SLEEPING BEAUTY NOW
RETURNING TO LIFE
CHICAGO. Dec. 5— The unbroken
slumber which for 33 months has en
folded Patricia Maguire began slowly
to unloose its grip today.
She heard her mother’s coxing
voice, and drowsily, feebly obeyed
simple commands. Pat. held up n
thumb; Pat extended her ring finger-;
she wigtr'ed her right foot, and once
her eyelids twitched.
Two weeks ago the sleening b'-untv
of Oak Park as‘ounded her family by
a pathetically indolent, response to
suggestions printed on a slate.
Now her mother, fired by faith
that Fat some day will return to full
consciousness .hopes to hear her
speak. Since Feb. 15. 1932. when the
girl fell inter an exhausted torrxv-.
she has hot been aroused t-> conjgRi
ousneas.

PRODUCTION GAINS
BY CHEVROLET
DETROIT, Dec. 6—Production of,
Chevrolet passenger cars and trucks {
fir the model year 1934 will show an ;
increase of approximately 35 per
cent over corresponding figures for
last year, it was announced here to
day by M. E. Cuyle, president and
general manager of the Chevrolet
Motor company.
Analysis of this production shows
that all three Chevrolet lines—Mas
ter models, Standard models and
trucks—made gains in 1934, the
highest percentage of gain being
registered by the Standard series, the
world’s lowest-priced s i x-cylinder
car.
Some idea of the bearing which
this added production has on the
country’s economic recovery may be
gained from Mr. Coyle’s statement
that payrolls for the first 10 months
were 45 per cent greater than for all
of 1933. Wages and salaries paid to
Chevrolet employes, up to November
1, totalled $67,606,994.59, he said.
The greater part of the money ac
counted for in the present report,
Mr. Coyle pointed out, went to pro
ductive labor employed in the Chev
rolet manufacturing and assembly
plants throughout the country. The
figure represents Chevrolet’s direct
payrolls only. It does not, of course,
touch the vast expenditures for
materials’ used in Chevrolet products
nor does it include wages paid to em
ployes of the Fisher Body corpora
tion, makers of bodies for Chevrolet
cars, nor to the 50.000 sales and ser
vice employes of Chevrolet’s 10.000
dealers blanketing the country from
coast to coast.

rhe eye is one of the most delicate as well as one of the nr •<
important organs in the human body. Under modern Cfi 'iti
(ions most of tin abuse our eyes terribly, in most of our
we read *ew, play or work under an average of live to to
units of light. Five thousand to 10,000 units of light are
available outdoors on a cloudless day—on such a day there
is approximately 500 units of light in the shade. I
The result of the atrocious lighting con
ditions that are found in most of our
homes and schools is that 25 per cent of
our children are found to have defective
vision by the time they finish high school
—by the time they finish college this
proportion has grown to ,40 per cent.
Think of it! Two youngsters out of five
handicapped for life during their school
years as a result of studying under im
proper and insufficient light!
The 1. E. S. study and read
ing lamp has been designed
by illuminating engineers to
meet this situation. It pro
vides “proper” lighting as
well as “adequate” light for
study, reading and other oc
cupations calling for close
visual application. This
lamp, equipped with a 100
or 150-watt bulb, may be
£tod for
El
h¥* $750
50 cents down, $1.00 per
month with your light bill.
For general purposes anu
general illumination we rec
ommend the 1. E. S. specifi
cation floor lamp with the
? three-light bulb. This lamp
gives you three lighting
levels—i oo-watt, 200-watt
and 3 oo-watt, being thus ad
justable for whatever pur
pose one may desire to use
ft at any given time. This
lamp may be had for
