The Mountain

AutoLite and its 98,000 dealers bring you Mr. John Hodyack in tonight's presentation of... Suspense! Tonight AutoLite presents a story about heroism as we document the attempt of three brave men to conquer the mountain, our star Mr. John Hodyack.

Bottom of the evening to you? You mean top of the evening, don't you Mr. McSorley? No, bottom! My spirits are low as the water in my car's battery. Oh, you mean it's dry? Dry is a Irishman's wit.

Well, now it's an auto-light-stayful battery you needen. That's the famous battery that needs water only use. You mean that long life battery, hello? Tis one and the same. Fiberglass mats surround every positive plate to reduce shedding and flaking and give the auto-light-stayful longer life, as proved by tests conducted according to accepted life cycle standards.

Where could I be getting this marvel of marvel? Why, from your nearest auto-light battery dealer, the man who services all makes of batteries, to quickly locate him just for an Western Union buy number and ask for operator 25.

I'll tell you where to get an auto-light staple, the battery that needs water only three times a year in normal car use. And remember, from bumper to tail light, you're always right with auto-light. Now, Autolite presents the mountain, starring Mr. John Hodeac, hoping once again to keep you in suspense.

We made the fourth camp on the East Glacier 22,000 feet above sea level. In that cold thin air we stood looking up, and in the great loneliness we saw it. For a few seconds as the mist cleared, we saw it.

The mountain, the peak towering over us, was beautiful and terrible. Then a swirling curtain moved around it and it was gone again. There were six of us and the porters. Manton and Leeds had been sent back to the third camp some 4,000 feet below.
