oy halVes, and If any evidence of this
fact were needed it would be forthcoming

The beauty of the thing Is that tha
sale of badges appeals to all classes of
citizens, and the humblest toiler in tha
city vies with the millionaire in his
eagerness to contribute his mite towards
bringing home the gallant boys of the

when 1t is considered that the badges
have only been on sale for the short pc
