San Francisco is considering the erection of a sky- scraper garage for all-day parking, to relieve the congestion of down- town streets, ‘ Most cities which have experl- mented with the restricted parking idea have found it more or less of a failure. A town which has ten thou- sand automobiles parked in its busi. ness district, enacts a “one-hour” parking law. If the law is*obserbed, parking law.

HolidayMotorist emands Conoco @ et SZ "ES was a golf game that really decided me to never use any- thing but Conoco. I knew, long’ before ‘that, that there is no better gasoline made than Conoco but somehow I let a new garage man put several gallons of some ‘unknown gasoline’ in my tank'the night before, Of course, I had trouble the next morning—couldn’t get started, and couldn’t get up any speed and stalled on the first hill! When I did get to the club, peevish and out-of-sorts, the other fellows were at the first tee, all dressed and yelling for me to hurry. “It is not surprising that I was completely off my game is it? I will never forget what a duffer I was that day but when I think of the valuable lesson I learned about gasoline and all the grief I have escaped since by demanding Conoco every time, I am glad it happened. We do a lot of mountain driv- ing and I like to hunt,and fish and I find it is always easy to getit and Iam sure that sticking to Conocohashelped us avoida number of things which would have spoiled many pleasant trips.’* ‘There is more power in Conoco than there can possibly be in any lighter gasoline and Conoco is balanced—so proportioned that the average motor can utilize Sven paren of its power.
