The first of the month usually
does for many motorists, if not
for you!
Do you ever think of the cause?
Isn't it very likely that many of
them are due to inefficient lub
rication? You're dealing with something
the very life of which is depend
ent on lubrication. Isn't it wiser,
more economical to change to
Golden Texaco NOW and be
safe?

to jmtae women drivers in pen-
ieral by the nctlons of the few that
j KO to extremes In the light of the
j generally excellent record of safe
ty that women have made. Never
itheles.s we must recognize facts nn
j they nre. Naturally women ex
I pert others t J give way to them ns
a matter of gallantry, an id we
'would never wish to suggest that
the Indies receive less than their
j rightful due. Of course women
must have their way it has nl
J ways been so but we should make
(.sure beforehand that it la the right
way.
"So one should question, either,
woman's prerogative her rijiht to
change her mind. It would be a
wonderful tiling, though, if a wo
man driver would always indicate
to other drivers that she is chang
ing her mind before she puts the
change into effect. The whole
world would lie the happier for it.
1 "Women, as a rule, do much Jess
driving than men, and frequently
little of that driving is in heavy
j traffic. As a result, when they get
into a Jam, they are more likely,
'through lack of experience, to be
jcome timid or excited, with disas
trous results. The obvious cure is
greater familiarity with conditions
(that are met while driving.
"Women are leaders in many
other matters of public- and family
j welfare, and the influence they can
jexert to check the alarming in
crease in automobile accidents can
be tremendous. First of all they
imust perfect their own driving
jubllily and practice. Then through
organization in women's drivers
schools they can become a distinct
force for safety throughout the
country.'

A noticeably large proportion of:
all Chrysler cars sold are going to!
feminine drivers, says .T. W. Fra.er, j
Chrysler and Plymouth sales man-j
ager. They are bought, he says,
hi line wltli the growing trend of
having a second car in the garage
for the women members of the I
'household. Hp ascribes a consid-1
jerable share of the great popular-1
Ity of the lower-priced Chryslers j
jand the Plymouth -to this second
tear habit, pointing out that road
Jsters, coupes nnd two-door sedans'
in these models are especially pop
ular with women.
"St vie transcends every other
in Its appe.'it to the feminine buy
er." M r. Kraaer declares. "The
lfiner stylo in the new Chryslers and
ine l'lyniouin nas maue mem mii-
standing favorites with women. The
new and bright Chrysler and Yly
month colorings also have un
doubtedly played a conspicuous
part in feminine selection. Bo, of
course, have their dashing lines,
high quality upholstery, attractive
interior fittings, the snap and zest
of their typically Chrysler perform
ance, and their unusual ease of
handling.
"Women are becoming more mo
torwise ail the time. They know
style when they see It, and the zest
of performance is coming to mean
equally ns much to them as to men.
"The combination of power,
speed, traffic flexibility and hand
ling case, combined with the still
greater style and luxury of appoint
ments offered in the new Chrysler
and Plymouth cars, is unquestion
ably n leading factor in the in
creased feminine demand evident
in Chrysler sales today."
CATERPILLAR" GETS THE
TOUGH JOBS!
T
HE tougher the soil and the
harder the going, the more quickly "Caterpillar" quality proves
itself. Under such conditions, extra power and added traction he
come so obviously necessary that tough jobs are "Caterpillar"
jobs.
American farmers have proved the competence of the "Cater
pillar" by testing it under severest conditions. Today tractors
are working in the black belt of Alabama, in the gumbo soil of
Missouri, in the red clay of Georgia, the adobe of California, and
the prairie sod of South Dakota. Their success where soils are
refractory and the traction treacherous, is an enduring endorse
ment of efficiency in the. average field and typical orchard.
