«of grit by walking the distance as
contentedly as larks. They have prov

let us improve our opportunities. If
it is too far to walk we might try
driving awhile. That would be a
small sacrifice

XincoLn program which was to have
been given by the fifth and sixth

pretty valentines were made by them
