Not long ago there was a girl named
Dorothy p. Cadums who ended her
life in New York and left a note PIN
ned to her night gown explaining why
she killed herself. She wrote: my
people are always picking at me, so
will give them chance to pick at
some one else"
Haven't YOU known people sometimes
to get started to picking on one girl in
community until they pick the very
life out of her soul and body? Perhaps
she is woman. A story about her, no
more than a snow fake, falls from the
lips Of someone, another picks it up a.,
adds to it till finally 1t gets as big as
big snow ball that children roll and roll
while at play in the winter. 1t freezes
the woman to death socially and friends
for a time shut their hearts and doors
in her face. But after all, when the
sun shines, no matter how great is the
snow ball it melts. The same is true
with Personal Picking, personal talk
that frequently starts about the domes-
tic or business affairs of men and wom'
en-.
Is there Dorothy in your town? In
your home or your neighborhood whom
people pick on through Jealousy or
merely through misunderstanding?
Look for the sunshine for her instead
Of a snowflake.
