Its energy is not dissipated by overheating of your motor. Be your own unbiased judge of Koolmotor performance. Drive up to one of the green and black Koolmotor pumps. Fill your tank. Then note the immediately perceptible difference in the operation of your car. After that experience you™ will understand why many motorists are willing to drive miles out of ‘their way, if need be, to reach a Koolmotor filling station. And you will be prompted to follow that wise example. Koolmotor—the original high-test, anti-knock green gas—is a pure petroleum product. It is tinted green for your protection. Kool. motor is a real super-gas and, like any other product of superlative quality, it commands a premium price. For the sake of your own com- fort as well as for the benefit of your engine, beware of imitations. CREW LEVICK COMPANY \ A Subsidiary of CITIES SERVICE COMPANY Avenue, 8. W, Avenues; N.
