Woman to Woman By Mary Morris

It seems to me that everyone should know something about ambulances, — and ambulance service, —for none of us ever knows when the necessity for calling an ambulance, in an emergency, will arise. My work among funeral directors naturally brings me into direct contact with ambulance services. I have found ♦hat the most important single consideration is. perhaps, the attendants. The ambulance itself, and its equipment, are the next most Important things to think about. The ambulance service or the ZWICK Funeral Home is particularly fine. They maintrfn a modern Chrysler ambulance, completely equipped, and manned by experienced, welltrained men.
