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.
R. B. Creager, Republican national
committeeman of Texas, has lost
his $500,000 suit for libel against the
Crowell Publishing company.

Junior-Senior Here
Was Lovely Affair
The annual junior-senior banquet
of the Camden high school was held
last Friday evening, in the large hall
of the. school building. 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.
