MONTE VISTA, Colo, Jan. &c.
Marooned in 20-below zero temper
atures for two nights, a trapper and
his 12-year-old son told today how
they escaped freezing to death by
nursing a fire inside their automo-
bile with bits of their clothing.
Sam Potter of Monte Vista and
his son Cecil were rescued yesterday
from their car, snowbound by a
blizzard near the San Luis Lakes,
about 20 miles northeast of Monte
Vista.
Running Mr.. Potter's trap line in
his old model car, the two were
caught in sudden blizzard and the
car stalled, Mr.. Potter told Murray
Trump, park service employe.
When night came, Mr.. Potter
ripped pieces of upholstery from the
car seats and kindled a fire.
Mr.. Potter said he and his boy
huddled through the night close
over the small flame, which they
kept burning with scraps torn from
their clothing.
After dawn, Mr.. Potter said he
got the car started. The car plowed
through the snow-choked roadway
only a short way before it ran out
OF gas.
Without food, the two spent a
second night in the car over the
same kind of tiny fire.
Mr.. Potter said he was about to
start walking the lonely road to

this:
We were having lunch In a pop

] had been short-changed twenty
five cents.
/ told the man and he declared
| was wrong. l grew indignant
and demanded my right change,
and after much argument. got il,
/ then informed him that l would
never eat in his place again.
Now my chum is angry and de-
clares that 1t was not worth the
small amount TO make such n
scene. l did not make scene as
my voice was low and still think
l am right. wish you would
print your opinion of this matter.
F.. w.
II your friend is angry be-
cause you had the courage 20
demand your rights then you
had better let her stay angry
until she can reason more in

the day came she would be the
maid of honor at my wedding II
so happens that my fiance and I
hadn't counted on having 10 wait
so many years to be married. and
meantime my very young and only
sister has caught up with us and
she would now be old enough to be
my attendant. Since il is you
who say that a bride who is not
wearing brides clothes should
have only one attendant. will you
now help me to decide whether to
choose my sister or my lifelong
friend It isn't easy 10 hurt the
feelings of either
Answer: II is true that bride
wlo does not wear bridal clothes
is not supposed to have more than
one attendant, but on occasion this
rule is relaxed and the two brides
maids. walking together. are con-
sidered as making only one unit.
1t would not be impossible there

Grey, and often wonder how you
manage to deal with so many diff

UNCERTAIN.
Don't try TO understand any
one as rude as your so-called
friend. She is bit too sure of
herself at present - like many
persons she doesn't realize that
hard times might overtake her
sometime, find her accepting
charity and having to make the
best of il.
Your husband Is right, For
this woman to take offense at
perfectly friendly gesture on
your part proves that she thinks
only in terms OF herself and her
cheap false pride. You arc much
better off without her so-called
friendship. Besides you did
much kinder act when you passed
your children's clothes along sto

Dinner al Little Tables

great value.
Dinner nj Little Tables
Dear Mrs. Post. | am giving a
dinner at bridge tables That is,
this is not To be a buffet party,
but the tables are to be set and
two mattresses will wait on six
tables. Our dining room is very
small and our living room i'm
mense. which is why we give our
dinners of any size at all in the
living room on bridge tables. Up
to now I have never set the tables
with candles. feeling perhaps that
they were not suitable on small
tables. However, l do think
candlelight so much more flatter-
ing TO silver and glass than other
light. and wonder what you think
about putting the low candlesticks
two of them-on each table !
could buy plain glass ones for this
purpose.
Answer: They would be quite
proper and add very attractive
decoration to the tables and to the
room.
