Then came the useful Nor dies who rendered so valu- able a service in opening and populating the north ern midwest.

 One of David Grayson's characters, a farmer who had moved to New York City, had a pumpkin vine that he trained vertically instead of letting it run along the ground. There was no ground on which it could run. When someone commented on the arrange ment, the pent-in gardener said: Tt is so in the city. There is no room to grow out so we grow up.' The elevator operators strike has demonstrated a few of the disadvantages of grow ing up" People are climb ing thirty or more flights of stairs to reach their offices and homes. A little disor- der in modern convenient ces often reduces a human being to the helpless status of a pumpkin vine.

fore much was known about motor

however, it is mo-
"Let me explain that. In the old
days Of the low compression motor, a
certain amount of hard carbon made
very little difference. But in these
days of modern high compression mo-
tors, just an ounce of hard carbon is
equal to putting an extra toms drag
en- the engine. Consequently, the mo-
torist of 1886 needs pure motor oil,
one which doesn't form hard carbon;
one like Sunoco which is guaranteed
carbon-free.
But that's not all. Many of the
new makes of cars have new and diff
ferent bearings. These bearings are
wear resistant and are made of metal
alloys. Some of these alloys are ex-
tremely sensitive to acid action, and
may be corroded or ruined in a few
hundred miles. Here's another reason

"while summer oil is made to resist

gone, and with it goes your need for

so pure it forms no hard carbon and

They danced together; attended par

IN trickling through to the general
public, which, even when 1t heard,
appeared to care little, for he then was
not yet King.
