Can you pass the test given to Bullitt County Kentucky 8th graders in 1912?

By Pablo Fanque, National Affairs Ed.

This is a test given to Bullitt County, Kentucky eighth graders in 1912. A copy was recently donated to the Bullitt County Historical Museum. A lot has changed in the intervening century. No one know what a passing score was. Apparently the test was partly to help determine scholarships to high schools.
