S. government will be nearly $400.00 better off. And that would help like the prayer-card. Earnest daily prayer would be ar more effective. The postal card variety makes threats and promises about which the writer knows nothing. "Unsigned. "Oh. Lord be merciful unto all nation and unto us." This prayer must go around the world and if you fail to send it misfortune will create in your home.
