What will he harness?
Thomas Edison bridled electricity. Let
today’s generation turn it to new uses.
The mind of a growing boy is an open door to the
future. Under the free enterprise system he has
the chance to harness his own bright concepts.
On February 11, 1847, Thomas Edison was
born. And so we observe the birth of this bold
dreamer who earned the title, “The Man of
1,000 Inventions.”
His unrelenting work helped him to launch
100 businesses of his own.
This enterprising genius invented the electric
lamp. And built the world’s first electric
utility system to give it a glowing future.
He conceived and developed the phonograph,
motion-picture camera, fluoroscope.
He improved the telegraph and telephone. His
ideas smoothed the way for radio and television.
Thanks to the free enterprise system, which
Edison cherished, today’s children can question,
explore, improve freely. Let us preserve that
system. And give each his chance to snare a
sunbeam or tame a unicorn.
To future Edisons: Mail the coupon, and
start your scientific explorations.

Putting on
Zippers
Do you know how to put in
a zipper?
Here are six easy steps that
you can use as directions.
1. Baste closed, either by
hand or by machine the seam
allowance of the placket.
2. Press the seam open.
Change the pressure foot on
the machine to the zipper foot.
3. With zipper open, place
it face down on the back of
the seam allowance. The edge
of the zipper should be placed
directly against and parallel to
the seam. The bottom stop of
the zipper should be at the
end of the placket opening.
•Stitch on the outside edge of
the sewing guide on zipper
tape. Stitch through tape and
back seam allowance only.
4. Shift the zipper foot to
the left of the needle. Close
zipper and turn it face up.
Press the fabric away from the
z : pper, thus making a narrow
fold in the back seam along
zipper. Edge stitch on fold
beginning at the end of the
tape; sew through the fold and

Value Showdown:
Built-in “guard rails”
There’s a strong steel beam
built into every door of every
1969 Caprice, Impala, Bel Air,
Biscayne, Kingswood Estate
Wagon, Kingswood, Townsman
and Brookwood.
We call it a side guard beam,
and it looks like one of those
guard rails you see along the
freeway.
That’s what it’s there for: To
guard you. To strengthen the
door and put a more solid wall
between you and the outside
world.
Not a glamorous feature.
But you’ll have to admit,
worthwhile.
Computer-selected springs
Maybe you’ll order your new
Chevy equipped to the hilt.
Or maybe you’ll order it with
hardly anything on it.
Either way, you’re going to get
your full measure of our re
nowned ride.
Because we go to the trouble
of programming each car’s equip
ment load into an electronic
computer.
The computer then tells us
exactly which springs to use,
depending on the car’s weight
and the way it’s distributed.
Chevrolet, the only car in its
field with computer-selected
springs.
Fenders inside fenders
We could have skipped this.
(The other cars in our field do.)
But we’re as anxious as you
tape only.
5. Spread the garment flat
with the zipper face down on
the front seam allowance,
forming a pleat at each placket
end.
6. Stitch across the bottom of
the zipper, and up along the
side of the zipper, sewing
through the tape, seam allow
ance and the front of the gar
ment. For accuracy baste be
fore the final stitching. Press
the completed placket and re
move the bastings.

Biggest standard V 8

Ask any car enthusiast, he’ll
tell you:
Chevrolet builds great engines.
Especially VBs.
And this year there are six
great VBs available for the big
Chevrolet. Standard: Our 235-hp
327-cubic-inch Turbo-Fire.
Another thing: We’ve lowered
the price of several of our bigger
VBs along with our automatic
transmissions and power disc
brakes. Which makes it possible
for you to buy a ’69 Chevrolet
for even less money than you
could last year.
