ROSEDALE HAS
 GO-ZIP STATION.
Beautiful Plant Erected On Montgomery High
 way Near Edgewood

With the opening of the new Go-1ip filling station next week at Rosedale, the General Oil corporation is adding to- its points of service to Birmingham motorists, the most elaborate and. artis- tic drive-in station yet erected in its program of extending Go-Zip service to every part of Birmingham and envi- rons;
 Carrying out the city beautiful idea. which is the keynote of the General Oil corporations service station building program, approximately $12,000 has been spent in the construction of the ornamental plant at Rosedale, on the intersection of the Montgomery high way and the Edgewood or old Oxmoor road, just to the right of the new Auto Inn-a metropolitan refreshment resort which has just been completed.
 The new filling, station, like it's pre- decessors, is of colonial pattern, bril- liantly illuminated, with the Go-Zip service sign in co1ors flashing its invi- tation to automobilists to- "stop and fill up" with the new motor fuel The pleasing exterior of the new station is further enhanced by flower beds and shrubbery, arranged about the entrance. Access is furnished on a tworway drive from both the Montgomery highway and the Edgewood road. The formal opening will take place some time next week, according to MT. Gregory John ston.
 While we are going slightly off the beaten path in building Go-Zip station in. Rosedale," said MT. Johnston Sat urday, i've feel that the home owning movement in Shades Valley and the increased travel on the new Montgom- cry highway will fully justify the ex- penditure which we are making in this locality. Demand for Go-Zip is increas- ing 50 rapidly in every section of Bir- mingham that the General Oil corpora tion realizes its obligation to extend constantly its service facilities. The present month is breaking all previous sales records in the history of the com pany. In fact, from the time Go-Zip was first placed upon the market, sales for each month have shown a steadily increasing upward development. To of ficials of the General Oil corporation, the most gratifying part of our expan- sion is the fact that we are building all the time our own clientele-that is to say that more and more motorists are daily becoming converts to Go-Zip and nothing else. This speaks we'll for the results which Go-Zip is giving, in its ability to do everything which gas oline can do and then, on top of that, give more power, keep motors cleaner and prevent dilution of oil in the crank case, thus making less wear and tear on motors. In supplying automobilisA with a motor fuel which can really do these things, we feel that we are rem dering a genuine service, and one which is appreciated"

THESE MAKINGS'
 OF 4 GOOD CAR
More Than Car Needed For
 Transportation

"The best automobile in the world is the one that delivers the biggest meas ure of serviceability to its owner for every dollar he has invested in it." says P. R. Mccormack, of Mccormack Brothers Motor Go.
 Tt takes more than the car alone to fill any contract for automotive trans portation. The best car is the combi- nation of good manufacturing with local dealer responsibility. A good car in Kokomo might not be good car in Ho- boken. It depends on the manner in which the man who sells it meets the local needs of the man who drives it."

attack said TO have been made by

the chest with the remaining part
of the club. ..... ...,...,

prise witness in the dynamite muir
der case of j. J. Maguirre aged Los
Olivos blacksmith, killed when his
