to the Mission Fund: II isn't bad
old world after all. A mighty fine
spirit is being shown these thousand
charges OF Ray Bird during this
holiday season. The fact that We
have TO fight with people IN order
to get permission TO use their names
shows that.
When YOU get a typewriter let
ter addressed IN a plain envelope
from somebody you don't know and
you find SO for the kids in il, YOU
get a real thrill. or course we're the
same way. We never mention little
Evelyn or our business manager in
the Tower-we'rc too modest.
Here is what we mean:
