COPIED CHUCKLES
"Pome"
(Dedicated to several MHS girls)
The gum-chewing girl
And the cud-chewing cow
Are somewhat alike,
Yet different somehow.
What difference?
I see it now!
It's the thoughtful look
On the face of the cow.

PHOTOGRAPH?

TO CHOKE IN WINTER
Through no fault of your own, during past
winters, you may have formed a bad habit
of "too much choke." Perhaps your gasoline
absolutely demanded overtime choking—
harmful and wasteful. No need to continue
that way with Special Winter Blend Conoco
Bronze. You could scarcely keep it from
starting quickly, even if you wanted to. But
you'll take pride in your skill, you'll save
gasoline, and you'll make sure of topnotch
starting speed, by using your choke—and
Conoco Bronze—in this approved way:
(You may want to tear this out and keep it in the car for the next few days)
Leave ignition OFF* Wait for two or three engine revolutions.
Keep clutch pedal clear down.
Open hand-throttle about one-third.
Pull choke out full, if not automatic.
Now switch on the ignition.
Be ready to let up on starter.
And you'll know you can promptly begin to push
in the choke, as you hear the steady powerful firing
And then—but not before—operate your starter. of your Special Winter Blend Conoco Bronze.
*If your starter is of the type that does not spin with ignition off, consult Your Mileage Merchant.
FREE! Simple, helpful Complete Winter Care Card. Ask Your Mileage Merchant.
