Resenting the Lie Direct.

“The statement that a man was a liar does not bear the weight it used l to do. There were times when, if one man called another a liar, that man was called to account for it—lt might even be'in a duel.” said Lord Justice. Vaughan Williams, speaking, at the Union Society of London with regard tp lies told at recent election* petitions. “I have come to the conclusion thap the world in general is coming to think that it does not matter very, much if one’s neighbor calls you a liar or not. You can smile, meet him in society, go out and play golf with him, and shake hands with him. I 1 wish people resented more this imputation of being liars.*
