George is also a revised and greatly

He is no cherub. perhaps. But he has
exhibited some fine traits Of charac

This is an instance; Mr. Gould had,
until recently, a president Of the wa

to make money for his employer-a
laudable ambition But in his desire
for profits he went too far and Mr.,
Gould asked for his resignation.
