A second writer goes into detail, and exposes some of the garbling arts which have been used against me; it is imputed to ill temper, and is insinuated to be from a spirit of personal revenge. How much less can I defend myself, and that, against untruthfulness, without incurring such imputation! My opponent speaks to a public who will not read my replies.
She could not analyze the smile on his face, but in it she thought she detected something subtle untruthfulness perhaps. She glanced at the tarpaulin and from it to his eyes, holding her gaze steadily. "You are going to sleep in the open," she said. He caught the accusation in her eyes and his face reddened. "Well," he admitted, "I've done it before." "Perhaps," she said, a little doubtfully.
Can they carry into the world, whither we send them later, aught of coarseness, of untruthfulness, of slatternliness, of vulgarity, if their home has been orderly, if their parents have been refined, their servants well mannered, their friends and playmates kindly and carefully trained as themselves?
A domino on the outer edge of the group came forward with a roll of foolscap, tied with a black cord. The cord impressively untied, amid dead silence, and the paper unrolled, the reading of Marjorie's crimes was begun. "Prisoner, you are accused of untruthfulness, treachery and malicious interference in the affairs of others. It is not our purpose to detail to you the occasion of these crimes.
"Wretched," said Miss Gething. "Ugh!" "I don't mind it much myself," said the skipper. "You must be very wet," said Miss Gething. "You are going to see mother, I suppose?" "I did think of doing so," said the skipper with joyous untruthfulness. "I'm going to do a little shopping," said she. "Good-bye."
As in other problems connected with the bringing up of children, the first and the last aim should be to understand the child, the individual, particular child. Will your child become a habitual liar, or will he simply "outgrow" the tendency toward untruthfulness, as he will leave other childish things behind him?
It is extraordinary that such a revolting habit is practised in a race the ethics of which otherwise might serve as a model for many so-called civilised communities, these natives being free to an unusual degree from the fault of appropriating what belongs to others and from untruthfulness.
First he will find that untruthfulness causes astonishment, and a repetition of it, scorn and lack of confidence. But these methods should not be applied to untruthfulness caused by distress or by richness of imagination; or to such cases as originate from the obscure mental ideas noted above, ideas whose connection with one another the child cannot make clear to himself.
"I detest untruthfulness," said the aunt severely, "in all its forms. Will you kindly take that little boy away? I am quite satisfied about Mabel." "Well," said Gerald, "you are an aunt and no mistake! But what will Mabel's father and mother say?" "Mabel's father and mother are dead," said the aunt calmly, and a little sob sounded close to Gerald's ear. "All right," he said, "we'll be off.
It was a question which of them would dare to venture in and be so bold as to ask Mrs. Holman with many "dear, kind, goods" if she would allow Silla to go over to her for a little while this evening always untruthfulness and disorder! There was another sledge party with fine hats and glowing cigars standing laughing just outside. Barbara stopped her knitting-pins to listen.
