active interest in ancestry. People
thought affectionately of their par-
ents and grand-parents, but there was
little work in the construction of fam-
ily trees and preparation o family
histories. That is an older industry in
New England than in the South.
People are now generally doing this
because knowing that they belong to
"old . American stock" they want the
facts. They want the names of thiir
American ancestors, and to know
where they lived and died and what
they did. The growth of this tendency
may be due to the organization of
ancestral-patriotic societies, but it is
more likely that the growth of those
societies is due to the development of
this sentiment among so many Amer-
icans.

ter no such objective and outward in-
forming tests as are now applied in
enabling a suppliant student to be-
come acquainted with his own facul-
ties and failings. The change in this
science, which once sat apart reflec-'
tively like a mystical oracle, consult-
ing the stars instead of making re-
searches within the brain and body of
the human being, is suggested by the
comment made by Dr. Cattell, the
new President of the American Assoc-
iation for the Advancement of Sel-
ence, concerning the present-day,
"tests." They predict, he says, what
a boy can do even more accurately
than what he will do.
Professor James indicated the un-.t
utilized powers within reach of most
individuals who fail to realise their
capacities, being discouraged in their
effort like a runner who stops before
he gets his second wind. The psy-
chologist of today is disclosing the
energy concealed within, us as well as
revealing the barren stretches and
avoiding wasteful prospecting in these
mental areas. His science is bringing
to use the "untouched stock of men-
tal capital," and to enriching the life
not of the individual but also of the
race. It is an encouraging diagnosis
made by one of these psychologists
that the highest type of intelligence is
increasing and the lowest type dimin-
ishing. This may not be evidence that
a "new era is now at hand," as one
of these practical psychologists infers,
but at any rate it implies that most
men can do more. The unanswered
question is whether they will.

bers for membership in'the D. A. R.,'
that special means for passing on
membership petitions have been tak-
en. In a published report it is said
that about 1,000,000 women are eligi-
ble to membership in the D. A. R.,
that most of the 'eligibles may be
brought within the society in a few
years and that the present enrollment
is near 200,000.
Not only have the older patriotic
and ancestral-patriotic societies grown
in membership, but such societies have
multiplied. There is a disposition in
men and women to find a connection
between themselves and men who
lived in this country when it was a
collection of colonies and who helped
establish this republic. People who:
do this generally take a strong and
active stand for "perpetuating our in-
stitutions," and they construe' "patri-
otism" as adherence to the Ideals of
the men who established those insti-
tutions. This concentrates an active
and conservative force of Americans
as a check against the elements which
have no historic or traditional back-
ground or ignore it if they have, and
who would enter upon experiments in
government which would seem con-
trary to the purposes of those who
established the government. There is
a good deal that is important in or-
ganizing "old Americans" or Ameri-
cans of "the old stock."t
In this country from the first there
has been a feeling of family pride.
Among the early settlers were those
who were proud, though not boastful
of the position they held in England.
Later families began to found their,
pride on the station which a member
or members of their family gained in
the colony. "Old" families decayed
and new families bec me "old" fami-
lies. In some counties and cities new
families became old families in two
or three generations.
There has been a boom in genealogy
in the past quarter of a century. More
