me feel ashamed; she actually did!"
We know just about what her grandma told her.
"In my day 'you would have dreaded shopping much
more. It was a reaLchore then. From place to place
you went, looking, looking, tasting this,, sniffing at :
that, buying on suspicion and not on faith. You didn't ;
know who made the things you bought; they didn't ;
have labels; most of them weren't in packages.
"Now you know by name most of the things you buy.
You buy a can of So-and-so's Beans today, and you

In Internationa! trade gold must
be shipped when the merchants ol
one country owe a large difference
to those of another country; thai

Instead of making actual ship

is expected to swing back again
before long, .gold is ear marked.
That means, although It Is not ac

vault -and marked as belonging to
certain owners abroad.
