Our Responsibility for Mrs.
 Grundy's Power for Mischief

C.. M. Hodges in Philadelphia North American)
 Do you know that many misunderstanding and arrangements and much worry, grief and consequent misfortune result from nothing more than the passing along of thoughtless unpleasant remarks?
 And that in most cases these remarks are so trivial as to be unworthy of notce
 Maybe your experience made you aware of this. At any rate, it is fact, and big one, since it has so much to do with the relations existing between man and On these relations depend the progress and welfare of us all
 Not long ago a successful business from Missouri was talking about this thing
 Very many differences grow out of the spread ing of trivial unpleasant remarks he said. Some people seem always ready to carry them have made 1t rule to forget the unpleasant things said to me about others and l have taken pains to remember the pleasant ones and pass them along at the earliest opportunity If A regards B with suspicion, and I can tell A pleasant remark B has made about him, then his suspicion is disarmed and they are the way friendly relations"
 It is a habit that be formed easily, and know of nothing which pays better or more un- failngly
 To estimate the unhappiness and destruction that are born of spreading unpleasant unkind remarks in business social life is beyond the power of any yet many of know from experience, how often happiness is thus marred of charred
 And know how often borne is changed just enough to make it sound than the one with whom it originated ever intended it should. This change may be the result careless ness or tendency to eXaggerate, but the talked about or criticised doesn't stop consider these things
 Also how often the first speaker had no inten- ton of his or her words reaching the the spoken about.
 Here again is a condition that does not count in the end There is indeed, great justification the old saying that the road Hades $ paved with good intentions.
 You yourself know how good it makes you feel to hear you have been well spoken of by some one you thought didn't have a kindly feeling for you,
 You know how it makes you want to cover up those mean little thoughts you may entertained for that same some one; how it caused you remember that. after all know
 Suppose never did know any but the pleasant and kind things said of us
 Suppose that at today every and woman would resolve again to repeat to any one any unpleasant thing said about any one,
 How long do think it would be before men and women stopped saying unpleasant things?
 And can you think of a finer resolution one that would be more productive of comradeship and happiness and peace and all the things
 Of course it could be done!
 It could be done without any greater effort than the exercise of little kindness part each of us-a little changing of the Golden Rule from theory to practice.
 I cannot think of anything that would mean more-can you?
