She told the other
file clerks about it-
i
She had visited the. National Business Show and she
had seen the Library Bureau exhibit. It was a revelation.
For the first time she realized the opportunities in filing
its ever-growing importance in business its right to be
called a profession.
So she told the other file clerks about the Library Bureau
exhibit describing what she had learned dwelling
particularly on the speed, accuracy and simplicity of the
L. B. Automatic index.
That ,day the four girls visited the Library Bureau
salesrooms not to buy but to look around to investi
gate all that is new and good in card and filing systems.
We invite everybody in Philadelphia to do the same
thing. Library Bureau has been the pioneer and leader
in all that concerns card and filing systems for more thac
44 years.
Library Bureau representatives know filing from A to
Z. They are always glad to answer your questions ---whether
you are interested in a few simple cards or a
complete filing system.

YOUR Automobile represents an investment. The return on
this investment of $500 to $5000 depends absolutely upon
the care you give your car.
Care is largely a question of lubrication. 75 per cent of all auto
mobile troubles are traceable to improper lubrication.
Do you simply ask for "oil," or worse yet, do you guess the proper
type for your car? Consult a reliable authority, or write us for
the Sunoco Lubrication Guide.
LUBRICATION is the life of your car
Sunoco Motor Oil is the highest quality motor oil possible to manu
facture. It is neither a paraffin base nor a compounded oil. It is
made in six types to provide accurate and efficient lubrication for
every car.
Sunoco k a wholly distilled product the guarantee of absolute
uniformity. As it is not a compounded oil, it eliminates carbon
deposit. There are no light oils to burn off, leave a sticky mass of
tar to collect road dust and form carbon deposit. Ask your dealer
for SUNOCO.
