NEARLY all the great works of A art have been done to order. Most of the Greek temples and statues were let out on. contracts. Leonardo da Vinci, Michael Angelo, Giotto, and the great Renaissance men did most of their immortal ‘creations to order. It does seem that poems written for special- occasions frequently fall down and oftentimes ‘this has been true of music, but I ‘think this is because specially ar1 ranged occasions are usually not very - inspifing. Nearly all magazine articles are written to order and many of them are true literature. . Nw 4 OF COURSE it might injure the “male dominance;” but Hayes that would do him goed.

‘DR. KNIGHT DUNLAP, Univer- | sity of California psychologist, | has developed a method of learning
good habits and breaking bad habits which: he calls “negative practice,” that is, doing a thing the wrong way as hard as you can and, suddenly, find you do it the right way. For example, if you often spell. “the” on the typewriter “hte,” by : writing “hte” many times you suddenly find you, write it “the.” He has applied this to stuttering and other habits with marked success. In curing bad personal habits the ‘system must be carried ‘on under a psychologist.
