Under the Ieadership of an intelligent leader the immagiuGry sense of impropriety has entirely disappeared.
 The cans when brought into Ghe wharehouse are clean and by Gh0 young women are neatly wrapped in tissue paper and labeled. BsSadas the earning of little pin moReg. the recreation derived is very much enjoyed. -.-
 The work is not by the daYs but by the job. They may work all day or they may quit at their 9lsas- sure. This arrangement makea 1t easy for anybody to try his hand at the misunderstanding Prosres- siye. al
