Trial
& Error
Have you seen any of the new
curs yet? We have had severe:
pictures of the new models in
the paper this week and last
week. They are really going to
be a "whit-bang", ft Is very
fumy that when the new cars
come out. it seems that youi
old faithful car gets to acting
and Is criticized unmerci
fully. Just because the "bug"
bites you.

This story was told to me to
be a true story which happened
in Warsaw recently - true or
not, it still makes a good story
and I do not know this name of
but one person concerned,
therefore I am using ficticious
names to keep the story
straight.
One of the Circles of a church
in Warsaw met at the home of
Mrs. Turner, A member, Mrs.
Potts had not been feeling well
during the day, but decided that
tf she attended the Circle she
might feel better. So she went
to me Circle.
That was the wrong thing for
her to do as she got sicker by
the minute. The hostess and
another friend decided the best
thing was to take Mrs. Potts
home. The hostess and Mrs.
Jones assisted Mrs. Potts out
?f the house only to find that
Ktrs. Jones' car was blocked
by other cars. Mrs. Jones asked
Mrs. Turner to stay with Mrs.
Ados until she could drive the
car around the house and pic
Mrs. Potts up.
v Ajwwtt that time a life in
surance salesman from War
saw v-sunc down the highway.*
??BrJS.'Si5S
Mrs. Turner opened the car
door, put Mrs. Potts inwlthher
pocket book and wished her
better health, shut the car door
and went back to the meeting.
The salesman said, "Where
to, lady", and when she answ
? ered 'Tiome" that was where
he took her.
About that time the lady who
had gone to get her car came
running into the house to find
Mrs. Potts After a frantic te
lephone call, they found Mrs.
. Potts ssfe and sound at her
home In Warsaw.
