RANDPA ROBERT GROSSBAUM was tailcing to his son, Robert Jr., a handsome man oi about forty. A Son, i've had a happy and suc- cessful iiieg and i am proud oi my children and their children. But it is becoming harder and harder for me to adjust myself to-H A Here Ruth, a sweet sixteen, came bouncing into the room. Uh, Dad and Grand- dad, i'm to be graduated from Evander with honor. isn't that wonderful? Just ioolc at my report card. A Grand- pa Grossbaum tooic the card nervously and iooiced at it. Tears almost came to his eyes as he said, My poor crazy darling. Here you have three subjects.

A Here Robert Jr. broice in. NYou remember, Dad, the old lie detector they were experimenting with about sixty years ago. Vveii, the schools have extended the principle for use in objective measuring. The machine is rather complicated, but the general idea is simple enough. A Yes, said Ruth. The students' seats are connected electrically with the teacher's desi: under which is a great revolving drum to record and time all the reac- tions oi the students during the period. At the end ot the term. each student comes to the desic, inserts his bianic re- port card in a slot, presses a button over his name, puiis a lever, and out comes his card with his record. The teacher doesrft even have to copy marks. A HiViy, my. my, gasped Grandpa. HVVhat does the teacher do?U A UVVell, Grandpa, it's like this. On the front wail is a great roii-chart, turned electrically and displaying, bit by bit, the material to be mastered during the period. On the teacher's deslc is a icind oi egg cup with a little bali in it, iiice a ping-pong bali. When we are ali quiet in our seats, a bell rings. Then the teacher presses a button: the iittie ball rises and moves in a smooth circle above the class. The chart begins to unroii. The first thing displayed is a great cipher. Any students who have not prepared their lessons, are terrified at the sight. Their emotions are re- corded and the little bali bounces down on their heads. The teacher notices this, stops the machine, and sends these
