Psychologists may differ among themselves as to the appropriateness of that termâ€"some use it sparinglyâ€"hut in any consideraâ€" tion of the psychology of gossip the inferiority complex seems to be adâ€" mitted by acclamation. Persons posâ€" sessing a good inferiority complex make the best gossipers. By spreadâ€" ing reports disparaging to others they somehow lessen the sense of their own inferiority. A A Case of "Projection." Dr. Goodwin B. Watson, an educaâ€" tional psychologist of Teachers Colâ€" lege, explains it as a case of "projecâ€" tion." Stomm:, Everybody, it would seem, enjoys gossip in varying degrees and strengths. When a practice is admitâ€" tedly so prevalent it may be regarded as doubtful wisdom to pass laws against it. This at least is the psychologist‘s view. As Dr. Bernard Glueck described the proposed Gerâ€" man law, it is ‘like shooting at a sparâ€" row with a cannon." Dr. Glueck, who is a psychiatrist, recently spent some time in Germany. He says he was unable to discover any signs of an epidemic of gossiping there. (one may assume) in which life.would be duller than it is were ii not for idle tattle. And though all gossip, so the psychologists hold, is necessarily harmful to some one, it does not folâ€" low that the harm done is serious or permanent or that the originator of a false rumor deserves to be treated as as enemy of society.

It might be remarked, too, that the middleâ€"ofâ€"theâ€"road politician kicks up a lot of dust. America, too, has her traffic probâ€" lems, and one of the soltitions adopted is "oneâ€"way streets," in which only traffic going in one direction is alâ€" lowed, In one town, the story goes, a policeman stopped a girl who was driving a car. "Madam," he said, "you are breaking the law. This is a oneâ€"way â€" street." The girl comâ€" menced to ¢ry.

After reading that all over what about the "listenersâ€"in" on the Party lines in Rural Ontario and the way they spread the scandal? â€" There is,/ by way ofâ€" parallel, the case of the tattleâ€"tale in school who is most often cured of his failing by being held in contempt by the rest of the classâ€"and the teacher, too. This method, crude as it may be, seems to bear, the stamp of the best psychologiâ€" cal approval. Gossiping and taleâ€"bearâ€" ing lose their zest when the bearer actually loses caste. Old New England tried the ducking chair and even the bridle, this last a sort of halter with an fron pin which pressed against the offender‘s tongue when he (or she) opened her mouth. But it did not stop gossiping. Probably if a vote were to be taken among the psychologists, the proâ€" posed law in Germany would lose by a large majority. . From their point of view gossiping is not a thing that can be stamped out by sending the offender to jail. The threat of a jail sentence or banishment might act as a deterrent, but to what extent reâ€" mains to be seen. Viewed as an exâ€" pression ~â€" of inferiority, _ gossiping seems likely to endure so long as we have a sense of inferiority o ra conâ€" dition exists in which numbersâ€"of peoâ€" ple feel themselves inferior to the group. As to whyâ€"as is commonly heldâ€" women are more prone to gossip than men, there may be more than one answer. But it is Professor Woodâ€" worth‘s observation that women more often than men do offend in this way. Practice Among Women. _ "It is probably because of their status," he said, ‘which is more apt to be decided for them than by them. Especially in small groups, such as the country town, or among the wives of army officers or college Faculties, you will find that the women are in clined to accept less willingly the rank or position in which they are placed than are their husbands. The husbands may get along well enough, but as often as not there is resentâ€" ment and dissatisfaction among the women. _ Gossip is one result. _ Of course, too, women have more time than men to gossip, as a rule." j ’ A good deal of gossip, the psycholâ€" ogists believe, thus evolves. Its origin is often doubtful. It is assumed that !a]l gossip is harmful; there seems to fbe no evidence that people induige in any other kind. But this oftentimes may be due to the natural human tenâ€" dency to make a good story better. Professor Robert 8. Woodworth, head o fthe department of psychology at Columbia â€" University, lays considerâ€" able emphasis on this point. He has observed a small town "dress up" a mere rumor until it began to be passâ€" ed along as an amazing fact. All of which comes under the heading of gossip, and often very harmful gossip, yet it cannot exactly be labeled a crime and laid at the door of a single individual. ‘"The same thing that accounts for the popularity of gossip may also exâ€" plain the popularity of the soâ€"called new biography, namely, the sense of enjoyment that comes to the inferior in tearing down and belittling the great one. I do not suggest that the modern biographer is insincere in his attempts to presert a true picture of his subject, but the many who read these new lives of groat men must find there the same sort of gratificaâ€" tion that comes to the gossip. . In ponderirg the frailties of the great they feel that their own status in the community is raised." How Gossip Evolves. Gossip, as the psychologists view it, is somewhat short of a simple matter for the law to handle. At Teachers College, for instance, in a favorite exâ€" periment tried on the children in a history class, the teacher will take one pupil aside and tel him a simple story of some historical import. The child will then be invited to tell the story to his nearest classmate, who in turn repeats it to his neighbor, The story thus goes the round of the class. Its resemblance to the original, of course ,is extremely remote. "That ‘No man is a hero to his valet‘ is very true, but little understood peychologically. It is not because the man is not a hero but because the valet is a valet. In other words, the valet projects his own failings into his master and thus persuades himâ€" self that he is as good a man as his master. "Of course, there are other gratiâ€" fications in gossip. Most of us like to be the first to tell z2 bit of news. The gossip enjoys that feeling. But more especially he enjoys the sense of tearing down some one else. If he can lower th standing of some one more important than himseif he thus tends to elevate his own relative imâ€" portance. Soâ€"andâ€"so is no better than he is. the same whether we hold a lyaching party or sit in at a ladies‘ sewing circle. In either case we are satisfyâ€" ing a desire to infllet suffering.

Then, at the stable door they take stand, one at each side of it, and hold their candles high while the little shepherdess drives th animals in. _ One by one, sheep, goats, and oxen, they pass beâ€" tween the flickering lights.
