There is only one "Moulthrop" Desk

~it is sold by the American Seating Company

The first movable chair-desk, the MOULTHROP, is today the most advanced in design. Important steps in its development have been patented. Therefore, anything less than MOULTHROP is something less than maximum efficiency.

schools, that is, from the standpoint of the course offered. The great difficulty in all correspondence work will always remain and that is the requirement of will power and perseverance to complete the course.-American Schoolmaster. Vocational Guidance for Maladjusted (Emily T. Burr). Investigations carried on from time to time have shown that certain types of non-productive individuals could be turned into commercial assets if directed into channels where the functions exacted of them would come within their capacities. In recent years applied psychology has been utilized in a great many large industrial corporations with the idea that the tests provided by this new science would prove or disprove, in advance, the vocational fitness of employees. This practice, however, has not as yet been universally adopted, and the majority of factory managers continue to apply the hit and miss system of selecting their workers. The fate of young girls, who have not been helped to find themselves through a schooling of this character and who through certain handicaps have gone from job to job without finding a place where their efforts could be utilized, has interested a group of public-spirited women in New York City, and an organization known as the Vocational Adjustment Bureau, has been created under the presidency of Mrs. Henry Ittleson for the purpose of helping these girls to find employment in keeping with their capabilities. During the year just ended, every one of the 946 girls examined by the Bureau was either sub-normal mentally, or neurotic, or psychopathic, or maladjusted to her environment, and each presented a distinct problem. The Bureau was able to find employment for approximately 40 per cent of these girls in forty-two different occupations. These occupations range from the various packing jobs in which 18 per cent of the girls were placed and in which the wage was from ten to twelve dollars per week to "demonstrating" where a salary of eighteen dollars per week plus commission was paid.-Emily T. Burr.

The Junior College (L. M. Collins). Various attempts to extend the scope and purpose of secondary education have led to the conclusion that it should cover the period of adolescent training, and that the content of the curriculum and the methods of instruction should be adapted to the needs of adolescents. This conclusion gave rise to the demand for a downward extension of the curriculum to include the seventh and eighth grades of the elementary schools in what has come to be known as the six-and-six plan, and more recently as the junior high school. The work of the professional schools should begin, and that of the vocational school should end, at the close of the adolescent period. Foundations should have been completed by that time. The evolution of the junior college is casually connected with the other constituent phases of the whole process of reorganization and adaptive changes. It is inseparable from three of these:

1. The adjustment of the university to secondary education.

2. The reorganization of secondary education to make it more effective, for all alike, during the whole period of adolescence.

3. The movement to equalize educational opportunities by the creation of lower and middle systems of vocational training. In the light of this, the junior college is neither a passing fad nor a mechanical device, to be fitted, somehow, into the inherited mechanism.-The Colorado School Journal.

Some Social Principles of Education (William R. Smithey). The entire school organization, administration, and program of work should provide for social development to the end that social co-operation and social good-will may be secured. The development of "we feeling" in pupils is at the

basis of all social education. If the school is to become a real social institution, it must provide that training that will cause the pupil to begin to identify his best welfare with that of the community and to realize that social unity is essential to social progress. Provision must be made also, if the school is to fulfill its social purpose, to provide for social "followship" as well as social leadership, for society needs intelligent co-workers as well as intelligent leaders. The school, in order to realize its purpose, should recognize the following principles:

1. The school is a social institution.
