1How did the woman get help?
2When a light passenger plane flew off course some time ago,
3it crashed in the mountains and its pilot was killed.
4The only passengers,
5a young woman and her two baby daughters, were unhurt.
6It was the middle of winter.
7Snow lay thick on the ground.
8The woman knew that the nearest village was miles away.
9When it grew dark,
10she turned a suitcase into a bed and put the children inside it,
11covering them with all the clothes she could find.
12During the night, it got terribly cold.
13The woman kept as near as she could to the children and even tried to get into the case herself, but it was too small.
14Early next morning,
15she heard planes passing overhead and wondered how she could send a signal.
16Then she had an idea.
17She stamped out the letters 'SOS' in the snow.
18Fortunately, a pilot saw the signal and sent a message by radio to the nearest town.
19It was not long before a helicopter arrived on the scene to rescue the survivors of the plane crash.
