' There seems to be no other method of judging results that has proved satisfactory except written examinations. Possibly education of parents and others to the fact that examination test9 are only partially correct and that good students may fail while poor students pass, might help matters. One weakness of our machine methods is expecting every student to be equally expert in all branches of school work. Teachers know that while one boy excels in mathematics he probably can hardlv spell his own name, writes poorly and hi literature studies are as mechanical as his mathematical calculations. That student is probably cleverer and will make a greater success in life than the all-' round student yet he is the bane of the teacher's life. It is a duty to make him fairly proficient in something besides juggling figures in order that he may not in future life feel the handicap.
