and he was locked inside the
doghouse. It . was she who set
off the general alarm through
out the house. Richard jumped
from his bed, ran down, the
stairs (without even his shoes
or robe) and out to open the
door of the doghouse and pull
the unconscious dog from the
smouldering fire which by this
time was bursting into flames.
There, on the cold ground, lay
the black and white dog, spe
cial pet of the family for six
years. He was completely over
come from the smoke fumes
and, for a minute, it looked as
if the rescue were too late. But
Richard stood over the dog and
slowly, methodically, just as he
had been taught in Scouting to
do, he administered artificial
respiration. For perhaps five
minutes there seemed no hope
as family and neighbors stood
around, helpless. But the boy
kept working: push, release,
push, release, trying to force air
into the lungs. With every
push there came a puff of
smoke from the dog's nostrils.
And then the dog's tail began
to wag, just a little at first, and
then more strongly as he began
to try to tell his master that,
cial respiration. Maybe it was
"just a dog" but a dog is a
boy's best friend ! And al
though there is still some dan
ger of pneumonia setting in, if
"tender, loving care" will save
the dog,f he will soon be well
again.

Note Of Importance
Some of those users of gasoline and oils
for agriculture are still in arrears in their
accounts for the past farming season, and
while we certainly have no desire to incon
venience any customer, we do however,
have to make collections in order that we
can continue service for 1960.
We must ask that these accounts be
paid or properly arranged for at a very
early date as it is fast nearing the time
to begin the new farming season.
We do greatly appreciate the cooperation
of those who have (been so helpful in
these matters and assure you that it is a
pleasure to serve you in any way possible.
Thanks to you all for your patronage
and cooperation.

"CORVAIR HANDLES BETTER. STEERS MORE EASILY, RESPONDS
MUCH MORE QUICKLY AND HOLDS THE ROAD MORE SECURELY
THAN ANY STOCK FOUR-DOOR SEDAN EVER MADE IN THE U.S."
ym U liiiilr, Cur Life
If you think we're enthusiastic about Corvair, leaf through the leading automotive, spoils and science
magazines and see what the experts are saying. Then, by all means, drive one yourself.
"Corvair's steering is so light that at
parking speeds it feels power assisted; it
is so precise as to he absolutely without
play,' and it is fait enough to allow
complete control over every situation."
, . Karl Ludvigsen,
Sports Cars Illustrated
"Steers like a feather and is extremely
quick. . . . This is a beautifully designed
automobile, engineered by real pros, ..."
' 'Tom McCahill, Meclumix Illustrated
"Most surprising thing to me outside of
' the excellent handling characteristics was
the feeling of roominess inside. . . . I
didn't have the sensation of driving a
small car and (he headroom was greater
in the Corvair than in some standard
size cars. . . ."
L. II. Houck, Automotive Reus
"So far as shopping goes, the Corvair is
a housewife's dream. It's small and easily
maneuvered without any power steering,
and so easily parked . . . it' a lot easier
to unload a cart full of groceries into a 1
front trunk at the supermarket than it
is into a rear one." , ; '
Rosemary Francis, Popular Science
"I want to state as firmly as I can that
the Corvair handles as beautifully and is
as safe as if not safer than any family
car on the road today."
Jim Whipple, Car Life
"There is none of the typical whine
normally associated with rear-engmed
vehicles. Inside the car, the ellect is ijuite
unlike anything wc have ever experienced.
It almost seems that there is no engine,
and the general ellect is so quiet as to be
almost uncanny."
John R. Bond, Road & Track
"No written word can sulhce for the
genuine pleasure that you will receive
' Behind the wheel of America's newest
and most advanced contribution to trans
portation. . . . It is a great car."
Don Stavart, Motor Life
