Entertain BoysAt its meeting on Tuesday, the Bala

Cynwyd-Narberth Rotary Cluh gaveits annual boys' Christmas party. Theyoungsters, from less fortunte familiesin the section covered by the club, wereserved a t urkey d inne r and other entertainment was provided, Th e meeting was in charge of Ezra S. Deubler ,a former president of the club.

The best indicat ion of appreciationfor one's effor ts i s usual ly found in arequest for a return engagement. AtEaster time in 1929 Prof. Han'ey I."learns attracted such a gathering atthe old building of t he Met ho di stChurch that people had to be turnedaway.

A GOOD RESOLUTION1 93 1

,BE IT RESOLVED: that I will keep my house evenlyheated, shovel less coal an d ash than heretofore, anddo all these things at less cos t by burning JeddoHighlal1d Coal, the outstanding anthracite since 1858because of its uniform, high quality.

WHEREAS; during pas t years I have fed my furnacemany kinds of coal, andWHEREAS; my home, in consequence , has been atvarious temperatures-not at the even heat so necessary to my hea lth and comfor t , andWHEREAS; this is an unnecessary and costly hardship which may be readi ly remedied,

When cold, frosty days mean a cold engine an d a coldstar t - then you need Texaco-Ethyl, th e "dry", antiknock gasoline. Fo r the gasoline base is Texaco, th eoriginal "dry" gas. Because it vaporizes readily, formsa "dry" gas, it starts with the first few turns of th estarter--no matter how cold the weather. Cold startsare quick starts with Texaco-Ethyl! The anti-knocksmoothness-the added pep and flexibility are th e premiums that Texaco-Ethyl gives you.

"Check Chart" climil1ates guesswork at the greaserack, insuring a complete and scientifically correctlubrication for the entire chassis an d mo tor ofevery American-built passenger car. And the priceis only onc dollar ($1.00).
