Says . . . I' /h
Hello, Folks! I went to bed last
night wondering what on earth I
should write about for this week,
with not an idea in my head.
This morning my one important
thought is to tell you all not to be
careless about the use of old
worn out electric commodities! !
I had an old electric pad that I
had been using for at least 25
years, but it had been doing pret
ty well. As it was a cold night, I
put it in the bed and connected
it, but it did not heat up. Now I
ought to have had sense enough
to disconnect it, but I carelessly
told myself that I guessed it had
served its day and I’d have to get
a new one, and I went to sleep.
My father used to say the
Lord takes care of children and
fools, and that I had always be
longed to one class or the other.
Maybe that is true, for He cer

the night a broken wire must have
caused a short circuit, for about
3 a. m. I awoke, probably from
smelling smoke, and found the
bed too hot. I threw back the co

ed up, ran to the bathroom for a
pitcher of water and doused the
flame. Being an inner spring mat-

side by the fire and soon broke out
in another flame! Finally. I suc
ceeded in extinguishing the fire,
opened the windows and doors to
fan out the smoke, so it would
not penetrate the house and awak

At 7:30 I called my landlord and
his wife. Mr. and Mrs. Haywood
Elliott, to come and see the
damage, and I got a good scolding
for not waking the household at
the time! Well! If I had let the
fire blaze while I called and had
waited for help, the whole bed,
and perhaps the house, would have
gone up in flames! As it was, the
flames went out, and by 10 o’clock

verified the damage and assured
me that it will taken care of!
So all the excitement is over, the

to sleep in tonight, minus the old

So much for me. But take my
advice and don’t run risks with

as smoking in bed, which no one
but a fool will do.

Sounds unbelievable for a Chrysler. But it's true.
And we’re ready to prove it to you. 4
Considering the full-size value you get in a Newport
4-door sedan, we can appreciate why so many ask us to
prove that a Chrysler can be priced so low.
We’re always happy to.
Because we can talk about full-size comfort; big, boom
