A lot of wives complain about
housework, but not my Susie. She
uses her head instead of her muscles.
For example, some women spend a
whole day just scrubbing and wax
ing wood floors. My Susie cleans
and waxes them in one easy opera
tion ith Bruce Cleaning Wax. It
takes only half the time and a lot
less work. Yet our beautiful wood
floors are the envy of her friends.
My hat's off to Susie and her Bruce

JAnd what you're missing is more than
"maybe," it's for sureii you haven't yet
visited your Dodge truck dealer.
Do you want to miss a rock-bottom price?
Perhaps you haven't realized that Dodge
trucks actually cost less than you'd pay for
corresponding models of most other makes.
Do you want to miss power so high it
leads the field? Consider this: with engines of
169 to 175 horsepower, Dodge overpowers every
other leading make of truck in the low- and
medium-tonnage fields.
