Our Children
Cheating.

A teacher asks what shall he done
about cheating. The whole class
seems to think it all right 10 copy les
sons and get good marks any way
possible.
] have found that 1t is best not to
say anything at All about such things
az cheating except to the individual
concerned. and then to do il privately.
II one makes public announcement
there is sure to he general col
la pse into the very pit one wished to
avoid. Suggestion is most powerful
stimulant to childhood. II should he

ton brings on trouble every time
Drop the notion that the children
are waiting and anxious TO cheat in
their. lessons. ! can assure You that
the great body of children are honest.
The dishonest child is the exception.
IL YOU think about it YOU see that it
must he so. We could not go on if it
We're not.
Then when cheating is general We
know that the trouble lies outside the
children and begin treating ourselves.
We remind ourselves that children are
very conscientious: that they want
to do what we want them to do. In
deed they are too submissive. often.
for their own EoO0. II they are. as
a group. doing wrong. they are not At
fault We are. Treat your mind
to a dose Of This truth until II ac-
accepts it: until you are positive that
the children do not want to cheat.
AS soon as you have convinced your
self that this is the case your spirit
will send out the message to the
children and their response will he

greeted the doctor and then whipped
the revolver from his pocket and
pulled the trigger. There was re-
port. and flash, but the revolver was
loaded with blank cartridges and no
injury was done.
The man was then brought out Of
the spell and questioned. DO you
realize that you might have killed the
doctor? This means that there is
murderous streak in your makeup"
No" answered the man. Some
how or other. had an idea that
heard the doctor who hypnotiZed me
tell the nurse who assisted him that
the revolver was loaded with 'blank

This is only one of the many proofs
of the fact that persons cannot he in
