My mother through her fine example instilled (慢慢灌输) within me the desire to help others. She taught me to notice those whom others ignore.

The railroad tracks (轨道) were within a mile of our house. Beggars frequently would knock at the doors in our neighbourhood in summer asking for food. They were often turned away. Others simply ignored the knocks.

She would bring a red and white tablecloth and set the table as carefully as she did for any company. She would pour their coffee and pile their plates with food and dessert. Usually she sent a packed lunch with them when they were ready to go, too. Sometimes she would take the newspapers to those who asked about work.

Some thought she should not extend this courtesy (礼貌). She would say, "In the depression (萧条时期) when my father was searching around for any work to feed us, thoughtful people fed him. I am just repaying their kindness. I cannot offer them money, but I can see they do not leave hungry and discouraged." My mum was quite a lady.
