Mrs. Vic Morrow, who works in
the basement of Hunt’s Store, hand-
ing out the bargains to the custo-
mers in that department of the store,
has built a garage apartment, which
most readers of The Herald know is
a house where the automobile sleeps
downstairs while the family sleeps
upstairs. The combination dwelling

Mrs. Morrow works for a salary,
but she has been saving the widow’s

is proof of Sam Rayburn’s famous
statement that “we can do anything
we want to, if we want to bad
-enough.”
