But John Commons was not happy
Fourteen years ago John Commons
forgot himself and dropped from

searCher in agriculture, and was sWai-
lowed up in another world
Eight years later he was declared
legally dead and his wife collected a
$4,000 insurance policy on his life.
a few weeks ago Commons was
found mot dead but alive. And he
was happy, for he had discovered
what he really wanted to do in life
10 drive a truck He is sound Of mind
and body although vague about many
of the things that happened TO him
