For Better or For Worse by Lynn Johnston for December 25, 2006

Deanna: The fire started in the apartment downstairs. Mr. Kelpfroth was smoking in bed... he'd turned off the smoke alarm so the landlady wouldn't find out. By the time our alarms went off, the fire was out of control. I took the kids down the fire escape. Michael ran up to the attic to get his book. The firemen got him just in time. He had to be checked for smoke inhalation... I picked him up at the hospital... and we all came here. Elly: So everyone's safe and sound? Deanna: Yes! Elly: Merry Christmas!
