The hardest kind of steady going", becomes a perfect

Gasoline. GENERAL, in many respects, is like the good,
old-fashioned gas of long ago. It contains only the needed
elements of the crude petroleum. Refined by GENERAL'S
distinctive system, it combines, in the one super fuel, Mile
age, Quick Starting, Clean Combustion and Maximum
Power. It assures, from any engine, the best performance
of which that engine is capable.
