But now the time has come 10 hand
lover a few stingels himself
In the old days one OF the most IN
Isistently solicitous regarding George
was his employer, President Frank }.

Mr.. Navin, In the early days in

work with all that"
So saying the big pitcher poked his
employer gravely or several telling
spots and shook his head.
The magnate grinned at the way

Used George he'd get busy right away
Some people seem 10 think that the

opinion that there Is nothing profess
