fact that tho gatno was tobe playedonoregon tcrrltory and that our team avcreagod twenty pounds lighter than oregons and you will sc why our spirits were low big express package arrived before ono of our practice session it was addressed to the team so we all tore into tho wrappings inside tho package waif nothing but broken drum on one rdo wait sera tc lied why does una remind you of the webfeot ilobert carter ran ids lingers through his curly black hair and looked ques tionally at edwards who had come to watch tho practice ids arm in sling now what can that mean demanded ilobert they wouldnt

proverb above tho drum roberts stern face relaxed into bmlle not bad idea whenever we start to get nuul thinking about that drum they sent us we can remember tho proverb and work little harder at

consid er all the points you find there on their merits find out in advance exactly what tilings will best serve your needs and why after all thats the only way to get your moneys worth every time the
