! find many OF my friends in Louisville
enthusiastic over the good being accom-
plished by the Kings Daughters. The

"Silver Cross" is typical of their lives.

ness, performing deeds OF mercy, waiting,

blot mars her record.

your admitting that women do all the
gossiping and men only listen. If Ieven
