SELLING PSYCHOLOGY,
NEW AMERICAN CORPORATION.
America's leading scientists and pro- fessors have incorporated a company to well paychology to business, give every business man and woman "mental tailor- ing, and T-by: guaranteeing everyone scientifically suited to the kind of work each da expected to perform to add mahy. million pounds annually to the wealth of the nation. The president of Pay- chology Incorporated ** is. Dr. James Angell, the President of Yale University. The directors and other officers include the heads of Ameri:n's leading univeral- ties, colleges, and institutions, of techno. logy. The new corporation, it is claimed, is the first of its kind, and will entirely. change the methods used at present in the selection and training of men and women. Hitherto," says the prospectus," methods. that have survived from the pre-scientifia ers have been employed to select or dis miss, to send men to prison or to Parlia ment, but beposforth by the means of a paychological test it will be possible to determine infallibly whether or not a per- son is mentally and temperamentally suit ed to become a doctor, lawyer, financial magcate, clerk," musician, stenographer, or crossing-sweeper. Under the articles of incorporation the new enterprise" shall have power to enter into contracts for the execution of psychological work, to render expert services involving the application of psychology to educational, business, and other administrative problems.” The directors predict that the scientific con- trol of conduct will become of greater' economic important than the uses of electricity or steel. The corporation, in selecting ita own clerical staff, applied paychological tests instead of the usual ones The applicants were requested to fill in the missing words in certain sen- tatoes, the directions given to be followed quickly and correctly. The questions baked showed whether the applicant thought clearly or confusedly. "We could even test politicians for mental capacity, said one director, but he smilingly added, "don't think we will.” The profits of the corporation are to be applied to psycho- logical research work.

morning game, mily listen while amok-

Clergymen everywhere, observes the president of the club, are complaining that the members of their congregations prefer golf to church, As we cannot take golfers to the church, we have decided to bring the church to golfers.
CALLING A MAN AN ASS.
It does not do to call a man an "ass" in Austria, even though he is one. The Jaw takes the matter very seriously. Without considering the question of whether he epithet in justly applied or not, it holds that unfair damage can be done to a man's good name it some limits are not set on free speech.

“We experience great satis- faction in selling your brand and all our custom- ers appreciate very much its irreproachable quality" Quality is now of the first importance. Oceans of poor Whisky are flooding the markets of the world.

According to the prosecution the examiner anticipated the reply to one of his own questions by exclaiming:-"I know what you are going to any; that is what you learned SATURDAYS :- under Diwald Tell the ass that it is rub- bish." Dr. Diwald maintains that, this remark constitutes an offence against his honour. Dr. Wasak maintains that, although be used the term "as,” it did not refer to any particular person.
The case is arousing the keenest interest in the University At the beginning of the proceedings the Court was besieged by law students; most of whom were unable to get in.
BIRTH OF THE WORLD.
The Royal Astronomical Society's gold medal was awarded at the annual meeting at Burlington House, on February 10th, to Dr. J. H. Jeans for his work on cosmo-
gony.
Professor Eddington, in waking the award, said the medallist's investigations had led him to the conclusion, that Laplace's hypothesis of the development of the sainr system Irdina nebula might have to be abandoned. A daring theory of to-day was that our earth and the neighbouring planets were drawn out of

By its attraction a vast mass AGENTS for Hongkong of gaseous matter from the sun was pro- jected in the form of a long arm, which itsolf could have no stability, and, coales cing at various points, made the different planets. On this theory the solar ayatem had a catastrophia birth. It was not sug- gested that the production of a planetary system was the normal destiny of a star. Some thing like one-half of the stars were believed to be binary, or double suns.
