Perseverance Does It.

“It’s the allies’ perseverance that won this war,” said Senator Lewis. “The allies suffered defeat after defeat. but from each defeat they learned something. “It’s like the advict? which the editor of the Cinnaminson Scimitar gave to an unlucky wooer who had been rejected by seven girls in turn. The editor wrote: “ ‘Unlucky Wooer. —Go ahead. Don’t be discouraged. Never say die. You must have learnt a lot by what you have gone through. Strikes us you must hold something like a record. Well, stick all your experience together and make love to the next girl who comes round and takes your fancy. If she don’t reciprocate, try another. Remember you only want one girl to say yes.’ ’’ ,
