Letters To Mimi From Her D?d Dear Ml in I Possibly I ho most unpleasant and unpardonable human trallH are thosa of Jtmlously and envy. All of us have soma inclination In this d tree Don but, usually. a well balanced pariton shows little outward tendencies towards i he,so einotlonH. When yon see a person who has an e.\tr? me and marked trait ot either Jealoualy or envy or both, you can put It down in your Utile book that this person Is seriously lacking In something. The behavior pattern that has been established causing these peculiar (although common) reactions Is Hlmply a defense mechanism or protective harrier It comos Into play when the stimulus of the thing the envy or have Jeaolnsly towards pres. ents Itself Then. through this Inferior reaction, they subconsciously attempt to cover up or hide In their eelf-imposed shell of mental torture. If you envy someone for what he has or what ho can do it Is a perfectly normal reaction for you to try to acccumulate more or do your Job better to put yourself on a equal plane with him or on a higher one. This Is tho kind of thing that makes all of us strive harder. Hut to sit down nnd Assume a "saur grauea" attitude you are admittedly an Inferior per. son. Now, If you are Jealous of someone you are unquestionably Inferior tc that person. The person of whom'you are Jealous Is either smarter, bettei looking, more successful or capable ol making more friends than you are Now. after all. Isn't this type of re action silly? Wo can all Improve oui looks to some extent, It Is certalr that we can greatly Improve oui minds and we can all, by paying mort attention to It. develop a more at tractive personality. 'Hhese things combined cannot help but make us ultimately more successful. Don't you think It would be a bet ter Idea to strive to accomplish thest Improvements and readjust ourselves than to take It lying down and Jusl bo Inferior people? A gradual prpcese of re-education will always do the t rick. People who are jealous or envious are always miserable and they make wrecks of those around them. If they were big enough they wouldn t be that way. Ix>ve, Your Dad. p. S .? You can do anything you rnakb up your mind to do anything you're big enough to do. POLITE AT LEAST The story is told of an Ohio State I'nlvorsity professor, famous for his absentiniudedness. About two o clock of a roe.mi morning lie- telephone rang. Climbing out of bed he made bis way to his dfk in the library and lifted the receiver ' Hello.'' came the voire "Is this one, one. one. one?" "No," answered the professor "It is eleven, eleven."
