Put The Homeless To Work
Number of words: 1216 - Number of pages: 5.... get anybody's attention so that they could get some
change or even some left over food. Others hang around 7-11 stores or any
grocery stores and supermarkets. Some are out there to clean your car or

Smokers: The Right To Pursuit Of Happiness
