The day-workers are represented by the dotted line, and consist of those who were too dull or slow to make piece-work. When the results of the tests are represented in this way, their practical significance for the employment office be comes immediately apparent. On the basis of their per formance in the tests, the day-workers and piece-workers separate themselves into two distinct groups, the day- workers on the right and the piece-workers on the left. The nearer the curves approach the left, the quicker and better the work in the tests. This is shown by the numbers on the horizontal line. These numbers, as has been stated, express the number of seconds taken to do the test in cluding corrections. The day-workers, for the most part, took so many more seconds that their curve is very far to the right. Now, if the employment manager had taken as the basis for selecting applicants the time represented by the points at which the two curves cross, what would have been the result? The applicants represented by the larger curve would have been accepted while those rep resented by the smaller curve would have been rejected. In brief, those applicants who subsequently proved their ability by becoming piece-workers would have been selected, while those who subsequently proved their
