Watch Your Favorite TELEVISION SHOW While Having Your Hair Done jjpDlig THE - A. Kids have the goldarnest amount of energy. They play hard . . . learn fast . . . sleep soundly . . . grow like weeds. How do they do it? They've got the advantage of being more recent models, of course newer body styles and all that. But a large part of the answer lies in the fuel they run around on. Milk's their petrol, and it's pretty hard to beat. Loaded with VCP (vitamins, calcium, protein),' milk gives them mileage like you haven't gotten since you were a kid. Funny thing about this fuel it works fine in older models, too. Tried it recently?
