Missouri Catholic Educator
Would Classify Children Ac
cording te Mentality
The use of lntclltscnen (csts In Cath
olic schools nnd the claFlficntlen of
children according te mentality rather
tlinn age was advnNiled by Brether Jo Je
seph vWn'drnn. of Klrkwoed, Me., nt
the fourth day's meeting of the Cath
olic Kducattetinl Association, held tilts
morning In the Cut het te (I Iris' High
Scheel, Nineteenth nnd" Weed streets.
The .tpenker scored the "radicals" in
modern education who claim 11 "ntura
tlnn point" of knowledge may be
reached.
"In these, days the result of tests
are n crrellaiy te efficiency work in In
dustry." he s-tld. "One greuji. the ex
tremists base their work en brand
new theories that leave out the spiritual
apects. They make no nllewance for
developments due te environment nnd
lurrenslng age nnd experience. For
tunately, they nu; few in number.
"Anether group finds that the most
successful processes are these which
tench the child te compare and measure:
te judge his Miclnl, ph.vsical and mentni
environment, nnd te have 11 sense of
geed nnd evil. These factors have al
ways been e-sentlal In Catholic edu edu
cateon: nowhere ere they mere im
Pt tn tit than In the teaching of re
ligion. "The methods of mensuilng result
of education tinist he kept nhead of
civilization. A e must hnve geed tests.
With equalized groups of scholars, there
Is better it egress, and the' teachers de
net have se much trouble. It hns been
well said that In an uneipiallzcd class
group the lower iiarter of the students
arc m stifled, while the tipper qunrtcr
are bored."
The army intelligence testR were
termed by the sneaker as "all right for
wartlnin conditions," but net educn educn
tlennl." The Bcv. Edward ft. Jerdan, of the
Cnthnllc University of America nt
AVnfhingtnn, spoke en the "Develop
ment of Thinking Tower," in which he
urged the tenching of pupils te think
for themselves.
"FOREIGN PAPER MONEY
05
Europe is flooded with paper money. Owing te
the scarcity of geld and silver, even the smallest
denominations are paper. Te the American visi'
ter the annoyance of handling such small de
nominations in paper is increased by the fragility
of the paper. It tears en the slightest provocation.
In every handful there is always one note in two
or even four pieces. Such money commands but
little respect and receives little.
It is a pleasant contrast te feel notes like the
American dollar, which has shown ever and
ever its remarkable wearing qualities, which, can
be folded and refolded, washed and ironed, and
remain intad:.
