This year, 1933, has shown us the largest sales increase that we have ever seen. We fiye convinced that these increases are principally due to advertising and the quality ot our products. "We met 1933 with, strong advertising efforts, and we have continued successfully throughout this difficult yfear, not by spending less money in sales efforts, but in spending more money, and spending it mpre effectively. Needless to say, we will continue to advertise aggressively." , Announce Startling Offer The new advertising now appearing," on Skelly's Tailor-Made Aromax Gasoline makes this startling offer to emphasize its important "advantage of quick starting: Skelly offers 10 gallons of any gasoline free, if the purchasel" of 10 gallons or m«re of Skelly Aromax Gasoline can find a gasoline that is quicHer> starting than Skelly Aromax.
