CARRIED HONESTY TOO FAR

every clerk concerned. but a new gem

their use In the original sense, how
ever. was demonstrated recently by
n employer grocer-who was
telling his story over the counter the
other evening to a belated customer.
Last Summer" the grocer said,
my family was living down at the
beach and / used to leave early in
order to get down there for a late
dinner. / had a clerk that l trusted
to lock up and put the money In the
safe. Naturally the cash register
would show in the morning what he
had rung up.
For a Few days l thought IL was
working fine. He was a good clerk
and I thought he was honest. Then
when I got to thinking about 1t / de-
cided he was too-honest. For ten
days that register and the cash agreed
to a penny. Now that's better than |
could make 1t do myself. 1t amt
natural.
Then I decided to try a little
scheme. Just before I left I rang up
$2.75 on the register and put moth
ing in the till. Next morning the
cash and the register agreed as usual.
That was enough for me. Any man
who is so honest he will make up
mistakes out of his pocket must have
plenty of money to do 1t with.

In one OF the current gobs of movie
slush, for buying which we enthusi-
a~stically kick ourselves at regular in
tervais, we recently dfgested The
Story of'My Life" by Clara KimbaIl
Young. To hear this pulchritudinous
damsel tell about 1t. her life has been
a siiken bed of American Beauty ros-
es garnered with sugar coated morsels
OF brilliant achievement and rapid
advancement over the road to foot
light fame. 1t Is n Of those lines OF
gush and bunk that lead susceptible
female sixteens to abandon a warm
fire and an extra pair Of sox, or silk
hose rs they are now dubbed, to seek
fame. fortune and izzle "in the NOV
les"
The sweet Clara would insist to
the world that her mother and father
were always capable and well known
stage folks, always endowed with
plenty Of the long green and that she
was consequently the recipient of all
the trimmings that go with Summers
spent at the beaches and the culture
that comes from vassar. Lest there
be a few squashy young females here
abouts who would follow off the siren
song of the claptrap Clara we beg to
elucidate a few facts from our own
recollection.
After the bottom fell out of the
stock market in Goldfeld. where
Clara and her "well-to-do pa and ma
were transforming in a forty cent
stock company" for a period of six
months, the crowd moved to Reno.

good looks of their daughter and

began Withholding their shekels from
the Kimball family pot. Later on
they branched out and took up their
quarters in the wheelmen theatre, a
playhouse constructed out Of the old
wheelmen Athletic Club In the west
ern part of Reno. Here Clara sobbed
and sweated matinee and night for
ham and eggs for pa, ma, and me-"
until the tears began grinding the
rouge into her velvety cheeks. Father
and Mother Kimball continued to
wax sleek and greasy upon the divi-
sion Of the spoils, but Clara looked
gaunt and doubtful about the out

who then engaged somewhat perfume

theatricals. professional and other
wise, entered upon the scene. We
were offered, and enthusiastically &C

Clara was holding forth, and our sal

high school. We pulled the old horses
