A STRIKING COMPARISON

Money is such little thing to give
in comparison with life. Let us give
it freely, there is more in this big
land of ours to be gotten, and the
more we give, the more we will have.
1t is not the things we save that we
take with us in the next world, it's
the things we do, big unselfish things
for others.-Lucy Dare in Walker Pr
