Hart about cheating? Is it true that boys think they may honorably lie to a teacher? M. Mi 5 MUNICIPAL LAW. else than at school, makes no scruple to deceive a teacher. Cheating at school blunts the moral sense ; it impairs the sense of personal honor ; it breaks down the outworks of integrity ; it leads by direct and easy steps to that grosser cheating, which ends in the penitentiary. " Not only is this dishonesty seen in the recitation-room, but it pervades all the actions and all the associat...ions of school life. In some schools it is understoood to be a point of honor to lie, to conceal thefts, frauds, trespasses, and personal injuries ; and so strong is this immoral idea of honor, that public senti- ment will control and compel the pupils, on pain of insult and abuse, to violate their consciences, the law of the school, and sometimes the law of the state. Anecdote. Thirty young men, ranging from seventeen to twenty-five years of age, were assembled to recite in col- lege, and while the professor was arranging his desk^ they amused themselves by tossing an old wig, which one of their number had stolen, as a joke, from the room of its owner, backward and forward across the room.
