The year is disputed. Some authorities say the, year 1472 ,others
1743. It was printed at Nurempurge. Other authorities claim

was published by William Bradford at Philadelphia in 1687.

effective many of the youth have

48 and over who are being trained
to become efficient men have no
_time to become delinquents.

the American flwg, the ship “Pacific Queen,’”’ now in Long Beach
harbor.

little people. She is remembered
by strangers for the knack in
making them feel welcome lo
