QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Q I have been drawing $57.50
each month from my $10,000 War
Risk Insurance since my discharge
from the Army after World War I.
Are such payments discontinued after
the $10,000 is exhausted?
A No. Payments may be con-
tinued for the remainder of your life
provided your total disability remains
unchanged.
Q I would like to appear before
the Rating Board to explain my own
claim. May I do this?
A Yes, but a definite appoint-
ment should be made and you should
be there at the time for which the
hearing is designated. Expenses in-
cidental to going to or from the Rat-
ing Board hearing must be borne by
you.
Q Why do I have to pay the two
monthly premiums instead of one
when I reinstate my lapsed National
Service Life Insurance policy ?
A One premium is for the 31-day
grace period following the date of
lapse, during which the insurance was
continued in force without payment
of premium; the other is for the eur-
In November, 1920, I came to Tex-
as. I’d had to sell the paper which
I owned up in Arkansas and come to
this state to rest in order to build
up my health. After riding on the
train for almost 24 hours, I prepared
to get off in San Antonio. Nearly a
thousand miles from home and friends,
a stranger in a strange land, I felf
lonely, indeed. •
Imagine my surprise as I stepped
off the train and heard a voice ex-
claim, “Boyce House, what are you
doing way down here?" The speak-
er was a schoolmate of Central High
days in Memphis, Tenn., who was at
the station to meet a relative. The
sight of a familiar face and the
sound of a friendly voice drove away
the “lost” feeling.
I have never seen that schoolmate
since then.

Q My son, a World War II veteran
is in a VA hospital in a distant city.
Will I be permitted to visit him every
day if I go to the city where the
hospital is located?
A Yes, if his condition permits
such visits. All Veterans Adminis-
tration hospitals hasve special hours
set aside each day for visitors, the
same as civilian hospitals.
city was in Chicago on a business
trip. Under the impulse of a spirit
of mischief, he entered the telegraph
office and sent a message to a man
living in his town. The telegram
read, “Flee at once; all is discovered.
(Signed) You know who."
When he returned, he found that
the man to whom he had sent the
message had left—and he never did
come back!
Jim White was a cowboy out in
New Mexico. One day, he came
into town with a story of a wonderful
cave which he said he had discovered
; and explored.
| Nobody believed him, however.
! It took more than 20 years before
j he could persuade anyone to go out
■ with him and see if he was telling
j the truth. At last a group of busi-
i nessmen yielded and he made good
. his most enthusiastic descriptions of
! the wonders of the cave.
And that is how Carlsbad Cavern
I came to be known to the world.

Here you let your left foot idle
comfortably wherever you wish
— there’s no clutch pedal to
push, ever.
Here your mind’s free completely
of remembering when to shift —
no gears ever shift anywhere in
the car.
Here, you glide over ground and
grades in swift and utter smooth-
ness as constant and unbroken as
Niagara’s flow.
For here you have the only pas-
senger car in America where liquid
replaces both the usual clutch
and the low-second-high gear
sequence of conventional trans-
missions.
White sidewall tires, as illustrated, available at extra cost.
Here you sit in blissful ease
while the power plant itself meets
and masters the thousand and
one situations that come up in
travel.
Gentle grades, steep hills, long
straightaways, stop streets —once
your lever’s set, you simply step
on the gas —and take them all in
liquid-smooth luxury!
Does all this sound fabulous? It is.
So fabulous that folks are signing
up in droves for the ’48 fashion
plate with this new-wonder
drive.
So to take command of this
travel er-touched-with-magic,
come see us quickly and get your
order in.
We’ll take it in sequence whether
or not you have a car to trade.
