suits here at home, and If you VIII get tnat

Cousins. what do you think of it, Don you
hard enough: Let's hear from some one.
think we would all feel repaid for little blt
of Sef-denial if we only thought that we would
have lightdned some soldier boys suffering or
saved life. guess the majority of the
cousins have some one in the army. so let's all
do our very best 10 boost Aunt Julia's Relief
club. 1t seems to me that if the soldiers can
