Besides being much cheaper than in most parts of the world, gasoline today costs signifigant- •ly less than ten years ago, Tests show the average car of ten years ago drove 17 miles on a ., gallon of gas of that year against 19.8 currently •- a gain of 16.5 -percent. Fuel costs then averaged 1.25 cents a gallon and 1.69 cents with taxes against 1,01 cents and 1.53 cents with taxes' now. The average skilled worker in this ' ountry can buy almost 10 gallons of gasoline for one hour's wages, In- Britain, only 2.85 gal- lons; in Germany, 2.05 gallons; in- Italy, 1.05 gallons and only .98 gallons in,France. Some' wise advice for Winter driving is -to keep your gas tank filled. When you are low on gas, _-- w -Vapor forms ori -the wairs of your tank. It can cause fuel line freezing and other'troubles if it gets into ,your carburetor. Did you hear about the " oil company executive who boasted to the chorus girl his company had eleven hundred gas stations? "It's just marvelous how lucky you oil people are," she said. "Every time you drill in one of these places you strike gasol- ine." See you 'next Thursday, Advt.
