Educational tests are now an established f eature of education in the primary grades. At Michigan the much talked of probation tests have been amply justified by their -results, even though these are not all that might be desired. While they have been found quite consistently to confirm instructors' diag- noses of delinquent scholars, they carry conviction otherwise wanting to an indignant or bewildered probationer. Like many other good things, the test: could be made much more useful if it were possi- ble to accord troubled students more~ thorough in- dividual inquiry and advice. Such ideal service, however, can be achieved only by enlargement of the' staff of examiners suffi- ciently to 'extend individual consultations to all stu- dents. The Deily would recommend that the ens tire sophomore class, should be so "experted" .- though without compulsion - in the course of each college year. With appropriate entrance ex- aminations to determine doubtful cases, incoming freshmen can 'be steered sufficiently intortight paths by a corps of senior advisors, as is now done. The main need of the freshmen, beyond rudimentary curricula suggestions, is simply to be exposed to University standards and ideals -- plus certain Sig nificant accessories for hardy specimens. Eery student who escapes faculty probation, however, at some time in his sophomore year should hav'e the 'benefit of a. personal examination or test for aptitude and ability, and prof essional advice- ir planning his subsequent course of study. Both the students and the reputation of the University - not, to mention the outside business and pro fessional world- would profit greatly in s'ubsequent years through such scientific inquiry and counsel as an~ intergral part of higher education.

'Trouble wasl brewing. (Editor's 'Note.-"Trouble". was not his son or- an- employe, but is an -abstract-noun the su- perlative of which is "murder" or "expulsion from school".) Anyhow, trouble was-'brewing. But the brewer had a partner, the most even-temn- pered manr in town -- always mad. This'partner had only one hobby, and that was a specifl vat of amber beer 'which he greatly admired. On the day of our story he' was pottering around ' this favorite vat. He gazed at it for a. long time, and then leaning over the' side of the vat, tried to get a taste of the liquid. But alas, balance and cor- Ipulency do not travel together, andf before he knew it, the poor man tumbled headlong into his beer. -The brewer who had long been vexed at his part- ner's- peculiarities, was greatly amused by the oc- currence, and after his partner had- managed to climb out of the vat he said mercilessly, "It serves you right.- You've had a terrible grouch on all aft- 'ernoon." "That's a -slanderous' lie !" excclaimed the coypu- lent' partner -as; he rinsed the -beer fromi~ his 'clothes. "On the contrary, I've been utri the best of spirit:" - Flnhis.
