A Tip From Dad
You know I got a tip from "Dad" years
ago. He said "A man can't pay $15.00 per
ton for Cotton Seed, sell them at $15.00
and get by."
Neither can I pay 27c for gasoliner give
my customers full measure and quality
then sell it for 27c and get by.
I buy my gasoline from G. J. Crosslancl
& Co., they guarantee me, first, grade,
straight run gas (not blended with cas-
ing Jiead). My visible pump guarantees
you full measure and clean, white gaso-
line.
Now what? Service. Say, why ruin
your best "Sunday-go-to-meetin" clothes
getting water and air? "Why, man, that
is where I shine," Just ask my trade, or
get your next Fill at
Penn's Drive in Filling Station
