A MANS WORD.

Let it be known that your word can
/ be depended upon at all times. You
will find it very valuable in your bust
ness life. 1t is maxim that might well
be at the foundation of the instruction
of the young men and women who are
going out from our schools to make
4 their way in the world. Reliability in
.even such small matter as having
work done at the time promised is a
business asset whose importance is not
ssufficiently recognized.
@ A customer who has to make two or
three trips instead of one, or who fails
n to get something on which he was
VI #counting at a certain time, is a detri-
4 ment to any institution. He may like
Il the quality of the work done or the
goods sold, but the disappointment
over the failure to make good in point
! of time may overshadow everything
else and take away all his enthusiasm.
Very often inexperienced clerks are
at fault in such cases. The fact that
they never have learned the lesson of
complete reliability inflicts loss on the
institution with which they are con
nected.

CRIME AND THE HOME

The question of crime goes back to
the home. How shall homes be made
better. How shall a community best
perform the tasks in child training
which home should perform, but can
not under present conditions!
There is the problem. Toward its
solution many earnest men and women
are devoting their lives. 1t is an obi
CATION that none of US can rightly
shirk.
Between the type of home that can do
little toward bringing up its young to
be law-respecting men and women and
the type that is doing all it can toward
that desirable end there lies, un-
fortunately, third kind of home that
is doing little or nothing but might do
much. Homes cannot be classified
broadly as failures and successes; there
are half failures among them, made up
of parents capable but careless of their
responsibilities.
Certain it is that the father or mother
who does not know where his boy or
girl is evenings need not be surprised
( to learn some time that the boy or girl
has gone wrong. From street loafing
to burglary is but step, and quite
logical one. The corner idler~ is re-
ceiving the best training in the world
for petty thievery.
Fairgrounds, settlement houses, de-
tenton homes-they are all substitutes
for the real home, and in the long run,
pretty poor ones. Beyond the uncertain

tablshment of the real thing. In many
cases it is long look ahead, but the
vision is worth the strain.
