Don’t Be Afraid of Influenza By the Rev. Thomas B. Gregory Copyright, 1918, by The Ines Publishing Co, (The New York Evening World) early everybody is mortally afraid of it.

My friends say that I am nat bad looking, and I always got good mark fm school, I am an only child, with & comfortable homo and parents, But i am so shy that my Ute is wretched. At any social gathering I never know what to say, and I feel that if I move I shall knock things down or get in the way of @ther people. I long to laugh and @mjoy myself like other girls, but womething makes me sit stiffly in fhe corner and act like a stick. Everybody believes I am cold and in- @fferent and proud, and yet all the fime I am unhappy and feel myself social failure, What shall I do?"
