Coat Hangers
By W. Scott Boyd
1 hate coat hangers!
For years I have gone home
every evening from work firm in
the belief that today I will conqueF
them. I take off my coat, go to the
bedroom closet and reach for a
hanger. Either there are too many
er there are none.
If there are too many they get
tangled and I can't get one down.
The result is a hopeless mess with
the whole bunch falling to the floor
in the dark recesses of the closet.
Down on hands and knees I try to
find one. They become tangled with
luggage and the odds and end that
the boy has hidden in the closet.
Out comes luggage, toys, and
odd shoes and coat hangers. I
climb to my feet, clutching a hang
er. The battle is wont I think.
I start to hang up my coat. First
I must make room for it. I give
the other clothing in the closet a
vicious shove along the pole.
"Don’t do that,” my wife
screams. "You’ll wrinkle every
thing in the closet!”
Gently I straighten out the cloth
ing. I squeeze my coat into the
closet and start to retreat.
"And what about that mess,” my
wife asks? She points to the lug
gage, toys and coat hangers.
In another half hour I am finally
ready to settle down with the news
paper. Someday I’m going to win
that battle!

A personnel expert states, “The
brilliant lazy man makes the best

potential executives. They have
half those qualities already.

Fashion models asked income

The Internal Revenue officials

A girl accused her boy friend of
stealing her coat when he left her
at a dance. Police found it in her
garbage can. Sour grapes, eh!
T HERE’S a big story in the price of this
beauty—but an even bigger one in
what you get for that price.
You get the highest horsepower and
compression ratio ever engineered into
this Buick Series—from the extra-thrifty
F-263 Fireball 8 Engine newly designed
for this Golden Anniversary SPECIAL.
You get. an even wider front seat than
this roomy Buick had before—plus a new
tilt-away feature that means easier in-
and-out.
You get real big-car comfort, from deep,
soft cushions with new zigzag type springs
in both the seats and the backs.
You get the steady going and the sweet
handling ease that come of a still finer
Million Dollar Ride. Steering ratio is in
creased. Front wheels have been brought
to zero-caster. And here, of course, you
get coil springs on each wheel, full-length
torque-tube drive, rigid and massive
X-braced frame—ride features you get
in no other car at the price.
Bm —you get the idea.
And when you realize that the figure on
this big, brawny, beautiful Buick SPECIAL
is just a few dollars more than you’ll pay
for oneof the so-called “low-priced three”
—we’re sure you’ll say: “This is for me!”
Come in and try it out—then tell us if
we’re wrong or right.
