Article and headline - "How to make your money grow. An open letter to the man or woman who wants an independent income." - - - don`t we all!!!!! Illustrated lecture, Nelson Hall, Allenby in Palestine and Lawrence in Arabia. Women`s coats: All with beaver collars - $4.50, $8.50 and $3.50. Baby chicks 100 for $20.00. Marion-Sheppard Fur CO.
