the statement cannot be further explained and is merely rote memory of the passage in the 13th chapter of 1st Corinthians. Simply "To help" or "To give" is unsatisfactory. Half of the failures are due to inability to reply. (d) _Envy_ _Satisfactory._ "You envy some one who has something you want." "It's the way you feel when you see some one with something nicer than you have." "It's when a poor girl sees a rich girl with nice dresses and things." "You hate some one because they've got something you want." "Jealousy" (satisfactory if subject can explain what _jealousy_ means; otherwise it is _minus_). "It's when you see a person better off than you are." Nearly three fourths of the correct responses say in substance, "You envy a person who has something you want." Most of the others are concrete illustrations. _Unsatisfactory._ "To hate some one," or simply "To hate." "You don't like 'em." "Bad feeling toward any one." "To be a great man or woman." "Not to be nice to people." "What we do to our enemies." Inability to respond accounts for 55 per cent of the failures. (e) _Justice_ _Satisfactory._ "To give people what they deserve." "It means that everybody is treated the same way, whether he is rich or poor." "It's what you get when you go to court." "If one does something and gets punished, that's justice." "To do the square thing." "To give everybody his dues." "Let every one have what's coming to him." "To do the right thing by any one." "If two people do the same thing and they let one go without punishing, that is not justice." Approximately 38 per cent of 102 correct responses referred to treating everybody the same way; 25 per cent to "doing the square thing", 12 per cent were concrete illustrations; and 4 per cent were definitions of what justice is not. _Unsatisfactory._ "It means to have peace." "It is where they have court." "It's the Courthouse." "To be honest." "Where one is just" (_minus_, unless further explained). "To do right" (_minus_, unless in explaining _right_ the subject gives a definition of _justice_). It is very necessary, in case of such answers as "Justice is to do right," "To be just," etc., that the subject be urged to explain further what he means. "To do right" includes nearly 12 per cent of all answers, an
