when the selfish man, who has fixed himself
comfortably in car with his barricade OF bundles
around him. sees other persons get on and look
around for seats. he undergoes peculiar mental
nrocess' said Miss Cabot. He begins TO figure
out how he can pretend lie is doing the right thing
He thinks to himself: There other seats

These answers all illustrate the tendency of the
selfish person to try to deceive himself lie should
take Up the study OF ethics
Miss Cabot then took up another branch Of her
discourse. She said:
The modern tendency toward confused thinking
IS a mark Of moral degeneracy.
we need pure truth law much do a
pure food law.
1t is better to be honest in your dishonesty than
not to be honest az ali.
our modern long words tend 10 confuse thinking.
