THE HOMELITE
XL AUTOMAT!
The Honielite XL Automatic has a new look but it still
delivers the same dependable performance that has
made it• a favourite with professionals. It slices through
10" limbs in five seconds for 30% faster cutting in day-
after-dcry logging. Its larger, bigger gas tank makes for
less down time than ever before. And now the XL Auto-
matic with new automatic oiler and manual over-ride is
selling at a new reduced price. The XL Automatic is
another money-making chain saw from Homelite. And
its back because you asked for it. '

The change to become effect-

graduation diplomas.
Under the new system, a Secon-
