A very fat man was walking on the promenade at At-
lantic City when he saw a weighing machine with the notice,
“I speak your weight.”-
He*'put a penny in the slot and stood on the platform. A
voice answered, “One at a time, please!”
St. Peter: “Where you from, son?1”
New Arrival: “Texas.”
St. Peter: “Well, come on in, but you ain’t gonna like it.”
The car stopped suddenly in a dark country lane. “Out of
gas,” our hero said. The girl friend pulled a flask from her
handbag.
“Wow,” said he. “What’s that—Bourbon?’
“No,” she retorted, “gasoline.”
Sam: “Wooden it be sompin, boy, effn a man could mar-
ry a beautiful woman an’ a good housekeeper?”
Bo: “Yeah, boy! Dat would, but doan forgit—dere’s a

You Won’t Get Old
So Fast
If You Keep Your Car
YOUNG!
An automobile is a better manufacturing job than a
human being in respect to repairs and replacements.
Each and every part of your car can be replaced
with a new one—often a better one — when wear
and tear make it necessary.
But unlike its driver an automobile can not correct
its own defects. It has no power to restore itself. It
must have help or it will steadily deteriorate until
it is only junk.
You can enjoy new car pep and performance as long
as you own your car, regardless of years or miles.
New get-up-and-go — new life — new power — are
readily available.
But taking your car to a repair shop is much like
going to a doctor. Give your car the benefit of expe-
rience, responsibility, up-to-date tools, equipment,
methods. Take your car to a place where service is
a serious matter, not a side-line.
We offer your car all modern facilities. This service
shop is as up-to-the-minute as a big medical clinic.
Our treatments make cars last longer, look better.
Safety of life and limb on winter highways depends
on how your car is feeling. Why not look into that
matter now?

Coat Hanger Supply
Armament production has so restricted the supply
of steel wire for coat hangers that our suppliers now
tell us that we must drastically cut our use of coat
hangers.
PLEASE, PLEASE, bring us a hanger with each
garment you bring us for cleaning and pressing.
Otherwise, we may eventually have to deliver your
garments without hangers.
Your thoughtful co-operation will be deeply appre-
ciated.
