THE MONDAY FEELING.
Professor Winifred Cullis, lecturing on “ Industrial Psychology Applied to the Home,” seems to me to be unduly confident (says a London Morning Post ■writer). The “Monday morning feeling,” w r e learn, is a definite scientific fact, and. if a diagram of output were to be made, we should find that Monday was not at all good. Saturday was equally poor, Thursday and Friday were merely so-so, but that Tuesday and Wednesday were excellent. Thus, wc find, foursixths of the working week can bo relied on for getting on with the job, which surely is a calculation more optimistic than coldly scientific. ' Personally, from a wutle experience of plumbing, bricklaying and other cognate industries, I think a properly drawn np graph would indicate that the last 10 minutes of every working day would show' a concentrated effort in speed in the packing up of tools and implements.
