That’s why RPM Gear Lubricant ii compounded to protea modern gears—by carrying heat away, keeping a pressure-resist ing oil film on ’em while making ex tra starts and stops. Keep in gear with RPM. Gear Lubricant! Sneezed a t Catsl Ma Hoskins couldn’t understand why she got a fit pf sneezing every time Harpo, the cat, came in the room. Finally figured she’d have to get rid of Harpo altogether. Then Doc Hollister explained she had an “allergy.” Cat’s fur made her sneeze like strawberries give some folks rash. He gave her an inoculation so she and Harpo could live sneeseleasly together. I guess a lot of us have “aller gies” in the social sense. Some folks just can’t stand movies, or radio comedians. Other folks don’t go for beer. Myself, I enjoy a moderate glass of beer or two with friends . . . but it’s up to them what bev erage they choose. From where I sit, the important thing is not to let our social allergies result in antisocial taboos. Let’s not criticise the fellow who likes beer if we like cider. A little inoculation of toler ance can help us live-and-let-lhre. happily together.
