If an examination can be passed by copying another fellows paper or mothers name forged to an excuse for; absence, or articles taken from desks or cloak rooms, without being found out, that is so much to the good. Children are not solely to blame for some of their dishonesties, Dr. Forbush believes. The Honesty Book lists a; long cata-ogu- e of causes and occasions, one of the most prominent of which is carelessness! of parents about money at home, boasting of tricks' in business, or of graft, etc. The Honesty Bureau strongly advocates a definite and adequate allowance for each child, which le is permitted to spendhimself, under proper guidance. Other causes of dishonesty mentioned are lack of toys; gang influence; envy of richer schoolmates; portrayal of crime in the movies,- theaters and newspapers ; intermittent earnings, as of caddies- on a golf course, with thoughtlessly lavish tips, and bad examples by club members; injustice; revolt against authority and physical defects of many kinds. The dangerous age for men is the susceptible, headstrong between 18 and 25, Dr. Forbush says. That is the time period when they are easily led astray by bad company or false philosophies, and one of the worst of these false philosophies is that belief. Anything- is all rightif you can only get by with it. Married men are six times as honest as bachelors. Women are ten times as honest as men, according to the figures, but they do ten times as much Misers are almost always honest at least legally; Neither men nor women steal to save. They steal to spend the women for something to wear, the men because their wives or children are sick, or because! they themselves want to lead fast lives. And yet, though we are alarmed by the increase in the number and amount of thefts, I want to emphasize thatl we think he general standard of business honesty is rising. The overwhelming majority of men are honest. Only 1 per cent of $7, 000,000 in surety bonds has been defaulted. There is a definite movement toward truthfulness in advertising. And there are other encouraging signs. Tonight , Monday. : .
