• • • and add to the safety, comfort
and economy of your summer driving
Just as most people need a spring tonic and all rars 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
dabons in servicing and use only quality Standard Oil products. Assure
yourself of top performance from your car this spring and summer by
bringing it in soon for Spring Certified Car-Check.

YOU...
ARE STANDING
r ON A
1 \ NEW FRONTIER
I JkfM ft
\
TAKE A GIANT STEP!
You. and your State of Georgia, are standing on a “new frontier" in both national and
worldwide trade! Seize this moment in time... the dawning era of the sixties... join
hands in a statewide dedication of citizens to provide greater economic gains and benefits
for every section erf our State.
One giant step in this direction will be the Governor’s Conference on Trade and Commerce
in Atlanta, May 21st through 23rd. It represents a unique, all out, effort to stimulate a
rapid expansion of the economy of the State of Georgia. Already, more than fifty spon
soring organizations have volunteered their time and their capabilities for the task ahead.
It is a true indication of progress when the citizens of a state, from the Governor himself to
the local leaders in the smallest towns, take the time to meet with experts in various indus
tries ... to learn from them ... and to have them learn of our great industrial and agricul
tural resources.
You, too, can take a giant step! Ask what you can do for Georgia! Support and encourage
your state and local leaders in government and business in their efforts to tell “The Georgia
Story"—its tremendous growth potential—to the nation and to the world. And when you
travel anywhere ... be a “traveling salesman” for Georgia!
Yes, Citizens of Georgia, you can take a giant step!
