Once In a while a college professor shows up the lamentable lack of knowledge which his pupils have in elementary subjects with which. It would seem, they ought to be well acquainted. Mrs. Florence Woolston, In the October Survey, has gone back a little fur ther and Interviewed several hundred school children who had left school to go to work it seems as if every child In New York ought to know who Is the mayor of the city, but In answer to this question ten had correct replies, twenty-thre were uncer tain and sixty-seven were entirely Incorrect In their Idea. Those who were rated aa cor rect could name the mayor and Indicate his office. Such answers as "He takes charge of the New York police force," "He looks out for fhe city," "He rules th boroughs," were classed as sucoesefui. Uncertain re- plle, were tno wh0 couid name the mayor but coul(i not xpian the office. "He ,ooka out for aut0 speeding and the Inter (at 0f the court" and "H appoints po- utical jobs." From these who failed to " . ..i .v.. ,,, ,unuu wn, following; "George Washington Is the mayor of New York" and "Th mayor Is John D. Rockefeller.." The first question, "Who; Is our presi dent?" was by far the most successful. Only five of the 100 failed to answer correctly. The fact that a change of administration Occurred during the winter may have had some Influence. Campaign talk about Pres- Ident Taft probably made hia name fa- miliar. There was no hesitation In naming "Teddy KooseveiU" wun regara to me Work of the president there waa less unan lmlty In the replies. If the Idea of national leadership was expressed the answer was reaarded aa aorrect.
