In Puerto Rico and each of the U.S. Virgin Islands, stationary steam engines survive on their original foundations and stand in testament to the long history of sugar production in the American territories of the Caribbean.

Level of Difficulty and Consistency of Performance in Anagram Solving
Changing the levels of difficulty of anagrams and/or the requirement that solutions be verbalized affected the level of performance. S s improved with practice, women being superior to men. Consistency of performance under these circumstances needs further study
Learning Factor in Anagram Solving
The role of immediate learning to solve anagrams in lists of items of varying difficulty was studied. Observed learning was small ( N = 30); men scored somewhat higher than women. Correlations among difficulty levels were lower than expected. The study only partially replicates one by Sargent
