First-Aid Class

[snowyday]

A woman who had driven the other members of a first-aid class nearly frantic by her continual criticism of the whole idea turned up one morning a complete convert—first-aid training was a wonderful thing.

“Why,†she said, yesterday I was sitting at home when I heard a screeching of brakes and then a terrific crash. Two cars had upturned right in front of our gate and four people were lying in the road. One woman had a deep cut in her arm, two men had broken legs and another severe lacerations of the face. But, thank heaven, I remembered exactly what you had taught me. So I bent over and put my head between my knees—and I didn’t faint.
