NOTICE A final, optional exercise for those prospective graduates who may he interested in measuring themselves and their classmates with a view to determining their fitness for the caps and gowns they hope to wear on Commencement Day. General Dnectwns: Go over the assigned reading carefully twice, using the whole and unspaced methods. Then, after spending ten minutes in reminiscence and medi ' tation answer without assistance of any kind the appended questions. Do not answer merely by yes or no, but give at least brief reasons for your answers. Be sure that you answer the questions asked and not something else. Papers need not be exchanged for correction, but arc to be handed in, — the instructor regarding them as strictly confidential. I. Required Reading. Many years ago the writer was told the following true stories by a farmer, who selected them from among his varied experiences with hired men, as em- ployees were then called. Let us designate the hired men as A and B. A had bought a watch and, after carrying it about for a few days, carelessly dropped it. The watch promptly stopped and refused to start. A took it to the jeweler from whom he had purchased it. After examining the watch the jeweler asked A whether he had dropped it. A rephed, No, assuring him that he had handled the watch very carefully at all times. The jeweler gave him the benefit of whatever doubt he may have had and replaced the mainspring free of charge. A, much elated over his success, told his employer about his experience with the watch. His employer said to him, ' So you really lied to the jeweler about it? Sure, replied A, I had to, for it would have cost me a dollar to have the thing fixed. B, after having finished his term of work, was paid oif and took his departure. After a few days he returned and in his best broken English (he was a ' foreigner, who had not yet become thoroughly Americanized) tried to explain to his em- ployer that he had been overpaid. He put two bills together to show how they had stuck together when he was paid, saying ' too much, this yours, — at the same time handing back to his astonished employer the extra bill. II. Questions. 1. Which of these acts--A s or B s — meets with the greater approval on your part? Why? Is your emotional reaction to either weak, moderate, or strong? 2- What do you think you would have done, if you had been in A ' s place? In B s? Are your answers to this question merely speculative or are they based somewhat on your past experiences? (Diaries may be consulted here, if you have forgotten.) ?. Classify the members of your section into two groups A and B according to their resemblance to the men A and B ranking them in each group ac- cording to your certainty as to which group they belong. Place in a third group C those whom you do not feel able to classify under either A or B. If after having known this group C for two years, you are still doubtful about them, in which group do they probably belong? -eight
