Of this for you.
But sometimes, the problem can be the
wrong blend Of gasoline.
In summer, for example, excessive heat
can make winter grade gasoline bubble

Nth the flow, causing rough running.
Shell scientists don't let that happen with
Super Shell. When hot weather threatens,
they adjust Super Shells 9-ingredient for
mula to give it the correct volatility for
smooth summer driving.
Test rs. Reserve power

NONE NEEDED

For years men have attempted
to improve anything which nature
produced. For centuries women
have succumbed to the whispers
of vanity and tried to revamp
their faces and figures.
Probably our cave dwelling
ancestors resembled The Flint
stones on television. Even they
managed no doubt to find an odd
skinned dinosaur to make a new
kind of style. No one knows who
started killing the small minks
but miladies Of cons gone by
must have smiled as their
spouses came in bearing big
furry bundles.
Diggers have unearthed ancient
remnants of facial makeup. Cleo
patra was a striking beauty but
she won Antony not only with
vile and wisdom. She used mas
cara and lip brightener, too.
Who knows she may have ini-
tiated the original 'come hither
with the eye approach"
Not only can the modern atomic
age female buy eye makeup she
can change the color of her orbs
with different kinds of contact
lenses. No one has done more
TO make the feminine face hid
eous than the purveyors of cos
meticS.
Now that men have listened
to the siren song of vanity, too.
Toupees, waist SINNERS, shoe
elevators and hair darkeners are
no longer feminine products.
The bright young men who sit
gazing from yon experimental
chambers were searching for new
vistas to conquer when one of
them spied a traditional Christ
mas tree being adorned for the
festive season. AS its stately
branches were bedecked with tin
sci balls. glimmering lights, and
other beautiful objects, one wiz
ard decided to make an imitation
that would have the world beatA
ing pathway to his company's
door.
His attempt might have been
one of those spindly, drab imi-
tation trees which came into
vogue many moons ago when |
was a tot. 1t resembled a tree
only in color. Usually it stood
in a small white or red pot.
Its branches were withered and
weak. Sometimes few pa st holly
pieces were on it.
AS years rolled by, everyone
thought that Mother Nature wasn't
doing a grand job making the
living trees which could easily
be cut down and brought into
the towns. From all people in
all walks of life--Christmas be-
came the time for changing any
old fashioned item into a fan
tasy object.
Rudolph usurped a place with
Donner and Blitzen on Santa's
sleigh. Not only did he have an
entire song dedicated to him,
but he had a red nose. Trees
flourished in pink, lavender, red,
mauve and silver.
Somebody saw Daddy kissing
Santa Claus and we we're forced
to listen to the chipmunks Christ
mas songs. Some day | expect
for the bright young men and
women sitting In their cloiStered
castles of test tubes and mass
advertising psychology to come
out and feel the old fashioned
Spirit of Christmas and redis-
cover the old tree, the old Saint
Nick and the older true meaning

GOOD HUNTING:
The State Game Commission is
predicting that deer hunting will
be excellent again this winter.
Game Biologist j. H. Gwynn esti-
mates that we had about 2O8. 900
deer in Virginia after last hunting
season. Additional losses of all
kinds probably reduced that num-
Der somewhat more. Normal re-
production will increase the herd
to about $4,000 by hunting sea
son." he said. Last seasons rec
ord kill was 36.l65. That means
about one out Of every four deer
hunters killed deer last year.
There were 10000 deer hunters
in the woods.
EXCELLENT IDEA:
We saw Landon Atkins buy a
bag full of peas this week. He is
going to sow them on a cleared
spot, near one of his favorite
hunting places. A real bird hunter
thinks about Ibis" birds all year
long; and the more feeding patch

What makes for a successful
fisherman? Some people can
spend hundreds of dollars on
equipment. and can't catch a
cold in the winter time" Others
can take an old pole and come
back with the limit every time
There are millions of tips for
the unlucky fisherman. but the
main secret. according to L. M
Pairet, master fisherman. is to
fish. If you don't go fishing, you II
never catch a fish The second
most important thing is to go
where there are some fish.
That's elementary, of course
Now it is generally conceded that
fishing is best when the moon is
neW-betWeen the new moon and
the first quarter, that is. Fish
generally don't bite we'll when
the barometer is falling. SO try
to wait until it is rising, or when
it is higher than normal.
Another good time is when the
weather man says a "cold front"
is going to pass over. You should
enjoy good fishing as the cold
front passes, even in the rain.
What bait or lures to use? Wa
ter temperatures play a big part
in deciding. When the water is
very cold or very warm, fish us
ually lie deep. so we should have
best luck using bait or jigs W
fished deep When water is quite
cold or quite warm. live bait,
spoons. jigs or deep-running plugs
are the answer Fish them will
below the surface. and try vary
ing depths until you know at what
level the fish are.
Ideal temperatures are when
waters range from 5O0F to
70'F. Then. fish should be feed
ing near or on the surface, allow
ing us to use flies. nylnphs.
spoons. spinners, near-surface or
top-water plugs.
Dull colored and smaller lures
usually bring best results when
water is low and clear. Bright
lures are preferred when streams
are high; when the water is dis
colored. or when the day is dark.
Under bright or low-water condi-
tons. lures that are too large or
that have much flash may scare
the fish, rather than attract them.
According to a fishing guide
given this Sideliner early in the
season by Sportsman Inc. of
Fishersville, the fishing should be
good for the rest of July. One
sure way to find out is to get out
