BOMB SHELTER 2 2 2
KIDS LOOK
TRUCK
FAMILY & HOLE
This may seem like a heck ,f a way to plant a bomb shelter,
but it s not much more work than filling up that big hole.
The Lampleys take it easy, along with them other bystanders,
while the trucks goes about itts job.
The truck is just what the doctor ordered, and the only
casualties so far have been a tree, a gutter on one side
of the house, and various shrubs and other vegetation,
trampled by workers and spectators. As the shelter sinks
slowly into its resting place, the man who made it is on
hand for the climax. E.O. Gillam says modestly itts the
best shelter on the market.3
One by one, the Lampleys drop by for a look at the tank,
which is designed to shield them from tornadoes andatomic bombs.
