Good Roads
and Good Gasoline
"They shall not pass" was a noble resolve
against an unscrupulous oppressor; but it is an
expensive slogan for the nation's highways.
Acting on this belief, the Pennsylvania legis
lature recently passed a measure authorizing
the expenditure of fifty million dollars for
road-building and improvement.
i
Good roads and Atlantic Gasoline there's a
combination that spells maximum efficiency in
truck and passenger-car operation.
For there's terrific energy in every drop of
Atlantic Gasoline. Tremendous power more
power than you need for the hills and more than
you will care to use on the straightaways.
V
Use Atlantic Gasoline in your trucks and
passenger-cars. Take figures off your gasoline
bill and put them on your speedometer where
they show to better, advantage.
