That's one bargain no doctor zan afford. After all, your car comes pretty close to being the most important equipment a medical man has to have. *Sick patients want the doctor guick—a crippled machine is no excuse. Also, you know something about diet. You don’t expect human beings to thrive on second-grade food—same way with an automobile. You deal with reputable drug houses as a matter of course, and you safeguard your transportation by insisting on good oil and gas. It’s easy to pull up at the pump that has a reputation behind it—easy, and a lot safer. Many states now require motorists to pass eyesight tests before granting driving licenses. Anybody with half an eye can see that the Socony pump gets most of the traffic —and keeps it moving. TOURING THIS SUMMER?
