ein casting stones at his fellow
e~ man who has sinned. And that
-epretty well covers the subject,
Z for there is no one, who at
some time or another, has not
ala.ssinned against God, the laws OF
see his country and his treatment to
,Asshis neighbor And that is as ap-
plicable today as it was the day
5a.s when Jesus spoke those words.
'es~ What good does it ever do to
.5sass Judge another's misdeeds? How
.vp does any one person know that, ur-
.s.. der the same conditions, he might
erhave done differently? The only
s. thing that helps at all is encour-
IS. agement. friendship and helping
hand at the time when it is most
needed.
-, do not mean that every indi~
.-..vidual should go through the world
seeking out derelicts. take hands
- with him and tell sad tales, but l
do believe that every day, each OF
us comes In contact, without going
out of our way to find that contact,
H. with someone to help little with
3.e word, a friendly glance, a smile.
-. And that isn't being idealistic,
5s@ either.
~ And I cannot feel that there is

rs. I have a letter today from a
- Young man who has made bitter
,s mistakes in his life, and who is be-
v ing refused help at the time in his
.@s life when he most needs it.

X ing you ever do that does not at
some time, affect your future life.
f-There is nothing that does not re-
fleet it's foolishness, it's wrong
,~doing upon the life Of another. This
girl is very young and she has not,
i.eperhapS had enough sorrow in her
life to make her forgiving. 1t must
have been pretty heartbreaklng Tor
~her to hear that the man she loved
and had planned to trust her entire
life to- was an eX-convlct.
You should have told her both of
these things before anyone else had
an opportunity to. 1t would have
been so much easier to explain that
way. Ask her to see you, in the
~presence of her family, and explain
before them all the circumstances
surrounding -our wrongdoing. IL
she still cannot forgive you, that is
about all you can do. But let 1t be
"a lesson to you to follow within the
bounds of the law.
t@ A Constant Reader of The Times:
THE only way I can see for you to
solve your problem is to work IN the
daytime and attend night school,
aeither at private commercial col
s1ege or public school.
fm You might obtain employment DO
ing domestic work in the daytime
with the privilege of having the eve
@nings off. That work will pay best
land give you the most leisure Tor
study.
