Tee many drivers "just leave the car in to have the transmission and differential greased." sounds simple enough--but very few of them have any idea what quality or quantity of grease they actually get. They go back to the station--pay the bill--and drive away in complete ignorance of what has happened. That is buying "blindfolded." "WHIZ" dealers are equipped with the "WHIZ" METERED GREASE Hispéasing | Shia eter gt- tached to the grease dispenser which shows y how much grease has actually been put into the transmission and differential. And of course, the fact that it is "WHIZ" GEAR GREASE assures you of getting the best quality of grease. Your dealer sells and recommends "WHIZ" GEAR GREASE. Drop in to-morrow and have him flush out the old Winter grease and replace it with "WHIZ" summer grease.

The principal orator wus Stanley Baldwin, prime minister. Mrs. Baldwin was also present. .. The program included a pageant illustrating the rise and progress of the army. On the platform | were Gen, Edward J. Higgins, pres- ent commander, and Catherine Booth, granddaughter of the foun- der. Messages were received from all parts of the world. In his address which was couch- ed in eloquent language, Mr, Bald- win said: "Since you think it right that someone outside your organiza- tion should speak about your founder then it ise minently fitting that those words should come from the Prime Minister of this king- dom. Just as no history of the 18th century would be complete if it failed to deal with the effects of the life of Wesley, so no history of the 19th century would becom- plete if it omitted reference to the influence of William Booth on Eng- and."
