Endicott p.ar tree might be near,

This monarch of its kind, recogniz
ed by the United States Department ,
of Agriculture as the oldest planted
fruit tr:e in America, is expected to
bear its usual yearly crop of one to
two bushels. Its fruit is small and
sweet.
President Cooiidge, who visited
the tree while he was governor of
Massachusetts, pronounced it the
most remarkable living landmark in
N.w England. The tree was planted
by one of his early predecessors,
Governor John Endicott, in 1961.
General Washington, Abraham Lin-
clon and Webster visited the tree
of its fruit.

SNOWFALL FOLLOWS A

ovr in July is a record just es
tablished at Montreal. After two days
::fling heat the city was visited
with a mild snowfall. It lusted only
u few minutes.
A new low temperature mark for
July was established at Buffalo, N.
Y., when the mercury fell to 46.
More than $1,500,000,000 was
.spent in the United States for road'
building and maintenance during the
fiscal year ending June 00, 1925,
says a summary of a study just i
pitted by the National Industrial
Conference Board.
Whereas, less than twenty yom
ago expenditures for road building
were still a negligible item in gov

the country’* present annual
bill amounts to mor^ than one-sixth
of the entire public budget, and

)K into the crystal-clear bowl
of the next Pan-Am pump you
pass. Your own eyes will tell you
that here is a gasoline free from
dirtWnd sediment! And, even more
important, the careful Pan-Am re
fining process removes impurities
you cannot see: corrosives and car
bon-forming elements.
This clean gasoline will keep your
motor cleaner, because it forms
less carbon. It will also give you a
new thrill when you step on the
accelerator, for the quick spurt or
the long pull. And you'll find that
your car goes more miles on every
gallon, with Pan-Am in the tank.
. •. a TOUGHER OIL
It will also pay you to insist on
the improved Pan-Am motor oil.
This tougher oil retains its body
in spiteof engine heat and friction.
Thus it gives 100% lubrication
value; effective protection for your
motor. And it has the endurance
to keep on the job mile after mile;
longafter ordinary oils are thinned
to the danger point.
Both of these better motor prod*
ucts are sold by Pan-Am dealer*
everywhere. Look foe the familiar
cream-colored Pan-Am pump. If
