For instance, she will listen to vour assertions and suggestions and arguments, letting you gather that her alienee means that she co incides and assents. Then when you act on what she has allowed you to think she meant she will likely declare indignantly that sbe hasn't intended any aucb thing. To ail in tents she had sgrerd, but If things don’t turn out to suit her she can prove her alibi which she eatab lished by previously not committing herself. She works In a shop. Like all humans she Is llshle to mistakes But when fared with them she ad vancea reaeons. arguments, and ex cuses galore. She doesn’t intend to deceive, but she puts personal van Ity ahead of business integrity. Con sequentljr she Is an obstruction to business. When customers ask Questioni- Rhr seems afraid to commit herself lest she get Into trouble. She al ways leaves loopholes of escape. She can always prove her alibi. The other day she quarreled with her fiance. He told her bluntly that he had always had to pin her down and cross-question her when he asked her anything he ha/1 a right to know He told her she had proven herself constantly evasive and therefore he had decided she must he dishonest. So he left her. Why do such people—you meet them dally—try always to prove an alibi, to evade, to sidestep, to leave loopholes to wriggle thru? Why can’t they make the honest confes sion that is good for the soul and have an end of It? Perhaps the reason Is Inherent dishonesty.' perhaps t* is vanity •hat seeks to put the best foot for ward. Sometimes It Is merely sheer stupidity and lack of resourceful ness. Most likely of all It.is fear, that ogre whieh 1s responsible for more woe thsn we realize —fear of crit icism. fear of rebuke, fear of boint* found out, fear of losing a position, fear of seeming ignorant or stupid, fear of a thousand other things. At any rate, the alibi habit is a bad thing. It kills confidence. It prevents the course of true love or any other love from running as It should, and It impedes the wheels of business If the alibi proven* could only see 177- 179 -181 WOODWARD Av£ DETROIT TIMES DROP THE ALIBI HABIT had three.
