The Society of Applied Psychology met in a public library on Wednesday evening. So when an open meeting was announced people had to spent a dollar to have the children taken care of and went to see what it was all about. The room was in the cellar of the library, inadequately lighted and furnished with folding chairs on which in brightly expectant attitudes sat eight or ten men and thirty or forty women with an average age of thirty-five or forty and mostly with that thin, drawn but determinedly hopeful look of half-starved dogs. The front wall above the shallow platform was covered with a huge American flag forming a background for a grand piano and a small deal table.
