MEET "DOC" GRIMES. H. F. S!
v «. ■ ^

Things are mighty different for "Doc" these days. He looks
back wistfully to the time when he had plenty of gas, tires and
other products for his customers . . . when experienced help
was plentiful . .. and his service was something he could —and
did —brag about.
Today-—he has to work harder and longer doing most of
his work. He knows doctors, war workers and lots of other
essential drivers must keep going with old cars and old tires.
And he figures it's up to him to see that they do.
There may be times when he can't sell you a thing — but
"Doc" is always glad to see you, always glad to give you any
of the typical Humble Services that will help keep your car in
good shape. For he's looking forward to the day when you
can once more drive into his station, road map in hand — and
say, "Fill her up, Doc We're heading for the highway."
