ABOUT A POOR MAN

Forget Andy Carnegie and his
millions for peace. while We tell you
about a man who is bigger han Car
negie and who has won one of the
great victories of peace. Forget every
thing that is wrong. or gloomy. or in
any way distressing and listen to
story about Pat Chambers.
Pat lives down under the hiI," at
Cleveland, Ohio, where folks get all
the heat when it's hot, all the frost
when it's cold all the dirt when it's
windy, and all the mud when it's
rainy, It's a little house of four rooms
but it shelters Pat wife Bridget and

Pat gets $175 day as laborer.
Just cut that $l75 up into rent
