Who wants
to live like a
Penguin ?
On one of those near-zero
mornings a few days ago, while
• you were dreading the thought
of having to close the bedroom
■windows, the jolly old Penguin
was rising for breakfast. With-
out even a thermometer to tell
him that it was fifty below zero,
he dove into the arctic waters
for his family’s food. But the
Penguin has a fleecy overcoat
for his protection.
Since Mother Nature leaves you
to shift for yourself, you can’t^
keep away the gooseflesh by
pretending you’re a Penguin.
An abundant supply of natural
gas is your protection and with
the strike of a match it leaps
into life to blanket you with
glowing heat when you need
protection against the'eold.
While you slept, during the re-
cent frigid weather, prepara-
tions were being made over this
company’s entire system to sup-
ply the fuel you would require
the next morning. Every man
and piece of equipment at the
company’s command was taxed
to capacity; millions of addi-
tional cubic feet of gas were
required on short notice? and
then after a couple of hours,
consumption became normal
again. To render such service
calls for millions of dollars of
invested capital in equipment
that is used but a few hours
during the year on those rare
occasions when warm Southern
breezes rebel.
Natural Gas is your.ideal fuel
—instantly available at the
touch, of a match.

Zangara held up his fingers—eight

“Yes,” said the judge.

Senator Woodward had asked that
the letter be stricken from the record
and said any statement that he was
