Slackerism During the
War Became Odious

especially in America. Any
sort of inefficiency is a
form of slackerism. A
schoolboy and a college
mate should remember
this. His teacher will not
like to use the word odious,
but she writes it down
somewhere that so and so
is a Stacker.
To "loaf" on any job or
avoid any plain duty is
slackerism. A father or
mother too busy to train a
son or daughter in honor,
honesty and straightfor-
wardness is likely to re-
gret it as a serious mistake.
