SUCH A SHORT EMI—With Corby you need give
only a oneeninuto to twominute full, rolling boil for
jr—for jelly only a halenainute.to a minute.
ECONOMICAL, TOO!—In this short boil very little
juice can boll away:Von average one ball more jam or
jelly from an equal amount of fruit,
NATURAL TASTE AND COLOUR—Instead of going
off in steam, all the fresh, natural flavour stays right in
the fruit. The colour, too, is never darkened or spoiled.
NO UNCERTAINTY—There's no guesswork wish
Certo. Follow exactly the Certo recipe for the particular
fruit you aro using and you'll have firm, luscious jams
and jellies every tinre.

Watch Your Gasoline
Gauge, Mr. llotorist
(By Harbert W. Jones in The Blae
Bell, August, 134a)
Do you know how to start rue
automobile. Do you: try to beat the

the highway and weave in and oat of

Iiing wileile waiting for your wife or
fiance to finish her shopping? Do
you neglect to check the engine
performance of your ter regularly?
If you do any or all these thins
you're hindering Canada's war effort
—you're just as unpatriotic as the
man who fills to "do his bit" le
other ways! Why? Because, you're
wasting gasoline and thereby mak-
ing it necessary- to utilize more
tankers and to find snore vitally
needed American dollars for the
importation of 'additional quantities
of petroleum product.% Furthermore,
You are 'wasting your own money"
and bringing the day ever nearer
when gasoline for you, and the
drivers t the Dominion's other 1,-
500,000 motor vehicles, will be
rationed.
By observing the six simple rifles'
printed on the next page, It shouil
be easy to get at least one more
mile per gallon, according to W. H.
Herbert, Vehicles Superintendent
'for the Eastern Area, who bee
theme of ,nearly half of elle nine
hundred and fifty motor calls and
trucks in the Bell Telephone fleet
"What does that mean n gallons
and dollars?" we asked, Mr. Herbert.
"Last year," he replied, "Bell Tele-
gYhone motor vehicles travelled 7,-
.262,793 miles. To us, a saving of
one mile per gallon. 4 means about
thirty -flee thousands gallons or
$10,000
"Of course, if every Canadian
truck and motor car driver made , a
real effort to iave gasoline, the ra-
mbles would be astounding. Ac -
reading to the latest Dominlin
Bureau of etattistles figuris, over
663;000,000 gallons of gasolihe were
consumed by meter Vehicles in
Canada in 1959. Let us suPPose

per mile to operate a Bell Telephone
motor vehicle. This figure represents
