proper channels.

this line a friend Of mine, who has
been in charge Of the store, cut out
his delivery wagons, his telephones,

possibly be Topped off, and then cut
his prices. The housewife has to go
to the store herself and bring her
goods home in basket, but she pays
only II cents pound for porterhouse
