Ever Watch Yourself
Having An Accident?
LEW1STOWN, Mont. ^—Mar
tha Hoeckle, a school teacher from
nearby Brooks, watched a driver
less automobile roll across a street
slip between a fire hydrant and a
gasoline pump and crash to a stop
against a brick wall.
“I’d hate to be in the way of
that car,” she remarked to a com
panion as they walked on to a
teachers’ meeting.
Hours later she returned to
where she had parked her car,
found it gone and realized then
that it was her own automobile
she’d watched on the loose. She
found it—with fender and bumper
smashed—right where she saw it
stop.
