Religion Thru
The Arts Theme
OF Club Meeting

The program on Religion
Through the Arts at Christmas,
arranged by Mrs. ]. Howard
Link and Mrs. Charles L. Cure
ton III, was presented in three
phases at the: Twentieth Gen.
tury Club. The room was DOM
mated by a Christmas tree un-
der which there were gifts, an
exchange between members.
Mrs. Martin Golden talked on
the Feast of Chanuka, which
she said is "a happy holiday
for children" and celebrates the
triumph of right over might, and
religion over paganism. She
demonstrated using the Men
orah, lighting eight candles, and
traced the history of the cere-
mony. Mrs. Richard c. Bobzin,
a native of Germany, told of
the customs of that country,
saying that the accent is on
children at Christmas. She told
of the importance of the observ-
ance of the Advent season and
of Holy Eve, and said that the
interior of homes are decorated
only in white, and a goose is
the basis of the traditional
Christmas dinner. The Rev.
Spencer R. Quick, rector of st.
Peters Episcopal Church, a
connoisseur of religious art, H.
lustrated his talk with repro
ductions of great paintings, used
especially to teach church school
children. The pictures represent
ed the work of artists from
early days to the modern and
surrealistic schools, and the
symbolism was interpreted by
the speaker. Mrs. William D.
Kirk presided, and the treas
urer's report was given by Mrs.
Lawrence C. Ellery. Miss Ber
tha Smithers, who was presi-
dent of the club in l9ll-l9l2,
read an original poem written
when she was very young. Mrs.
Clark Knotts headed the hostess
committee, assisted by Mrs.
Francis ]. O'Neill, Sr., Mrs. Cor
don Edwards, Mrs. w. ]. M.
Wroten, Mrs. Harold Smith,
Mrs. Martin Golden, Mrs. Har-
ry c. Johnson, and Mrs. Andre

OF Zwaanendael
Holiday Display

A Noah's Ark, h a n d m a d e

under the Christmas tree. This
year it is in the Zwaanendael
Museum and is a part of the
Christmas display which was
lent by Marjorie Speakman, In

handcarved wooden figures re-
presenting Noah, his family,
and the animals which march
ed, two by two, into the ark
before the great flood prophesi-
ed by Noah. Noah's Ark, once
a part of every Christmas, is
now a very rare toy and is very
desirable to collectors.

A Law Against 1t

In Massachusetts, Christmas

Bad Medieine!

DR.. Leonard w. Larson, preSi-
dent Of the American Medical As
o0c1GtiOn, testified before the
House Ways and Means Committee
in opposition to the bill which
would provide government-paid
medical care to everyone drawing
social security benefits. He had
an extremely forceful case-for
the ANA has compiled more than
so reasons why this proposal
would amount to billions of dol
lars worth of bad medicine for the
people of this country"
At the end OF his testimony, DIR.
Larson came straight to the heart
OF the matter with these words:
"The American people have been
called upon to sacrifice to build
up the strength of the nation SO
that we can meet the rising peril
Of communism. But we don't be-
lieve that America can be
strengthened by sacrificing tn e
best system of medical care in the
world. We don't believe America
can be strengthened by copying
medical systems under which one
foreign country after another has
lost leadership in the science and
arts of medicine. We don't believe
the strength OF this nation lies in
the direction of substituting medi-
cal failure for medical success"
The basic question is whether
the medical profession or bu-
reaucracy is to establish the rules
governing the practice of medicine
and the related arts. What govern
ment pays for, it controls-and all
the arguments on earth can't con-
travene that historical truth. The
proposed bill would be bad even
il it didn't cost a single penny
because it would inevitably lead to
q deterioration of the standards of
medical care.

ToDAY, every Shell dealer has new
! Shell X-lOO Premium Motor Oil
ready for your next change-over.
New X-lOOe Premium is unlike any
other motor oil. 1t eliminates deposit
that all other premium motor oils help
create themselves. This deposit is addi-
tive ash. 1t is caused by the metallic
additives used to prevent scufing, sludge
deposits, oxidation, and so forth.
With each stroke Of the piston, these
additives can deposit metallic salts in
the combustion chamber. Here they
burn and form additive ash.
This crusty ash can build up in your
combustion chamber, can cause your
engine to knock and run roughly.
New X-lOO Premium doesn't contain
a single metallic additive. No metallic
additives-no additive ash.
Additive ash is just one internal trou
BE that can cause engine problems. You
should know about four others, too.

acid with alkaline additives. But the
neutralizing effect of the oil gets weaker
as engine acid eats up the alkalinity-
until eventually such an additive stops
working altogether.
Shell X-lO0 Premium doesn't depend
on alkalinity. 1t actually plates all en-
CINE surfaces with thin chemical film.
The metal "adsorbs' some of the oils
protective qualities Chemists call this
phenomenon "chemisorption."
Theprocess of "chemisorption" offers
unique long-lasting protection against
acid attack.
How much does it cost?
1t you now use premium motor oil,
you'll get Shell X-lO0 Premium for
about the same price.
If you're now making do with ordi-
nary motor oil, you'll pay about s3.6 a
year more-less than penny day
extra : assuming you drive at about the
national average Of 10000 miles year
and get regular oil changes.
Quite bargain for the one motor
oil that fights additive ash and four
other troubles to help prolong the life
OF your engine.

Premium were torn down and inspected.
The amount of sludge was astonish-
ingly low. In some cases there was SO
little it could hardly be measured.
Ignores temperature changes
Many motor oils tend to become too
thick when cold and too thin when hot.
This is hard on your engine.
New Shell 400 Premium is an all
year oil. Here's how it works. Alkaline
has molecular structure that resembles
a basket of eels.
When the oil is cold, Alkadine's eel
like molecules curl up as if for comfort.
In effect, they take up less space in the
oil-and the oil flows freely through the
tightest bearing.
When the oil is hot, the molecules
uncurl, take up more room-and the oil
resists thinning. New X-l00 Premium
lubricates just as effectively in June as
it does in January.
Fights engine acid new way
Automobile engines manufacture acid.
1t can cause more wear than friction.

leak out of your cooling system into
your crankcase.
Many oils can react chemically with
permanent anti-freeze to form horri-
bic sludge-so sticky that it can bring an
otherwise healthy engine to standstill.
Then you may be in for repair bill.
New Shell X-lOO Premium resists re-
action with any sort of anti-freeze. 1t
shrugs it off.
DisarmS crankcaSe dirt
All engines accumulate crankcase dirt.
The problem is to stop the many differ
,ent kinds of dirt particles from ganging
up, and forming sticky sludge, which
can clog your engine.
Most premium oils use detergent
additive to do the job. But the majority
of these additives are metallic and cause
that old devil = ash.
Shells solution is to replace the de-
tergent with dispersant-a remarkable
new ingredient called Alkadine*
Alkaline works to disperse dirt parti-
cles-in effect, holds them apart so
that they don't form sticky sludge.
Alkaline additive is potent stuff.
