AUBURN ELEVEN To
LOSE SEVEN
REGULARS
Coach DOnahue May Also Lose Thig-
pen, AlI-SOuthern Guard-BOys Are
Going at the Work With Best Pos
sible Spirit.

AUBURN, Sept 24.-About seventy
five candidates for the football team
have been reporting each day to Coach
Donahue and his ASSISTANTS and have
been put through light work, catching
punts, forward passes, blocking, dunn
my tackling, etc.
The boys have been going at the
work with the best possible spirit, and
it is believed that some good men will
soon be developed to fall into places
made vacant by the passing of the vet
Grams. Arnold, Newell, Lockwood,
Christopher, Wynne, Eslinge~ and
Sparkman will not return this year,
and these losses "hit the team hard. ,
Auburn will be fortunate indeed if
Mike Donahue can find among the
scrubs of last year seven men who
will be able to fill acceptably the
places left by the passing of these
stars. Especially hard is the loss of
Ted" Arnold who ran the team Lass
year which COPIED the championship.
The fact that the return of Thigpen,
an all-Southern guard last year, and
Bull Kearley is still in doubt adds
greatly to the uncertainty of Auburn'S
ability to cleanup" with her OPP
ponents this year.
Promising linesmen from the 1913
scrubs and class teams are c. C. Rob-
inson, Sample, Thigpen, Howe, Fricke,
Echols and Major. A very strong "out-
law" team of ineligibles has been
formed, and is in charge of assistant
Coach Penton. 1t consists of the two
Boomers, brothers of w. S. Bonner,
captain of a former Auburn team;
Ralph Davis, brother Of captain of a
former Georgia team; Burns, brother
of F. C. Burns, former Auburn center;
Scott, of Tennessee; Guess, of Missis-
sippi and Martin. These all are husky
fellows, but will not be able to play
this year on account of the one-year
rule.
If Thigpen and Kearley decide to re
turn they will give decided boost to
Auburn's prospects.

New York, Sept 24.-Nothing has
been a greater disappointment to the

THE LIE COMMONEST OF FAULTS
If the Habit Is To Be Cured Instead of Treating the Symp
toms the Parent Should Look for the Cause
in the Childs Mind.

had had; this was apparently neces-
sary to match Herbert's younger
brother. But where is he now3" she
was asked. "Oh, he's dead; the ele-
vator door was standing open in our
house one day-you know, we live IN
an apartment house-and he looked
down and fell and was killed"
The whole story was pure fabrica-
ton, including the original existence
of the brother. Whereas with an
older child it would be well to draw
attention to the untruthfulness OF
such a story, and to the distress it
must cause others to hear it told so
nonchalantly, 1t would not be wise
to treat this kind of offence in a
younger child as though it were
grievous fault.
Instinct for Self Preservation.
Some lies are caused by the child's
desire to brag or to show off. On the
other hand, child's timidity or mod
esty is just as likely 10 find shelter
behind a lie. As the child grows old
err the instinct for self-preservation
will give rise to whole host of lies,
for. like his savage ancestors, he feels
that it is necessary to deceive his enc
mics, although he must be loyal and
truthful to his friends. The number
of lies and the kind of lies that ap-
pear at this stage will depend upon
the antagonisns that have been made
rather than upon any conscientious
scruples. If the parent has the child's
confidence in all matters, he may still
lie to the policeman or to the teacher.
First Rule, Treat Causes.
In the parents attitude toward the
lies of children there are three things
that need to be kept in mind. First
of all, when it comes to treating for
lies, treat the causes, not the symp-
toms. If it is Dragging that causes
lies. attack that; make the braggart
appear ridiculous. If it is timidity,
strengthen the child's self-reliance.
If it is faulty perception, there is need
for sensory and muscular training,
and so on.
Retain the chIld's Confidence.
In the second place, give the child
as few occasions for lies as possible.
Avoid antagonizing children; retain
their confidence as long as possible.
Some people have way OF asking
question that Immediately challenges
the child to give an untruthful an
swer or to defy the person to find
them out.
Set q Good Example.
And the third problem is perhaps
the most difficult of all. Set the chill
dren a model of sincerity and truth
fulness. The hundreds of questions
that children ask should be answered
as carefully as possible and in all
earnestness. The questions may ap-
pear childish" to adults, but to the
child they are not trivial. To answer
their questions carelessly is to do
two things: 1t destroys the child's de-
sire to ask questions, which is bad
enough; and it destroys the child's re-
gard for accuracy and pains in an
swering questions, which is worse.
The practice in which some people in
dulge of bantering children, or BAN
tering in their presence, is likely to
undermine their appreciation OF sober
speech. Finally, the numberless
threats and promises that are never
fulfilled constitute an education in IN
truthfulness.
