Their dismay turned to relief, however, when they saw a car approaching with two Scouters. Here was the male li awn needed to change a tire. “May we send out a garageman?” the* one occupant of the auto queried ;u< they drove on. Feminine hands changed the tire, as Mrs. Hersh reminded her charges of the importance of doing a good deed daily” using the "horrible example" as what not to do.
