The contribution of the philanthropists
none is more respected, more admired or more closely followed with affection by parents and public than is that of teacher. Today as one hundred years ago the teacher is the heart of the school. A second contribution on the part of parents has been the granting to education of freedom to build, to experiment and to develop the school systems of today.

Age‐grade‐sex percentile norms for some educational tests
Standardized tests have become so firmly fixed in our educational thinking that no one need make apology for offering data to be used by those who are working with tests. During the last few years we have been;flooded with tests of all kinds. Some of these are good and, with further modifications, will survive.
