Good Resolutions
Each person is given a paper and pencil and requested to write at the top of the page the word “Resolved,” followed by expressions of amendment that he or she is conscious of needing. One such attempt at self examination resulted in the following resolves:
“I will be as honest as the times will permit.”
“I will be good to all.”
“I will tell no more lies.”
“My best self shall rule.”
“I will try to love everybody.”
These are read aloud and the authorship guessed. All the correct guesses at the authorship are counted, for the prize of a china mug with “For a Good Girl” or “For a Good Boy” in letters upon it.
