of poor fam ilies.
In one of their experiments children were asked
to solve a puzzle which involved the use of a lot of
small coins. The children thought the object was
merely the solution of the puzzle, when it was
really to see whether the children would steal any
of the money. The results led to the general con
clusion given above. In one case, when 230 children
in an orphanage were given the puzzle, all bat six
returned the money boxes with the contents intact.
When the same test was given to 100 children in an
exclusive private school, one-sixth of them took
money from the boxes.
Here is another interesting conclusion, applying
to individuals regardless of social class; The more
intelligent a school child is, as a rule, the more
honest. That’s natural and inevitable, when you
think it over* The more Intelligent a person is, the
more lie is apt to realize that “ honesty is the best
policy.”
“Sour Sunday” Lavrç
Four Sunday closing bills for the District of
Columbia are now before Congress. They aim, as a
Washington correspondent says, to ‘‘close the na
tional capital tighter than a drum.” No movies, no
ice cream sodas, no gasoline, no dancing, ” no noth
ing” in the way of public entertainment.
The rest of the country usually cares little
what Congress does to the District of Columbia.
That curious political unit, in the United States
but not of it, is therefore handled often as a legisla
tive experiment farm for Congress to practice oa.
Other cities are pretty well satisfied to.have that
sort of practicing done exclasively «on Washington.
The purpose is praiseworthy, bnt practicability is
another matter.
The idea Is to stop worldly activities no people
will go to church. Bnt will they go to church then!
Or will they go out and provide new patronage for
the bootlegger, the gambling and other impious
institutions!
Instead of a revolutionary ban on worldly
Sunday pastimes, why not enlightened effort to
make them minister, wore than they do’ now, to
the moral and religious improvement of the com
munity.
Wedding Foolishness
Says Bishop Hickey of Rochester, N. Y., in a
pastoral letter:
“ With all earnestness we protect against the
practice of attaching objects of any kind to the car
or carriage awaiting the bridal party. We insist
that they may be allowed to leave the church with
the respect due to the place and the occasion. Nor
should this practice take place away from the
chdrch; but it should be totally stopped at all places
and times.”
Snch protests are called for by the curioua old
pagan practices which still persist in the midst of
modern civilization and which often make what
should be a solemn and happy ceremony a vulgar
test of endurance for the two principals.
Comic cartoon antics are ont of place at a wed
ding. They are seldom really funny in such a set
ting. Often they are brutal and cruel. But that niay
not deter a lot of modern cave-dwellers from still
playing the same old tribal tricks. Barbarism dies

Another ¡Balance of the use of airplane surveys
wan found recently when a power corporation in
Ohio, planning to run a transmimrion line from a new
big atation project, liad the whole region mapped
from the air.
The flying photographer took pictures of the ter
ritory for half a mile on oaeh side of the |>ro}x)aed
line over its entire route. The company then knew
all the possible obstructions it would have to meet
and nobody else knew the direction the line would
take until the officials were ready to bargain for
right of way. .

The Honest Poor
“ Poor but honest” is an absurd expression, if
we accept the results of experiments made by Colum
bia University psychologists. For three years they
have been studying the honesty of school children.
From their conclusions it looks as if ‘‘rich but
honest” might be a more logical way of putting it.
Children of families in good circumstances,
they find, are more prone to steal than are those
