Honesty Is Intelligence

There isA Saying That rs tax

But it takes a smarter man to
be honest, for honesty in its last
analysis is nothing but intel.
ligence. The man who has brains
sufficient to realize that honesty
at all timesis the best policy is
the man who is the most intel.
ligent.
To be fair with yourself, is 70
be honest with yourself, and to
be honest with yourselfis is to show
to the world that you are very
intelligent.
Dishonesty always robs a man
Of his honor. always kills the
natural workings of his brain and
blasts at the vitals of his heart
feeling. So that dishonesty of
whatever nature is always ignor-
ance.
Brains used for dishonest Dur.
poses require just as much time
and effort as though directed
along high and noble channels.
and yet the returns are always
lower for the man who is forced
to despise himself and 20 turn r.
aitor to the best feelings and sen
that he has, ct the same
time, making himself an outlaw
before all the world.
Honesty IS always intelligence.

The fatal visitation came upon

home near Edgard, Surrounded
by his relatives, and close friends,
and after receiving the final
consolation of the Catholic
Church, Of which religion he was
a lifelong, and ardent adherent.
Mr.. Dumez was born in this pa

st. Stanislaus College. in Bay st.

disposition, but made many
friends. and the high esteem in
which he was held in this parish

the duties of his home, and his

heart upon which were enshrined
the members Of his family, and

his demise is indeed an irrepar.

forever in the hearts of their low

no thought Of reprisals. adding that
there must be no policy of an eye for
an eye and tooth for tooth.

only neutral great power except Italy

earnestly hope that Mr. Wilson. find
