Siphoning Gas AProved Danger To I 13 -Year- d O (By our Bayfield, correspondent) Shirley Cleave, 13 -year-old dau- ghter of Mr. and Mrs. Logan Cleave has learned by painful ex- perience that it is an extremely dangerous practice to siphon gaso- line. At her home on the Bronson Line, Stanley Township, on Satur- day, about half -past one o'clock, Shirley attempted to siphon gaso- line from a can which she had set on the trunk of the car, into the car tank. Her brother Allan, was standing beside her. Perhaps it was due to the fact that the gaso- line container was up high, or, per- haps, Shirley drew too hard on the tube to start it running. At any rate, she was not prepared for the sudden flow of gasoline a and swallowed some, Evidently dazed, her brother said that she stepped back instead of pulling the tube from her mouth, and re- ceived a. spurt of gas in the face. She ran to the house where she collapsed and was unconscious for half an hour. Her mother and other members of the family ad- ministered first aid.before taking her to Clinton Public Hospital where she was given oxygen and other medical treatment. Mrs. Logan Cleave remained at the hospital with her daughter un- til Monday evening when she carne home for a day. Shirley's con- dition was grave for a couple of days but she is now improving.. She is still suffering from inflam- mation of her chest and lungs from the fumes which she inhaled. Her stomach is comfortable now, and it is hoped that no other ill, effects will develop to retard the young girl's . complete recovery. Mr, and Mrs, 3. Rankin, Bobby and Tommy and their friend Fred- die, Goshen, Indiana, arrived Last' week to spend their vacation with the former's aunt, Miss C. P. Ran- kin.
