...Europe cannot continue to be a great consumer unless it be restored to health. If, however, we can help the nations abroad get on their feet, produce wealth, pay better wages and buy, we share in their prosperity. Just let me give you an instance.

Others give 15 to 20 ounces. The average output approximates 10 ounces a day. For this milk the nurse...

Said Mr. Vauclain: "In my business I make it a point never to inquire into the personal affairs of the men with whom I come in contact-the way they live is. their affair. My job is to look after myself so I can stick on the job and give them plenty of work to keep them busy." He keeps fit by keeping a physician hired permanently to guard his health. Although...
