Jasper County Democrat, Volume 18, Number 94, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 23 February 1916 — Man. [ARTICLE]
Man.
As a general thing, taken by and large, men are honest—except with themselves. A man will cheat himself on his score at golf, when he knows that failing to set down the' full number of strokes does not make him a better golfer. If he is a fat man, and is dieting to reduce, he will shove the weight back a pound or two on the scale, when he knows in his heart he is heavier than that. Then he will tell his friends about •going around yesterday in 92,” and “taking off a pound and a half in three days” by his diet. With these two exceptions almost every man is honest. Therefore, all you need to do is to discount what he says about golf and reducing.— Judge.
