How It WorI.ed During Var Durjng the war the fair-price com mittees were composed of representa tives of. the leading wholesale and retail Krucerj- mcrcimniu mm oioer aeaiers in . food commodities. Thei were rrnr.- sentativd'bodlefi of men. Ther w--.ro , ., i, , . . . . : Bpecially qualified by training and wipe- ' rience to- urrive at a fair average of the price of food. It is not possible that under nresent circumstances a committee of this kind can be organized in an count v in the state. In Philadelphia, the cornmittie was conirosed of presidents, secretaries and general njannger.s of leading gioiery corporations, chain stores companies and grocery firms. The committee performed its work In a thoroughly satisfactor. manner aui with disinterested patriot ism. The necessity for winning the war wb the inspiration. Now that the w al ia ended, and the crisis past, these men, I fancy, cannot be induced to undertake a similar 'work. Heavy Expense Iiurived One exceedingly important fact has been overlooked by Washington in tic; matter of these fair-price committees. rOt... c.rtnatu .f ,;.. ....!. .ln 1- ... the publicity givzn to their lists. With- out publicity, even thoinrh the commit tees were backed by legal authority, which they are not, Attorney (Jeneral Palmer's remedy would fall.

'J.ne law is inoperative ftgal nrocesBeH are vlrtuallv useless If Special Assistant District Attorney tire can succeed in reanimating an section of the old food administration I predict that its members will prove Indifferent and indisposed to act, as already the caso with a large number them who have boen annealed to di rectly by Attorney General l'almer. While remedial" measures of some Jtlnd may ultimately bo discovered they could be successfully operate only in the large cities. The country districts and smaller towns would still continue to suffer from the rural profiteer.

' DOS- these Open Evening o Whether psychological tests will help the coliegea of America to enroll the right sort of students was the llrst miu- ject discussed today by 'the convention commissioner, before the House com of the Association of Colleges undl'rc- mIttPC on immKrnton investigating paralory Schools at the University of reunsjlvnn a. , About .'100 educators were present, representing many of the great universi ties as well as smaller seuts of learning. Vice Provost .Tosiah II. Penniman, of the University of Pennsylvania, de livered tho address of welcome and the tesponso was made by Dr. Howard Mc l lenahaii, of Princeton University, president of the association. The first speaker was Dr. Edward 'Ihorndike, -if Columbia University. He msciissed the value of psychological tests similar to those used in arm ex aminations as n substitute for the old form of examination in admitting students to colleges and universities. Will Pnno Student's C'npacllj He expressed conviction thnt the psy chological tests would made it possible to find young men -with minds fitted for college training rather thau young men i who have been fortunate enough to hae advantages superior to their intellectual merits. He quoted examples from examina tion papers to show that the testi not only brought out what was in the mind of the student, but the student's capacity for leurning and putting his ' acquirements to use. I I'sj etiological tests, ho said, would i change the old system, which gives the : advantage to the fortunate man who I has been coached and would favor tin man with a real mind, even through be has not had much preliminary training". Doctor Thorndlkc distributed some of the examination papers among the educators so mar tuey couiu try me tests upon themselves. 1 Doctor McClciialian "Flunks" ' nnl mo f .stfHs.ii linn nflAH n o iili rtf the paper handed to him, laughingly rpnnrtprl thnt h did not niiR.

A mosquito thnt will not bltn unless attacked has Just been, discovered in Philadelphia by, Herman. Hornlg, city entomologist.',. Scientists slanglly call the nifweomer Acdcs Alropnlpus, but' his real name is Eddied This Eddie Is n regular fellow. He doosn't come pestering around your silken ankles on warm summer- eve nings. Nor docs ho stoop to wallop yon on the nose If you doze off without bene fit of cltronclla nnd netting. Ho sticks pretty closo to home and lets you enjoy .- yours. Eddie and his kind are born and bred nnd live and die about the rocks that show along the banks ,of the Schuylkill when tho river is low. There they live their simple, kindly lives, far from the smell of cltronclla nnd tho sound ot cursing. Hut, peace-loving as they may seem, I ,pt no "c Ihlnt that these quiet liltl inlets will not fight for all they hold dear. Always the last to strike, they strike savagely when aroused. With the courage of eagles or their larger New Jersey cousins, they set upon any one who stumbles among their watery breeding places iu the pot-holes of tho rocks.
