And make sunshine where hut

Else hud filled the. day.

Over sea und land:

Of your helping hand.

Life seem Kood to live,
To our near and dear ones are
Priceless things to give.
Like the sunshine and the rain
They make fresh and sweet
Places barren, else, and rough
To their stumbling feet.

The general plan of attack of Tag

is to send 1 no agents through the city,
residence and business district alike,
and every man, woman, boy, girl or
child which any one of the agents
meet will be promptly accosted for
a donation. While the victim Is pro
