Death in 7-10ths Seco When you are traveling in an automobile at 55 MPH, which is lower than the day-time speed-limits speed-limits on most state-and federal highways and for any reason (i.e. carelessness of driver, malfunction of mechanical parts of the vehicle or a headon collision with another vehiele.) your vehicle is destined to be involved in a collision with some fmmova'ble object such as a tree, the following is a slow-motion split-second reconstruction of what will happen to you from the time of impact: l10th of a Second: The front bumper and chrome "frosting" of the grillwork collapses and slivers of steel penetrate the tree to a depth of IVi inches or more, 210ths of a Second: The hood crumples as it rises, smashing Into the windshield, while the rear wheels leave the ground spinning crazily. The fenders come Into contact con-tact with the tree, forcing the rear parts out over the front of the doors. The heavy structural members of the vehicle begin to act as a brake on the terrific forward motion of the vehicle. However, your body, with 20 times the normal gravitational gravita-tional force and with a weight of 3,200 pounds continues to move forward for-ward at the vehicles' original speed of 55 MPH towards your own private pri-vate collision rendezvous with what parts of the vehicle that dares to obstruct your path. Your legs, ramrod ram-rod straight snap at the knee joints. 3lQths of o Second: Your body is now off the seat, torso upright and broken knees are pressing a-gainst a-gainst the dashboard. The plastic and steel frame of the steering wheel begins to bend under your terrible death grip. Your head is now near the sun visor and your chest is above the steering wheel. fJQths of o Secondi The front 24 inches of your vehicle has been demolished, but the rear end is still traveling at an estimated speed of 35 MPH, but your own speed has diminished very little from the original ori-ginal 55 MPH. The half ton motor block crunches into the tree while the rear of the vehicle, like a bucking buck-ing horse, rises high enough to scrape bark off the low branches. SlOths of a Secondi Your fear frozen hands bend the steering column col-umn into an almost vertical position, posi-tion, while you are being empaled on the steering wheel by the force of gravity. Jagged steel puctures your lungs and intercostal arteries. Blood spurts from your Jungs and other wounds from flying glass and the compound fractures of your leg bones. 610ths of a Second: The brake pedal shears from the engine as sembly at the floor board, the chassis chas-sis bends in the middle, shearing body bolts and the rear of the ve hide, begins Its downward fall while the spinning rear wheels dig into the ground in their .final dying mo tion. Your shoes are ripped from your feet even though tightly laced. Your head smashes through the windshield. 7lQths of a Second: The entire writhing body of the vehicle js forced out of shape, Jn one last convulsion, the seat rams forward. pinning your body against the cruel steel of the steering shaft, blood spurts from your mouth, your heart has frozen from shock, Your LIFE has passed on leaving a badly mangled body behind in only 710ths of fl second, Now that the police, ambulance, wTecker and an ever growing crowd of curious spectators have gathered to witness the results of your last wild, action-packed ride, why not WiLL M Y h A IS II LARGE OR SMALL PARCELS OF DEEDED LAND OR RANCHES.

The amhulance driver with the help of eager volunteers gets your body out of the wreck. There is ne hurry for there is nothing that can be done for you now. Common remarks would probably be, "Well, he did not know what hit him," or "He felt no pain." The policeman goes about his job of investigation in a methodical, impersonal manner for this is just an every day occurrence, just another an-other statistic. He takes measurements, measure-ments, questions witnesses, determines deter-mines your identity, notifies your next of kin, etc. Even though, none of the spectators would say, "He must, have been doing over 100 MPH", the policeman will probably estimate your speed to have been In the vicinity of 55MPH 'for from experience, he can tell from the Impact conditions. Even though, the vehicle is a mass of mangled steel, the wrecker attendant hooks on and in a matter mat-ter of minutes has it on its way to the scrap pile. Within an hour your body has been removed to a slab in the morgue, the police have completed com-pleted their work, the wreck has been towed away and the only visible vis-ible signs left is the drying pool of your blood and a skinned roadside tree. What could have gone wrong?! Only you could tell exactly but you can't talk with us anymore. The, mass of mangled steel that was once your I960 Model Sooper Dooper was capable of speeds in excess of 100MPH. It was equipped with all the latest safety devices, such as power brakes and steering, seat belts, safety glass all around, reinforced re-inforced body and frame, safety tires, recessed steering wheel and padded dash. Could this mechanical wonder have developed a malfunction malfunc-tion sufficient to cause an alert, safety conscious driver like you to have lost control, even with all those amazing safety features that were built in? Or, could you as driver have been at fault? Did you get careless? Did you fall asleep? Were you fatigued? Should you have paid more attention to your doctor when he told you to slow down and take it easy? Did you have too much to drink? The damage has been done, regardless re-gardless ,of where the fault lies. Everything has been cleaned up except the expenses. The Double Indemnity Clause of your insurance policy will help.. Your retirement and social security benefits will be a great help to the wife and kids. Anyway, they will get along alright and will soon get used to not having hav-ing you around. Why not play it safe? Know your vehicles capabilities, capabili-ties, drive carefully, and save lives and property. CLASSIFIED PAYS BIG DIVIDENDS LIVESTOCK QUOTES July 26, 1960 .
