Can he derive an implication, draw an inference, and see what im- plications and inferences dc not fol- low? ”7. Has he a sense of values by which to feel, to appreciate, to recoz- nize the things worth while from those not worthy of our choosing? “These are, so far as methods is concerned, the questions I should like to ask about a sophomore seeking ad- mission to a Senior College.
