)As we grow older we at times meet'
people who ;have no regard for the
troth, those who would as soon tell
a lie as the truth; Somehow there
comes into, our being 'a. feeling' of:
'distrust towards them, ` We know if
we tell one =tenth we must tell
another to over it up, so on we go

only go, so far when the whole story
will be broken down and we will be

Dishonesty is a sin; and the only

George Washington has given no a
very noted saying which should mean
a great deal to as: "I hope I shall
always possess firmness and virtue
enough to maintain what I consider
the most enviable of all titles, the
character of an honest man."
A very dine story appeared in the:
paper recently. A. Boy Scout found
some money and returned it to the
owner, who offered the lad a reward.
To his credit the boy replied to the
offeet, "No drank you, .Sir, I am a
Boy Scout and this as my good deed
for the day." Will eve ever cone

Ruskin 'declared that it was the
pride of his life to have been the
first traveller in Venice to discover
a famous inscription ort one of its
stones. One of ,the eldest churches
in Venice, built in the fifth century
stands ,near the Rialto bridge. On
its northern gable, which faces the
bridge, where the merchants met to
trade, there are carved jr Latin, the
following words which transcribed,
mean: "Around .his temple let the
merchants' Jaw be just, let not their
weights be false, nor their covenants
unfaithful," The inspiration for this
form of trading is found in a simple
cross which is set in the 'wall .above
it and on which is , inscribed this
prayer: "May thy cross, 0 Christ, be
the true safety off this place."
Those wards should mean as great
deal in omu` individual liven, The dross
cif Christ should be the standard
which we will wish to follow in our
daily work, •);C we are honest we will
have the best policy in life.
We say that all children pass
through the stage of telling what is
not true, If that is so then they
should be very carefully guarded and drastic that they will shrink from
taught so that 'they Will not continue
that'trice

P when they aro pant the
eaely days of childhood.
There are grown men and women
who do not seem to know when they
are telling , what is not true. They
have apparently never got over a
habit which they learned perhaps in
their early days. Parents need to to
very very careful in dealing with
their little ones when they are passing
through that stage. The fault map
be placed largely with the parents.
A ':child has told them something
which is not true and has been ptlim-
ished quite often to be ,hurt physic-
ally. In order to escape a similar
treatment again the child will refrain
from tailing the truth. Perhaps that
time he is not found out and se on
it goes. 'The child has made a mistake
and parents should so study their
chsldeen that they will know how' to
deal with these different problems.
Happy is the home where children
have no fear of coming to their par-
en+ts and telling them what they have
been doing. They know if they have
done wrong, ,punishment will be meted
out to thein but it will not be so
parents will talk quietly(.to their little
ones,. point out the sin they have
'committed and how it will grow on
them and at some time, if eontinuecl,
it may bring them under the law.

confidence of their children and in

of some parents towards
the little ones whore God hat given
into their care and with all due re-
spects to the laws of our co-untry, we
feel that imprisoninent in one of our
penal institutions is too good for
them. So often we read the advice
for parents not to punish their child-
ren when they are angry, So ' dead

to teaeh •them be sure that you can
set the example of your own honesty
before them. There is little use in
telling them to sap and do what is
true if you do not do it yourself.
Parents! think seriously of this, It
may mean the future life of your
child.
1Vlanbr of us have had good reason
to be thankful that we were brought
up in homes where Christ was given
first place and when He is. the Head

thing it is to be dishonest.

many of our boys and girls today
who are .helping edisablecl or elderly
people for . the very love of doing a
good deed for the ;day. They receive
a great deal more pleasure out of it
than those who are looking, for some

azk with Noah. The old patriarch
told hien that they had to go in two

ark as a lizard. So Iying incl sin
have been together ever riiic:s. Have
we ever sent anyone to the door or
telephone to say we were not in, when
we wore? That is just one example
of the many things we do. We are
not only lying ourselves, but we are
inducing others to do the same thing.
We may be dishonest not only in

procedure in our daily work. Perhaps
we weigh our goods a little light, or
