SEARCHING FOR THE GOOD
There is 0. little good in the worst
of us and a little evil in.the best of
as. It doesn’t take any of us. long to
find that true of ourselves and an
honest consideration of the other fel
low will point out the same fact, I
remember once hearing of a teacher who
:iad a particular difficult situation
rith a youngster concerning theft. She
;new the many instances of things
■dssing and also had the evidence of
-act for placing the proper blame,
lowever she decided to work it differ
ent rather than scold, punish or even
expel the child from school. Finding
~ut that the youngster was good in
athmatics she set up situations
hereby the child had to purchase
kings for herself and the class and
"ach time she commented on the*fact
ehat the boy would never have made a
-istake in the change so she wouldn’t
^ount it. The youngsters pride was on
rhe spot and he cane through every
ame and the petty pilfering also
ceased, .
We are all capable of finding the
daults in each otheys make up but do we
Continued next Column
'ever search for the good. From one
point of commendation or one pleasing
characteristic we can work toward a
very fine appreciation of another per
sons life. To break down is easy, to
| build up is a bit more difficult. Were
! we to examine our own relations with
j the next fellow even as unfriendly as
they might be now, there is no doubt
that we could find some good points.
! Stressing there in our relations with
j that fellow would be bound to result
in a more charitable association.
"Maybe he isn’t as bad as I thought"
is generally the result and from such
a foundation a real friendship can
develop. The other way out may seem
the easier but it results in the bit
terest of feelings making life miser
able. Yes there is a bit of good in
the worst of us, and a bit of evil in
the best of us. How about giving more
time in the first fact, most of us
have spent enough time searching out
the other. • .*
