WHEN CHILDREN FIB English Woman Doctor Discusses Fault of Many Youngsters Thirty-five per cent of children between six and fifteen; years of age tell lies and believe in <thilir necessity. This is the opinion of u famous woman doctor who has made a special study of lying among children. She concludes that with children under five there is no conscious falsehood? that is, there are no false statements made with intent to deceive. Lies among tots of this age are simply products -of the creative imagination, r From five to ten years the child generally lies from imitation, or to avoid 1 punishment for some reproach from a playmate. In this case, he begins, in fact, an apprenticeship to the white lie, which he will often employ later in life, in society or business. Beyond the age of eight there appears what may be called the pupilary lie. The school -child lies to his teacher to make his school life more agreeable. The type of lie in which a companion is accused as a means of self-defense is quite rare among children less than ten years old, and is generally, a sign of lack of character. The teacher who discovers one of these defensive lies ought carefully to seek for its secret causes, and give his whole attention to developing a sense of responsibility in the young culprit, advises Pearson's Weekly.

Due to a great amount of thought and preparation, the occasion was mude one of the most unique and interesting af-i fairs of the sort that has ever been given here. Everything w??s carried out in "pirate" fashion?table , decorations, the costumes of the maids, j even the menu, followed this idea as closely as possible. Over one hundred und twenty-five t people attended the banquet, includ- ! ing the superintendent of the schools, j .J. Ci. Richards; the nrincipul of the J high school, Mr. McF udden, and all : teachers of the high school, besides members of both the upper classes. Before the crowd was seated at the tables, a "radio" program was pre- ; sented in the auditorium, in which | high school students imitated various | personalities of the radio and screen world. The pirate motif was beautifully i carried out in the banquet hall, with 1 a large ship as centerpiece, snd sever- ' al small boats all over the table. Mul- < ticolored balloons were flying from ! the lights, und the walls were covered with bunting of green and white, the class colors, and smilax. During the dinner Donald Barnes, vice president of the junior class, acted as toastmaster. Margaret (Joodale, president of that clask, gave a toast to the seniors, to which Emily Pitts, senior president, responded. Willie liaile toasted the football boys and Thomas Wooten the basketball girls. Marie Haile gave a toast to the faculty, to which Miss Etta Zemp replied. Beckham Russell gave a toast to the track team. The toast *to alma mater was given by Phyllis Carrison. Diversion and entertainment were provide# by Miss Hallie Carson, who sang, Alice DpPass, who read the jokes, and Mrs. Murchison, who gav a reading. The waitresses, who were girls from the ninth grade, dressed in their pirate costumes, danced several chorus numbers. After the banquet, the ensemble rose to sing "Alma Mater." The menu very fittingly carried out the pirate idea by including the following: Fruit cocktail, thousand island salad, tomato globes, pirates' spears, Olive hearts of gold, buttered buns, bits o'brine, ocean beverage, seafoam cream and treasure delights. This was under the direction of Miss Carolina Chalmers, head of the domestic science department of the high school.
