FORGET DATE HAS CHANGED
That So Many Forgot to Write 1917"
Proves That Man Is Creature
of Habit.

s'That man Is "a creature of habit"
remarked the secretary Of a large busi-
ness firm, is amply demonstrated by
the letters we receive. This letter
which / hold in my hand contains an
error generally made at this time of
the year, not because the writer's are
careless but because they have culti-
vated the habit of writing a certain
thing mechanically.
During the life Of the year now ex-
pired the writer's had grown aceus-
toned to putting down the numerals
1916. Doubtless at first 1t required eff
fort on their part to bear in mind that
the last figure Of the set was 6 and not
rs, but after a time the writing of 6
became a mechanical act rather than
a mental act 1t became second ma
ture for them to write the date cor
rectly.
with the birth of Ia new year, how
ever, the mechanical writer's must ex-
ert mental effort. When they don't
they err. Take this case, for instance.
You see the writer has turned out
what he consi ders a perfect letter. He
probably reread it and sealed it satis-
fed that 1t was correct. But he never
thought to look at the date, at least
the year part Of 1t. The result is that
instead Of dating 1t January, 1917, he
has dated it January, 1916. just a
mechanical error, that's all.
"A peculiar phase of the matter is
that the error Is usually made by per-
sons who write their own correspond
ence, especially in long hand. Stenog-I
raphers who are paid to write the corr
respondence Of others on typewriters
have developed the habit of being ac-i
eurate.'
