[The second diagram appears to be a cross-section of the intestinal wall, and is horizontally oriented. The left region is labeled "gastric pit," and the right region, "Tubule of gland." Areas of the left region are labeled "Lumen," "Mucus (goblet) epithelial cells," and "Tunica propria." The right region has labels of "parietal cells," "chief cells" and also a separate cross-sectional picture labeled "tubule cut transversely." It conforms with modern diagrams of this area of the intestinal wall.]
At this time the Special Opportunity Class teacher (P. S. 165, Manhattan) rated C, on a school information blank, for a long array of "physical, mental, social, and moral traits," using a 7-step rating scale (1 being the highest scale).
Truthfulness Common sense Desire to know General intelligence Originality
Prudence and forethought Conscientiousness Self-confidence Permanency of moods Will power and persever- Desire to excel ance Cheerfulness and optimism Freedom from vanity and Leadership egotism Sensitiveness to approval or Sympathy and tenderness disapproval
Ratings of below 3 (average or below) were given for--
Health Fondness for large groups Physical energy Popularity with other children Musical appreciation Generosity and unselfishness Appreciation of beauty Mechanical ingenuity Sense of humor
At this time the author (L. S. H.), who had known C for two years, independently rated him on this same array of traits by the same rating scale technique.

The only striking differences between the two sets of ratings are in sense of humor and appreciation of beauty, in which C was rated low by the teacher and high by the author. It appears to the Editor, who also has a more or less intimate acquaintance with C, that a composite of these ratings, made when the child was 11 years old, gave an adequate portrayal of him as an adult of 27.
