signed these centres were we'll taken

Real Sugar for Coffee
"Your coffee is sweetened with loaf

the German people know what the word
privation means.
People Well Clothed
You see the streets filled with we'll

furs, men wearing heavy, warm over

well clothed and happy, from street
urchins to little girls with furs about
