/''VNE of the lowest priced and most economical cars
V_/ in the world today stands in a class by itself for
sheer performance and driving pleasure. Over two and a
half million American motorists have swung to it in less
than four years. Over one million chose it in 1935 alone.
That car is the Ford V-8. Now we urge you to drive
this great new 1936 Ford V-8 before you decide on any
car at any price. We urge you to know for yourself the
“feel” of Ford V-8 engine performance—the almost effort-
less ease of handling—the remarkable stability under all
road conditions—the true fine-car riding comfort—which
have “taken hold” so convincingly with the hardest-
buying audience that ever tested America’s cars.
Ask your Ford Dealer for a car to try. You don’t
really know a Ford V-8 until you drive one. And you can’t
judge modern car values until you know the Ford V-8!
Performance with Economy
Terms es low as $25 a month, after down
payment, under UCC Vl% a month plans.
$510 and up, FOB Detroit,, including
Sufety Glass throughout in every body
type. Standard accessory group extra.
MONIES
At The Texas
Folks, here’s that man again!
Harold Lloyd in his newest and
biggest laugh lilt, "The Milky Way,”
for Thursday and Friday. One mad
whirl of merriment!
A grand cast! Adolphe Menjou,
William Gargan, Helen Mack, Ver-
ree Teasdale and Dorothy Wilson.
A hurricane of laughter with Lloyd
at the helm. A tornado of wise-
cracks that will keep you In a gale
of laughter!
Some time during his life every
man dreams of doing the wild things
that Lloyd does In this comedy. Ev-
ery woman, too, has hoped that the
man of her choice would prove a
hero In a crisis when a bully, clever
with his dukes, starts out to make
the object of her affections the ob-
ject of his objections.
Lloyd Is seen as a humorless, shy,
Ineffectual boob of a milkman whose
only aim In life Is to deliver more
milk bottles to more customers.
When a drunken fight champion
takes a swing at the milkman, an
adept at ducking, and knocks him-
self out (how it happens is the fun-
niest thing that has been seen In
many a moon), the milk-bottle boy
takes the credit for the victory and
Is launched as a contender for the
middleweight championship.
There Is not a single moment In
the picture without Its generous
quota of laughs. The gags flash
past the screen like comets. Once
the mJJkman wins confidence in
himself, he challenges any fighter
to hit him, and keeps ducking with
both hands in his pockets.
Lloyd sidesteps, paws with his
feet, pfedals and pirouettes, whips
and darts hither and yon, as though
he were a stage dancer.
Adolphe Menjou does a particular'
ly fine piece of acting as the fighter
promoter who takes the milkman
in hand, and makes a pugilist-danc
er out of him. 'William Qargan and
Lionel Slander, as drunken fighting
bucks, try their utmost to land hefty
rights and lefts on the prize ducker
of the age. Verree Teasdale, Helen
Mack and Dorothy Wilson give good
performances.
At The Liberty
“Hot Off the Press,” a riotous
comedy, opens a week of excellent
pictures at the Liberty. Showing
Wednesday and Thursday, It is a
picture that will keep you enter-
tained throughout the evening.
For Thursday night, a big double
bill, “Hot Off the Press" and “Dan-
gerous Waters," starring Jack Holt,
Robert Armstrong and Grace Brad-
ley. It’s a swiftly paced thrilling
adventure, made exciting by scenes
of fire and mutiny at sea. Holt,
the star of this interesting screen
play, Is a sea captain and he gives
a grand performance. He is a com-
pelling figure with his men, but In
the hands of his faltless bride, Grace
Bradley, he Is helpless. Armstrong
gives a grand performance as Holt’s
best friend to whom his wife Is
making advanoes. It’s a romantic
drama of love and one that you’ll
remember. Also comedy.
For Friday night, “Dangerous Wa-
ters,” serial and comedy are billed.
Your favorite western star, Buck
Jones, In one of his best two-gun
shows, “Ivory Handle Guns," a dou-
ble-barreled picture that will thrill
you and keep you In suspense until
its thrilling climax. Also serial and
comedy.
The picture you’ve been waiting
for; opens at the preview Satur-
day, "Rose Marie” with Nelson Ed-
dy and Jeanette MacDonald to thrill
you with glorious melody! It’s the
story of a grand opera singer who

travels incognito into the back-
woods in search of her brother, a
criminal from Justice. Also search-
ing Is Sergeant Bruce of the Cana-
dian mounted police. They fall in
love until she realizes the mission
of the other. The crashing climax
and poignant ending of the story
will be remembered long after most
pictures are forgotten, it's the pic-
ture of the year! Runs through
Tuesday. Also news reel and comedy.

(1) Soon as your engine stops, the drain plug’s out.
(2) Your “Any-Old” oil, that’s all done for, drains like
watery ink. Back goes the plug.
(3) Germ Processed oil—correct grade on can—is un-
sealed and poured while you look.
(4) Alert Conoco man does all his stuff on your car and...
Before you realize it, you’ve quit driving by ear, or count-
ing your car’s birthdays. It’s not your imagination—it’s
this alloyed oil. It soothes and fortifies your engine
with a sturdier film-cushion than you ever heard of, but
that’s not all!
Alloying also gives this patented Germ Processed oil
its uncanny ability to “join up” with metal. All the i'
ner engine surfaces become definitely oil-plated. Even
those modern types of bearings, easily corroded by some
oils, are double-guarded. For this alloyed oil is IN them,
and the Germ Processed film is ON them. You’re just
that much farther away from your next stop for oil.
