They straggle along over the hills,
crossing farms, making short cuts
from loop to loop of the winding Car

The wagons that we pass by thou-

Our automobile journey through the

a pageant Of life at fits oldest A
wounded soldier knelt on the steps Of
a wayside shrine, on hili top. A
horse, tired to death, fell on its side
and died while trying to get up. A
man was painting blue cross on the

show the Austrians that he was a
Roman and not Russian Catholic.
A Hungarian soldier stepped up to

Ford factory at Detroit and ran an
automobile clear across the continent

got some relative In the United States
and I'll bet you every Jewish family
here gets money from somebody in
the United States, regularly.
