hate the motorist/' A greate
truth has never been uttered. Tin
, "Have Nots" are always cursinj
the "Haves" and vice versa. Fron
the very beginning I was made t<
think that Dr. J. J. Starks was ;
"grand rascal" by those who op
posed him. On the other hand, lw
was praised as -a mint by others
Later in my life I had the chanci
to meet Dr. Starks and to knov
him personally, and I found tha
he was neither extreme, thougl
he came closer to the words o
praise given him by his friends.
Dr.'Starks had no easy time,a
we know that nJ person has ai
easy time when ht. chooses hi
life's career of helping others
The very persons that you see!
to-help most of the time are th
ones that will seek to destro;
you when they have been helper
Many times in Dr> Starks' life
time he was bitten by the one
whom he had sought to help. Bu
