Clinics Held at University of Minnesota Reveal Startling Facts
PARTLY DUE TO THE WAR
Psychology of the Individual Student Being Carefully Studied
At a recent test, given three years ago at the University of Michigan among those students which were on probation at the time, only fifteen
n many department, said Dr. M. E. Hargergy, dean of the college of education at the University of Minnesota in an address to the students and faculty of the University on the subject, "individuality and the Educational Program," yesterday afternoon in Fraser Chapel."
"This only goes to show," continued Doctor Hargergy, "that the university professor is sadly mistaken in dividing all his students up into two groups; get their lessons, and those who they consider 'mentally deficient.'"
In a recent graduation exercise at the University of Minnesota one of the bystanders remarked, "You Americans have failed utterly in your education system. You have not developed intellectual leadership. Why even your system of handing out diplomas is factory-like."
"This is, in part true," said Doctor Hagergoy. "We are sending more students into the high schools and universities every year. We crowd them into classrooms in droves. But there are two factors which prevent us from crushing individuality through the social pressure from the outside and the infinity variety, individually, of the students themselves."
The dean brought out the treemess advance which education has made in the past few years; how now we have departments and separate offices of interest in every possible location or line of activity outside of school.
in the past, the question of 'individuality' of the child, of the student, was psychologically vague," said Doctor Hagwerger. "However, we have developed a study of individual differences. Again the war has been thought to have increased our store of knowledge along the line of individual differences by means of the in-depth tests. This is untrue; but the war was only the result of which had been known before its break. The war extended the psychology to the individual; the war 'spectacularized' the whole study."
In the clinics which are held at the University of Minnesota, said the dean, the extremes in intelligence are encumbered. By means of objective testing, we can work out objective way for the examination of special traits in individuals.
It used to be, the dean continued, that the teachers in the grades would sort out all those children they considered "sub-normal" and then their work was completed. However, it does not follow that mid-fits are men. Scores of women in the state reformed the curriculum intelligence tests. In other words, assumption of mental deficiency does not explain mal-adjustments.
"The intelligence tests have shown us words of knowledge," said Doeot Haggerty, "but it does not necessarily allow that all pupils who rank high in the tests make the best students. In fact, many of this type rank particularly how when it comes to school work. Gifted children relied on special education and eventually there can be worked and plans for the betterment of their education. One defect with the present school system is that it does no keep the gifted student at the height of his capacity."
"And, after all," said the spoken in summing up "there remains some thing always which the intelligence tests cannot solve or work out a substitute for, and that is the p-wer of the personality of the teacher."
D. Hagerty, who has been asked to address the State Administration Council in Toreka soon, is an educa-
and psychologist of note, and is

Evidence Test.

SCOTTISH RITE ORDER
PROVIDES SCHOLARSHIP
Five Centers to Have $1,000 Each to Aid Worthy Students
The Supreme Council of the Scottish Rite Masons, with headquarters at Washington, D. C., has recently decided to use a portion of its general fund for the purpose of encouraging education and promoting American citizenship. The organization understood, will be appointed to the State of Kansas for these purposes.
There are five Scottish Rite centers in Kansas, namely Kansas City, Lawrence, Topkea, Wichita and Fort St. Disburders of this fund will be apportioned to each place. The amount apportioned to each town will be about $1,000.
The general object is to assist students in need of financial help. It is not the intention to make of the fund a charitable donation, however, from L. Bardick. Dean of the school is also involved in the local management of the local funds, is of the opinion that the general plan followed by the Committee on the Student Loan fund is advisable. He thinks it better to lend several amounts to different students instead of lending the whole sum to one
stead of lending the whole sum to one student.
As soon as the money has been paid back it will be lent out again. Thus a perennial, revolving fund will be established. In four years $20,000 will be available to lend to struggling worthy students.
"The recipients of the loans are expected to pay the money back when they can. No interest will be charged on the loans. The fund is not a loan from Mason, but is open to all legal families of "Kansas," said Dr. Burdick.
At the present time between $400 and $500 is in Dr. Burdick's keeping interested students may see her at Dick or Registrar leonce O. Foster.

POINCAIRE ADVOCATES AMERICAN FRIENDSHIP
Premier Outlined His Platform to Chamber of Deputies Wednesday
SAYS GERMANY MUST PAY
Favors Acceptance or Refusal of Conditions of Cannes Conference by Delegates
Paris, Jan. 19.—Maintenance o close relations and an uncompromising attitude toward Germany are essential factors. Fromer Raymond 'oincare's sole aim
Poinciana outlined his platform to the Chamber of Deputies in *n* speech today just before calling for a vote on legislation formmed after the resignation of Ripley.
Poincaré was widely cheered as he made his speech. The deputies leaped to their feet applauding and shouting.
"We must maintain the most friendly relations, especially with the United States, which contributed so much to the victory and has just gripped Washington conference striking prose of noble sentiment," the premier said.
"Foilcare declared that the outstanding necessity was to exact from German respect for the terms of the mandate. The German must fulfill her agreement, even in event she defaults, the first step must be the establishment of allied control over the German budget and control the insurance of paper money.
The present penalties imposed on Germany for non-payment must be continued and new penalties exacted if "necessary."
With regard to the proposed eco nomic conference at Genon, Poincaré said he would insist that the conditions laid down by the Cannes conference be accepted or refused by all delegates. Unless there are precise constraints on this point, France would "reserve liberty at option" with regard to decision of the Genor conference.
R. O. T. C. HOLDS BANQUET
University Unit Plans Drive for Members Among Freshmen
The University R. O. T. C. unit met at Wednesday's Wednesday event for its monthly banquet. Plans for a membership drive were discussed, and an interesting program was presented.
One of the biggest surprises of the evening was a reading by little Miss Dorothea Simons. Paul Hauches drew a gale of laughter with his presentations, "at they used to be." His part of the program was entitled "Babies."
Major Schultz, connected with the chemical warfare bureau, gave an interesting talk on the chemical warfare service in the late war.
One of the most startling statements which he made was that even in 500 B.C. C. the Spartans were using gas against the Athenians. And in 400 B.C. they used their famous "Greek Fire" which has been lost to the area.
"People have a misconception of the service itself," said the major. "It is much more humane than the major think. In fact, the idea of gas warfare is to put the enemy temporarily out of commission, and to gain objectives with the least casualties possible."
Guests for the evening were: Mrs. W. C. Simons and daughter Dorothea Major Schultz, Prof. John E. Hallen of the School of Law; and Misa Martína de Castro, A vote taken on Monday did not the monthly banquets should be continued, received an instant and unanimous affirmative.
"You can't run an army with just the infantry, or the artillery, or any other single unit. It must be complete co-operation on all sides and especially in the putting over of a gas attack."
Extensive and elaborate plans for the drive for new members was presented by William McPherson, cadet major and the men were divided into groups or small units for the purpose of interviewing every freshman in the University as a prospective member.
Genuine Filipino music from the fingers of Filipino students received a storm of applause, and a violin solo. Again, Agoncali, accompanied by Ms. Martha

and his teachers are beginning to
come back, or some lack, or
