THE VOICE OF
TEMPERANCE
Why shout, Mr. Drunk? You
don't need to. We can hear you
easily. But after all you cannot
help it. When drunk, your ears
are dulled and you cannot hear •
yourself . or the voices of others
clearly. Naturally you shout or
yell,. just as deaf folks are 'in-
clined' t
n-clined'to do, Some day you may
walk right into the middle of the 1
street in thick traffic, unheeding,
because e\''en the screech ,of brakes
will sound far away. Many thous-
ands of drunks ha e done just that.
Your walk, too, is not natural. It
is a stagger, aimless and uncertain.
.Your legs are out of control --but
that stagger •. is first in your brain.

Nash engines are designed for your every day driving -to give
better performance at the speeds you normally use. Better accelera-
tion and smoother performance in 'the 30 -to -65 mile -an -hour range,
where engines built for high speed alone are "rough" and vibrating.
Peak power is reached at an easy-going 3400 to 3800 revolutions
'per minute, not 'at a frantic 4000 to 4600 R.P.M. That means
longer life, less repairs. Yet Nash engines use only a fraction of
their power at 60 miles -an -hour,
If you want more miles and finer performance from every gallon
of gasoline, we suggest that -before you buy any car at an price-
., you compare the engine features of all popular makes of cars. Get
the new, vital booklet' "WHAT'S THE TRUTH ABOUT CAR
VALUES TODAY?" from us right away. Read it, then come in
and take the wheel of a Nash. We think just a few miles in a''new
