WONDERFUL DAY*
SUDDEN SHOWERS? Who cares! The laundry
still gets done. With an automatic electric
clothes dryer you can dial sunlike radiant heat
any time you want it.
No more lifting heavy baskets of wet clothes.
No more stooping and stretching at the clothes
line. New leisure time comes automatically!
Electricity adds so much fun to life and so
little expense to the household budget. No
wonder the average home we serve is using
nearly three times as much electricity as it
did 20 years ago.

Never let it be said that a
, good politician took 170,000
votes lightly.
That’s the number of state

timated by the Georgia Motor

its 27th annual convention at
Jekyll Island today (Thurs

evidently accept the figure.
Agriculture Commissioner
Phil Campbell speaks at to
morrow’s luncheon, former
Gov. Marvin Griffin speaks to
morrow night, and Lt. - Gov.
Garland Byrd speaks at a
luncheon Saturday.
Saturday night, at GMTA’s
annual banquet climaxing the
three - day convention, all four
men mentioned as likely candi
dates for lieutenant - governor
will speak — each for 5 min
utes and in alphabetical order, |
or course!
They’re Peter Zack Geer,
executive secretary to Gover
nor Vandiver; State Rep. Cul
ver Kidd of Milledgeville; State
Sen. Carl E. Sanders of Augus
ta; and State Rep. John Shes-

Although not scheduled for

Just as most people need a spring tonic and all cars need a spring
cleaning — your car needs a Spring Certified Car-Check . . . with worn
winter lubricants drained and replaced, the cooling-system flushed and
protected, and all vital points checked and serviced to assure you safer,
care-free summer driving.
Our Certified Spring Car-Check is far more thorough than the old
fashioned “spring changeover.” We follow car-manufacturers’ recommen
dations in servicing and use only quality Standard Oil products. Assure
