As spring comes on and tho roads
Improve, tho automobile owner will
get out bis car. Before ha tunes It
up for tlw first long Sunday tour with
his family, It would bo well at this
tlmo for him to relied that every
gallon of gaaollno ho uses will mean
that a gallon of gaaollno cannot be
used for a motor truck hauling provis
ions nnd munitions to tho front for
tho fighting men In France
It may muml trivial to say this,
but when ono pauses to reflect that
there nro rnoro than 3,000,000 plcas

each can burn from three to six
gallons of the precious fluid every
Sunday that an outing la taken In

an outing mmm that tho already

JUST A WORD IN YOUR EAR
Housewife of St. Johns
OOOOOOOODOOOOOOOOOO
Probably you have already heard of the GREATER PORTLAND ASSOCIATION.
You may have read some of its advertising, or have noticed the sign in a shop window.
Haven't you wondered a bit as to its purpose, felt a little mild curiosity as to what
its name meant? Why the "Greater Portland?"
If so, you will be glad to learn all about the Association, what a big organization it
is, what it means to you personally, how it affects your buying, and what supporting it
may mean to your neighborhood.
Next Monday two well informed women representatives of the Association will be
gin house to house work in your community, and we bespeak for them courteous, fair
hearing. They have nothing to sell, and will not spend much time at any one home, but
they will tell the housewives why the Greater Portland Association was founded, whom
it represents, and what its purposes are. As intelligent women you want to be inform
ed on civic affairs it's part of your education in these modern days.
Member
Greater
Portland
Let this Sign be
Your Protection
If we have any members
who arc unreliable, we want
F&lroniZiJ 11 Specialty Store to know it, nnd be rid of them
at once.
We ask also the co-operation of the mer
chants of St. Johns. You are very vitally
interested in this movement, and can fur
ther it greatly by "boosting" for it, and
particularly during the weeks when our rep
resentatives are visiting your customers.
