MISTAKE TO TELL LIES
 TO CHILDREN, SAYS PASTOR

tBy International News Service.l
 Columbus. Ohio, April 6.--'1t is a mistake to tell lies to children. Even the Santa Claus myth can be told in such way as not to be untruthful." !" declares Rev Irving Maurer. pastor of the First Congregational Church. here, discussing the subject Telling the Truth"
 Children lie either because their parents have been found out or be- cause their parents are unskillful in questioning them" Rev. pr. Maurer continued.
 Sex truths early should be told children, for child will learn these facts in a distorted. impure, untruth- ful aspect if you lie to him about them.
 ~So, too, children should learn the facts about the Bible. about religion, about science. in order not to be com pelled in adolescence to find them selves deceived"
