In this country the word 'sacrihce

said Or. Newton,
When asked to give his views TO
arouse interest In the coming fourth

something that will bring you good In

an Investment sacrifice. In England
you hear no word of complaint and
people are irving their all. Every
home is contributing something. The
English people are wearing old clothes.
