1 HER 7 HER ONE A. A Ji sl vl L J M LL Can the girl who has made one mistake come back Of course she can if she will and if we will help herShe her herShe She is like a child walking along the top of a narrow fence She knows that sooner or later she must fall on one side or the other but she has not decided which side to favor The girl has sinned She has made her mistake The world puts her on top of the narrow fence where it can watch her efforts to catch her balance toss a few kind words even hurl a jeer now and then She is a marked woman On one side is the forgetfulness she craves dance halls easy companions bright lights gay music and more and more sinOn sinOn sin On the other side is home prying eyes wagging tongues hurt feelings a bruised heart But it is home No more sin there She may live clean If she does the kindly sunshine of Time fades the scarlet of her sin with each passing day until after a while it is merely the shadow of a memory I want to ask every girl who has made her first mistake I to keep close to her home If she has no home will she get in touch with the friend or relative dearest to her By so doing she will not only insure her future happiness she she will beyond doubt save her own soul If you know a girl who has made a mistake help her t to live it down Give her a hand at wiping it out Be kind Be sympathetic Never cast a stone The stone you cast may be a boomerang The help you give is bread upon the waters
