At the summit of the national

the delay was fortu irate.
Just a few days later came word
from Shrevenort. La., telling of a

and her twi children Heece, aged
M, and Hattie Mae, 11, by her father,
who had made the fortune in oil
unknown' to her.
Wills sometimes have tiueer pro
visions, and this one was no excep

who had been a widow for 10 years,
would receive $.15,000 of the estate.
In case of remarriage prior to the
death of her father, however, the
I$:t5,000 would not be forthcoming un

"The Line is Busy"
When the telephone operator tells you V, the line is
' .nay," this fact has been made known to her by an elec
trical sijnml, which in tlie fraction of it second auto
matically indicates that the line called .for is in use.
When "busy" reports me repeated on successive
culls for the same number, it is cenerally due to an
ii.tnoderate use of the called line. The length of a
telephone conversation is obviously beyond the control
of the telephone operator. Have confidence in her

There Is, Also,
A Non-Detonatinj
Qasoline
s Note this important difference in the way gasolines ex
plode. One kind explodes instantaneously detonates.
It depends upon a single crash to pound the piston
down.
Compression is limited by the tendency of such gaso
line to explode prematurely. This means loss of power
and efficiency.
1 It means increased vibration also, thus more wear and
tear. Some explosives would work this way on guns, to
the ruination of the guns.
The Prolonged Thrust
Union Gasoline explodes in a different way like smoke
less jJowder in big guns with a progressive and sustained
explosion non-detonating.
( It thrusts the piston down with a powerful but con
tinuous impulse.
I This permits higher compression, for, as authorities know, com
pression is limited by the tendency of a gasoline to detonate.
So more power and higher efficiency result from Union Non
Detonatinj Gasoline. Smokeless powder is used in big guns be
' because it doesn't detonate and its better power carries the projec
tiles farther.
Snap In The Pickup
. This increased smoother power in motors means more speed and
stronger rush in the pickup.
You find more power on the hills a new "lift" with no "knock
ing" due to gasoline. .
The sustained impulse reduces vibration, which means less wear
and tear.
And the higher, all-'round efficiency means increased fuel
economy.
o Union Non-Detonmtinf Gasoline affects your car in several
desirable and important ways.
Union is always uniform. It-doesn't disintegrate, thus doesn't
deteriorate in storage. All the power that is put into it at the
Union plants is delivered when you want it in your car.
Ask tor touring road maps at any Union Service Station.
