Gerald T. Latham. The "bar

Monday, offer's a year's sub
scription to the paper, deliv
ered by ' carrier for $7.50, or
when delivered by mail for
$6, representing substantial re
ductions from the monthly pay
ment policy.
The average route delivered
by 43 Mail Tribune carriers is
139 papers per carrier, Latham
states. Persons who subscribe
annually eliminate 11 monthly
collections by the carrier
throughout the year, thus sav
ing themselves the trouble of
being solicited each month, and
also allowing carrier boys more
time for school studies and ac
tivities. This is especially true,
Latham says, in cases where
subscribers are away from
home frequently and four or
five trips are necessary for the
carrier to contact them and
make the collection. Net earn
ings of each carrier are based
on total collections, and all
money paid into the Mail Tri

riers making their .earnings the
same amount as when collected
on a monthly basis.
Subscribers who have been
taking the paper on a monthly

are asked to bring their last re

This is a
distributor
Talk about expert dealing! That
little round distributor-box on the
side of your engine is a shark.
More than 5000
times a minute
it deals the right
amount of electricity
to the right spark
plug at the right
instant. And there's
never a misdeal or
hardly ever.
If it should get out of whack, your
engine would run jerkily or knock.
Or you would hear those loud bangs
down underneath in the muffler.
One of the best ways to keep
your distributor dealing those
sparks without a miss is to have
Shell lubricate your car regularly.
That's the way to protect all the other
important parts of your car, too.
Shellubrication is the safest
guarantee we know that something
hard to replace won't burn out, break,
or just get tired
and quit. (And 5000
cars do quit every
day junked by
neglect and War
time Stop and Go
driving.)
Let a regular check-up by Shell
experts on your spark plugs,
battery, lights and tires be your ounce
of prevention. Keep your automobile
going for the duration.
