ONE SKILL VOICE
A sixteen-year-old Chicago girl recent
ly wrote a letter to a magazine publisher
pointing out in a friendly, constructive
manner the ham she felt the magazine was
doing, amoung young people particularly,
by its selection and presentation of sub
jects.
Not long afterward she received a reply
from the publisher expressing apprecia
tion for her thoughtful interest and her
sympathetic, positive approach. He sug
gested she go over the next issue, art
icle by article, adding a bried criticism
Of each.
The girl gladly complied. Soon a sec
ond letter reached her from the publisher
enclosing a check for $25 for "Her Service"
and with the much more rewarding news that
her observations had inspired several of
fice memoranda on editorial policy.
God blessed the little effort of that
sixteen-year-old girl in Chicago to "Reach
for the World." Because she took the time
and trouble to "Make Her Voice Heard"in an
effort to make things better, she succeed
ed in bringing about some improvement at
least in articles that are read by mill
ions.
