Misses Effie Pettibone and Hazel ALL NEXT WEEK mi Karl Simpson's Comedians Starting Monday, June 20 In a recent test to show the effect of careful driving on gasoline consumption a Chevrolet "Four-Ninety" touring car established the record rate of 2t miles to the gallon. The conditions of this test will interest every automobile owner. For economy is the greatest factor in motor transportation. And it means a great deal to know that the epense of operation is entirely within the driver's control. The rules forbade any change other than carburetor adjustments and a careful inspection was made at the start to make certain that each car was in standard condition.

The route, 1 5 miles long, was carefully chosen to include as nearly as possible the average conditions of daily travel, hills, city traffic and country roads. There was no limit. And each driver was accompanied by a nimpartial observer. George Clawson drove a new car up from Kansas City, over all kinds of roads, and averaged 30 miles to the gallon. Can you buy a car that will beat this record.
