New Haven, Con., Sept 10--Fun- damentalists have less brain power than modernists, school children who know their Bible behave no better than brats reared with a minimum of Biblical {instruction and Heaven exists in imagination as a "wish fulfilment," scientists at the ninth international psychology congress were told. While a good many of the fond- est religious suppositions suffered somewhat at a symposium on re- ligious psychology, it was perhaps the extreme orthodox group that came in for the heaviest lambas- Religious Orthodoxy Suffers At Hands of Psychologists ting, Prof, Thoraas H. Howells, of the University of Colorado, reported on the fundamentalist-modernist investigation. His effort was to dis- cover scientifically the make-up of the individuals of each grouf. Oi six hundred college students after submitting them to a long series of tests, he selected 50 extreme con- zervatives in religion and 50 ex- treme radicals. There he had his material and he cut loose on it "through the use of a battery of psychological tests, supplemented with case-study findings." "Statistically significant evi- | "which indicated that the members 'of the orthodox group were: "1-Less capable in solving dif- ferent sorts of intellectual problems '. "2---More suggestible in five different situations, "3--Less willing to endure dis- tress in a competitive situation. "4---Less able to co-ordinate muscular activitly in a competitive situation." Prof, Howell's fifth and last fi ing was the only on which his Tun- damentalist group .excelled After finding them laking in both men- tal attainments and the willingness to suffer that ennobles martyrs, he found that they bested the radical religious group in being *'more able to increase efficiency in order to defend self in a dangerous situa- tion." : Prof. Pleasant R. Hightower, of Butler University, made the sur- prising report on the Biblical in- formation of young people in re- lation to their character and con- duct, His paper said that 3,316 pu- pils, including pupils in delinquent schools in the middle-western stat- es, were first tested for the Biblical knowledge, and then given a series of "conduct tests," which present- ed eight opportunities for cheating, two for lying, two for showing loy- alty and two for showing altruism. "The results obtained from the study," reported Prof. Hightower, "show that the pupils with high scores and those with low scores, in the test on Biblical information, reacted similarly on the conduct tests, thus indicating that there was no relationship of any conse- quence between Biblical informa- tion and the different phases of conduct studied, "Even though this position is entirely defensible," he added, "it does not show that the Bible or a knowledge of it is of no value in character building. It does indicate, however, very definitely that mere knowledge of itself is not sufficient to insure proper charac- ter attitudes." Less mundane wag the paper on the "Psychology of Post-Mortem Existence," by Prof. Haridas Bhat- tacharyya, M. A.,, B.L. (P.R.8.), head of the department of philos- ophy and reader in charge of the psychological laboratory, Dacca University, India. Prof. Bhattacaryya figurative- ly took his fellow savants by the hand and led them through all the different kinds of heavens and hells, imagined or divinely releaved to mankind, since the beginning. He described Heaven as imagined by the ancients, Heaven as a mod- ern "wish-fulfilment" hypothesis and Heaven as conceived from the odd experiences of cataleptics and mystics, "But," concluded the East In- dian scientist, "the objectivity of post-mortem existence is establish- ed by none of these factors." A paper by a Spanish scientist, Emilo Mira, of Barcelona, proposed startling methods of shocking people into emotional extremes in order that they might be studied more effectively by the psycholo- gist. "The author believes that the psychologist has the same right as the physician in arousing some un- Pay Your Fair Expenses From What You Save In This List Patronize your Rexall Drug Store during Fair Week and take advantage of the numerous money-saving specials offered. $1.00 Peptona Tonic ...79¢ $1.26 Camera ... 98¢c 50c Klenzo shaving cream 39¢ $1.75 Thermos Kit and Bottle b0c Syrup of Tar and ClO, sosvrssninees..B0¢ 60c Milk of Magnesia .. 89c 86c Cocoanut Oil shampoo 23¢ $1.19 ers ena, EXTRA SPECIAL---Narcissus Face Powder and Two Bottles Perfume, $5.50 value.

He has lost a great deal of blood, and shall die if a blood transfusion is not made to him at once. The speaker says he is an assistant physician that has come with two assistants for obtaining the blood of those willing to offer it. In order to cai- culate the quantity of blood that shall be removed from every 'given' he begs every pupil to write at once on a bit of paper 'yes' or 'np' and in the first case how many ounces of blood he is disposed to offer, bearing in mind that the maximum that can be obtained without great danger is 16 ounces." When the answers have been obtained a new message reports that the boy has died. The Spanish scientist said he found this piece of fooling very effective for getting real results. and that the "unrest'" aroused was very satisfactory. An elderly lady walked into a rail- road ticket office in Toronto and ask- ed for a ticket for New York. Sympathetic wife to husband badly hit by the death of Alexandrian, a race horse. "How delicate these race horses must be. Just fancy; scratched in the morning and dead the same evening." HON. J.E. THOMPSON SURROGATE COURT REGISTRAR OF YORK M.P.P. for St. David Was Former Speaker and Mem- ber. of Council Toronto, Sept. 11.--Hon. Joseph E. Thompson, Conservative M.P.P. for St. David and former speaker of the legislature, becomes registrar of the surrogate court of York county under an appointment an- rounced yesterday afternoon by Premier Ferguson at the conclu- sion of a three-hour cabinet meet- ing. The appointment was viewed by Conservative officials last night as a certain indication of an im- pending general election. It means, they pointed out, that Mr. Thomp- son's seat is vacated automatic- ally, and if the house were to «it before going to the people, a hy- election would be necessary.
