They are going to foot the bill to take Nancy and a group of 16 New Cumberland Brownie Scouts from Nancy's old troop and their mothers on a' superpicnic here late today.

Gave Them Tickets

When Nancy and her mother first ‘came to the hospital here— wondering if the child ever would wilk again—the airline boys and girls bought round trip tickets for the two. { “We want you back here, Nancy,” they told her when they presented the tickets. “And we want to be around to watch you walk off the plane.”

Doctors at the hospital sald that it won't be long now until
