Here's a car that knows how to get the most out of a gallon. And it's the only car in its field to bring you hydraulic valve lifters in all popular engines--6 and V8. This means smoother, quieter performance for you. There are many other advances just as fundamental as the efficiency of Chevrolet's engines and the dependability of its new brakes (with more lining area than any other low-priced car).

Main McHenry Phone 123-J A stranger walked into Pudge Barton's store the other day wearing one of those "Chesterfield" coats. When the boys saw the fancy velvet collar, they broke out laughing. The stranger seemed to ignore them and went on about his business. He even pretended he didn't hear Windy's remark about the "big city" coat. Then, on leaving, he walked over to Windy. "I gather you find my coat peculiar," he said. "Well, where I cOme from we're so peculiar we even extend a hand to strangers." With that, he shook Windy's hand. From where I sit, the twist on the old adage is true: "clothes don't make the man." We ought to judge a man for what he is. That's tolerance, something we ought to practice every day. For example, yon like coffee... I like a glass of beer. The.*; doesn't make either of us ' different" or anything to laugh at.
