Strange hotel beds and street noises are making my wo~k a bedtime bedlam and, soon as I make a tourist’s eyelids heavy, unaccustomed surroundings put them on the blink. qI've tried to get your help but can’t get near your show-room—everybody’s so wide-awake there. You know cars, I know sleep—let’s make the Oldsmobile Coach the car of his dreams for the tourist by fixing things so he can go to bed in it. € Do something, Dick, with your Oldsmability, to get me a spell of rest from trying to get my spell of rest back in trim with travelers.
