WRONG ADDRESS;
AMBULANCE MAN
Y r y
NO MIND READER

Rush an ambulance TO Twelfth
and Elizabeth. There's been an
accidents Hurry" said an agitat-
cd feminine voice over the tele-
phone to r. K. Morris, of the Nor
ris mortuary, Wednesday evening.
Mr.. Morris rushed. But when
he arrived at the given address
he found traffic pursuing the even
tenor of its way. and no one had
heard Of the accident. Slightly
puzzled, he returned home, and
finding no further information
had been received. gave up. He
later learned there had been an
accident at the corner of Twelfth
and Elizabeth. in West Browns
Vile. though no one was seriously
injured.
And that's a reason the ambu-
lance drivers join with the fire de-
partment in a plea for correct adj
dresses. and both tell doleful tales
of hunting the fire or the acci-
dent from West Brownsville TO
town. and vice versa.
