Child Psychology
Their Specialty
In City Vienna;
(Bv The Associated Press)
VIENNA, Austria, Oct, 8. —
Does your child reach eageriy
for a toy held before him?
What does he do when a bell
is rung and then handed to him?
These are among the tests meth
ods being developed in the psy
chological institute of the Uni
versity of Vienna by Professors
Charlotte and Karl Buehler and
launched as new bases for child
psychology.
Smart as a Monkey
One of their conclusions so far
is that an average 2-year-old
child has the mental develop 1
ment of an adult chimpanzee.
That conclusion was reached by
placing a toy beyond a child's
reach outside his play pen and
giving him a stick. His ability to
retrieve the toy with the stick is
a measure of his intelligence.
Laboratory for the professors
Buehler is the children’s reeeiv
ing station of Vienna, where
children from 6 months to three
years old are placed if their
home life is unsatisfactory.
Tests Tell Character
During a four weeks’ stay at
the station they are given “play”j
tests to determine whether some
mental or emotional difficulty re
quires training in an institution
or whether they are normal and
can be entrusted to foster par
ents.
One of the common tests is the
“grasping tests”. In this a de
sirable object is held before the:
child. Whether he reaches for it
or remains passive indicates his

Social tests are given children j
2 years old or over. Several
youngsters are placed together in
a play pen in which there is
only one toy. Whether they dom- j
inate the play and seize the toy j
for themselves or give it to an-1
other child, are, to the psycholo
gists, clues to their character and
social attitudes.

Trader Returns
Trip To Lower
Yukon Points
i i
—
The M. S. Trader, belonging ’o
Ira Rank and Captained by Pete j
Palsson and engineer Bill Biss- j
ner, returned to Nome today af
ter a two weeks’ trading cruise |
to lower Yukon River points.
It is understood the Trader will
now be pulled out of the water
for the winter layup.
The ship, stocked full upon its'
departure, returned without a
pound of trading goods left—in
fact, it was reported, every cruise
the small boat has made this sum
l me-T has been successful beyond
1 expectation.
| ‘Doc’ Preston, formerly of Nome
who now operates a trading post
at Pitkas Point on the lower Yu
kon, has just laid in a $17,000
stock of trading goods. His past
winter and summer trading was
unusually good, it was reported.
Chris Betsch of Marshal, was
reported to have done a $57,000
trading business during the past
year. From all reports, the fur
catch for the entire lower Yukon
River section, was unusually fine.
Precaution
A Scotsman (what again?) was i
stripping wall-paper from the I
walls of his house when a friend
called to see him.
“Well, Sandy” said the visitor, |
“Are ye goin’ to have new paper? j
“Na, na” replied Sandy, “I’m
just movin’ to another house."
