He was mild and dOCile in manner,

Much OF this joking, on the other hand, is inno-
cent The jokers are themselves surprised that
it should be taken seriously. Much of it, too, does
no harm whatever But cultivating the habit is
bound to lead to harm, any habit is that creates
in others self-consciousness and uneasincss. Be-
sides, of all joking, personal joking is the least
humorous and the least interesting. Its being cu-
tivated so extensively in this country is in itself
arraignment OF the American sense of humor. Our
pride in humor leads into many excesses,
including violations OF kindness, which is much
more important than humor, we'll into abuses
of taste

That old lady might have gone and par
ticuIarizcd some OF the consequences associated
with this kind OF joking. They can be very seri-
Gus. By it social groups are thrown into sudden
turmoil and family life is violently disturbed.
There arc men who think it is great joke to twt
others with remarks that create selfconsciousness
and nervous apprehension and anger and pain,
that will even, when their victims are women,
draw tears. They think they justify themselves
by saying, "Oh didn't mean anything" or 81
was only fooling' l have known jokers of this
kind to invent distressing falsehoodS for the sake
of being as they let themselves believe amusing.
If they do not amuse others, they amuse them
selves. We have all been involved in situations
created by them, sometimes as victims, sometimes
as uncomfortable witnesses. Occasionally, by
the starting OF reprisals, are obliged to take
part. Such moments among the most disa-
greeablc known to social life. They put great
strain on self-control and tact.

What is most offensive about this habit is that
/: may often hide malice. By the malicious peopla
it is greatly esteemed. They act if they
thought they could get away with it without de-
lection. But invariably it berays itself, malice
is bound to do, however clevcrly it may to itself,
seem to work. Those who love to pass out "home
truths" in the guse of humor merely make their
most salient quality conspicuous. If they are not
exposed by their methods, they are likely to be
exposed by their looks, by the curious CLINT OF the
eye that is the physical sign Of malice, or by the
guarded tone OF voice. Indeed, of all qualities,
malice cunning it is is one OF the most difficult
to hide. Though it may seem to operate from a
thousand miles away its effects sensational.
Every time malicious thought or feeling is ex-
pressed il is as if it were hcraldcd by alarm
of bells And, with repeated indulgence, the ma
licious people develop in their faces and in their
voices definite marks by which they may be recog-
nzed
The Washington herald., 1915-01-14

Situations begun in this way may take quick
and serious turn, particularly where the first re-
marks touch sore spot, as they often do, and
strike out flash of anger. Only the other day
witnessed the work OF this kind of performer.
He made the mistake of trying his skill on a
mind much keener and much more alert than his
own. He started series of writings that, long
before they ended, left him badly damaged, re-
mnding him of qualities in himself only too evil
dent and by no means pleasant to think Of. And
like all personal jokcrs, worsted at their own
game he felt hurt. The contest ended in sur
face fricndliness that only partly concealed the
bitterness beneath, bitterness likely to endure
for some time to come.
