LoosePromise Making. -


lS OeainS, tnen no rauly C8n be
found II expectations are disay-

terms in which engagements are
usually made.
You make contract with your
tailor. He says, 'T will deliver
the article on or before such a
day" No conditions attached. No
indefiniteness in the terms Of the
engagement. Very likely he Goes

to keep the engagement or not

the stipulation is made.

We can perfectly well under

there is just crook enough In It
to prevent Its being straight. For
tailor you can substitute grocer
or painter or plumber, or almost
any service Of that character.
1t is not what can exactly be
called an outrageous lie, but it
has got the genius of lie in It.
1t is careless handling of the
truth. If It is not a deliberate
intention to deceive, it is a care
less Indifference as to whether or
not deception Is going to be the
result.
This loose habit of making def

Of fulf1llment can easily be broken
up by saying to your plumber, for

You have definitely promised
to come and do the Job at such q

at that time I shall be displeased
and shall give my next job to an

Why Should the Taxpayers Use

Atlanta Georgian. [volume] (Atlanta, Ga.) 1912-1939, 1913-11-20

NILE line OF honesty IS an eX-
ceedingly straight one. 1t
sometimes gets badly
crooked in the use, but is by ma
ture rectilinear and is the short
est path between duty and per-
Torrance. Small dishonesties are
Of the same nature as big ones.
and by cultivation easily grow
into big ones.
There is no halfway between
straight and crooked, and if we
do not begin by being dishonest
in & small thing there is no dan
ger of our graduating into a
large scale deceiver or swindler.
All of that is very simple and
fashioned.
Much is said about the new
morality, the new thought, the
new art, the new religion, and so
forth, but the old is pretty good.
1t has stood the racket for a good
while, and we had better stand
by 1t and not fling ourselves away
on fancy innovations till we are
quite sure that they will make as
good a show in the working as
what we received from our ia
theirs and grandfathers.
There are forms of inconspicu-
Gus dishonesty worth mention,
which are so frequent as to be
almost respectable, but which
loosen the joints of character and
occasion no end of annoyance
and some times even distress.
One is that of engaging to do
given thing at specific time and
then failing to do it at the time
promised, and postponing It to a
later hour or day, or even not do
ing It at all.
When a promise Of that kind IS
made conditionally, with no posi-
tive assurance attached to it, and
with only the understanding on
the part of the one making 1t that
he will do his best to meet the
wishes Of the party with whom he
