Another Btudent who was an appli

"All these positions were won by

ONE HOUR TOO LONG.
Dr. W. H Pylo, profeBBor of pBychol
ogy at tho University of Missouri, at
a lecture recently delivered before the
Btudenta of that Bchool, declared that
the professor who lectures a wholo
hour at a tlmo without giving the
students time to react upon the mate
rial given them Ib waBtlng about half
hlB tlmo. V
Ho designates thirty or forty min
utes as tho maximum time during
which a student can recelvo new ideas
efficiently. "After that," he declared,
"the attention wanders, and tho ma
terial presented is not gniBped "
TheBe are truly encouraging words,
und It is our slncorost wIbIi that the
same theory will Bpoedlly ImproBB It
self upon tho minds of our own faculty
