' Egch Sex Has Its Own Superior X Mentality "Mental differences are as fre quent and as striking in the human family, as physical variations." said Professor I. N. Madsen of the Uni versity of Omaha, addressing the Omaha Woman's club at its open meeting Monday afternoon in the Y. W. C Aauditorium. , "We don't need tests to ascertain geniuses.5 nor to detect the idiots, but there is a wide range of mentality in between which it is very advantageous for many purposes, to be able to classify." ... v The first real intelligence tests were definitely established in 1906, according ( to the speaker. .These were individual tests, however, and, therefore, slow. A need for group tests was obvious, and it was not long after that they were worked out Their greatest service was felt during the recent war. The tests applied to army men were, for the purpose ot determining ability to learn easily, to comprehend and fol low instructions, to adapt one's self to a new situation and to analyze a new situation. Upon application of the tests it was found that army men prove to be 11 per cent superior, or very superior; J5 per cent normal, or slightly above n6rmal; 22 -per cent low average and 32 per cent in ferior. This same standard applied to high school seniors brought the following results:. None fell below average, 49.6 per cent were very su perior, ,36.5 per cent superior, 12.3 per cent high average and i.o per cent average. Mr. Madsen explain ed that the tests did not involve any subject matter which would give high school students an advantage, but rather that a high school course is in one sense a process of selec tion, and the boy who reaches his .senior year is usually one who start ed with good native intelligence. Very practical use was made of intelligence' tests in the army. "In many instances," Mr. Madsen told his audience, men were entirely re jected because they proved to- be mentally inferior. In such cases in dividual tests were made to bear out the group test A man's work was to some extent determined by his response to the tests. A soldier who was sub-normal in intelligence was assigned to-a different duty than one who tested normal or superior." . A A decided resentment was noted when Professor Madseir exhibited charts showing that ' boys invari ably tested out higher than girls of the same age or school grade under the army tests. Sensing this feeling, Mr. Madsen explained that the army tests were favorable to men and were designed for armynot general purposes. He conceded that each sex has its superior mental quali ties. This- brought round of ap plause from the feminine gathering. "These intelligence tests can be made of great every-day value," concluded the psychologist They will enable us (1) to fix up our school curriculum to meet the needs of the pupils; (2) to segregate the mentally defective; (3) to deal with the morally delinquent in advance, knowing the relation between moral delinquents and mental deficrents (4) to aid in juvenile court work. Miss Millard Entertains. Miss Jessie Millard entertained in formally at luncheon at her home Wednesday.

Paris The great contrast be tween the misery of the devastated area of France -and the pleasure mad Deauville has been commented on by many American buyers who are at present in France.

Lesion in Scientific , Complexion Renewing Everyone haa a beautiful akin under neath the one exposed to view. Bear that in mind. and it ba easier to undeintand Ithe correct principle in acquiring a lovely (complexion. Nature is constantly shed- dine the top skin in flaky particles like dandruff, only much smaller in size. In ab normal conditions, or in advancing ase. these particles are not shed as rapidly aa in robust youth. The longer they remain the more soiled or faded they become that's the immediate cause ot a "bad com plexion." t It has been discovered that ordinary mercolized wax,'' to ba had at any drug: store, will absorb these worn-out particles. The absorption, while hastening Naturae work, goes on gradually enough to causa no inconvenience. In a week or two the trans formation is complete. The fresh, healthy hued, youthful underskin is then wholly In evidence. You who are not satisfied with your complexion should get an ounce of mercolized wax and try this treatment. Use the wax nisjhtly. like cold cream. washing it off mornings.
