they found they could not save
enough that way 50 they moved
into a rented room and found this
better for their needs in every
way Mary had less work TO do
and she was able 10 help John
with his studies. He still worked
/ part time jobs).
With their determination to sue
coed, John and Mary stretched
their small earnings TO include
their first born. Many sacrifices
were made this third year Of their
marriage, but they came out
ahead.
Three children and eight years
later, John opened his first little
office. He soon learned patients
liked to go to a doctor who looked
prosperous.
SO, they frightened their belts,
worked hard at being good friends
and good neighbors, and prayed
that patients would look inside"
Of their hearts, not at material
things.
Time went on and just as they
were beginning to feel they could
not go on much longer, patients
started to come in. They received
so much kindness, they were made
so welcome, they came back and
brought their friends and rela-
tives Before too long. business
was so good Mary and John were
able TO move out Of their tiny
fiat" they had rented and move
into a house.
Friends said they had sacrificed
the best years of their lives, but
did they?
Today, about twelve years after
graduation day, this young doctor
opened his own office building. He
and his wife have plans for n
lovely home, but they will not
hurry to build it, They win take
their time and pay for the office
building first.
He has so much business he has
to hire quite a staff to assist him.
Friends who hadn't found time
to seek his services before are dis
gruntled because he will not take
them as soon as they come into
the office. They have to wait their
turn the same as others. Friends
did not help him get his start, but
he makes them feel he is happy
to have them as patients and he is
but he won't let them run his Of
flee.
John says, May deserves credit
for any amount of success we
have Her kindness and gracious
ness toward all people has made
and won more patients for me
than my education ever could
have. She has made sacrifices all
of these years and am so humble
and grateful for having such
courageous wife. | will always re-
members it was her faith in me
that kept me going when would
have given up, taken any job just
so she could live and be happy.
Now, for the first time she can
stay at home and enjoy the free
time she so richly deserves"
John and Mary are just one Of
the many fine couples who want
to succeed but they are one of the
few young couples who are will
ing to sacrifice and stay together
when the going gets hard to bear.
They did not have time to wonder
what the Jones were doing, they
were too busy preparing for the
| future.
Congratulations 20 you, John
and Mary! Your future is assured.

and before you knew it, the front
end Of the car hit a tree.
Mr., Glover turned off the
switch and somehow he, Mrs.

crawl out of the windows that

could not free you.

walk in opposite directions look
