they are once adjusted, however, be
careful not to bend them. Do not
under any circumstances let your

when two total strangers crawled
through a window into the room,
having clambered up a fire escape.
Mrs. de Sapresi, awakened. kicked
her husband. She was too frightened
to speak, but her terror did not ex-
tend TO her legs. De Sapresi awoke
just in time TO find an electric flash
light being flashed into his wife's face
by one man, while the other grabbed
him.
