borhood the people who, from the pc
ginning of the war, have been 1ull OF
doubts and questions and false
alarms, you will find that they are
few in number ana Of precious little
Importance, except as atmospheric
disturbances.
Also, did it ever occur to you:
That the man who had bought most
literally of government bonds never
questioned the safety Of his security /.
That the woman who was knitting
The most socks and sweaters never
believed the silly stories about the
Red Cross being a crooked institu-
That the soldier boy about to
board a transport and join his com
rades Of France and Great Britain
never was known to doubt the sin
