'This Is > quite a manufacturing
town. isn't it"
"Oh. yes; we're pretty busy" was
the proud reply.

"You did" agreed the proprietor,
dropping his voice, c~onfidentially, but
they are all at the -four mill. You see,

the factories we are going to have, and
put them In to make the town sound

 There is something not normal about it, but this matter wilt arrange itself" Fullest cooperation was promised in behalf of the internation- al Red Cross by the speaker who al- luded to the powerful resources at the disposal of the league and it's prac- tical program of work.
