One of our reliable, experi- enced drivers, will pick you up at your door and deliver vou quickly and safely to your destination at a charge less than a box of cold pills. YELLOW CAB affords the maxi- mum of convenience and comfort when the weather is at its worst. It is an ordeal to get your car started these cold mornings. Wouldn't it be cheaper in the long run to leave your private car in the garage and use a YELLOW CAB? Three months of winter driving ale most certainly means a new paint job, an expense of anywhere from $50 to $150. A frozen radiator is a constant source of danger.
