During September and October, 1475
critical users of premium -priced gasolines
were asked to test an unidentified, colorless
gasoline which was in reality Nu -Blue
Sunoco with the coloring left out. From
Florida to Canada, these tests were con-
ducted, not by us, but by independent,
unbiased research authorities, and when
the returns were summarized, it was found
that these motorists voted 9 to 1 in favor
of Nu-Bltie Sunoco! 9 out of 10 pro-
claimed it equal or superior to premium -
priced gasolines they had used previously.
To make a fair test, don't dilute
Nu -Blue Sunoco ` with other gasoline.
Let your tank run practically empty. Then
put in Nu -Blue Sunoco. Compare it par-
ticularly with premium -priced gasolines.
We'll rest our case on your findings.

northward with the Polish planes in

As the day wore on and the jour-
ney developed as a series of short
stages followed by lengthy halts, we
warmed to one another in the rail-
way carriage.. Pooling our scanty
food ('perhaps half a pound of choco-
late, six or eight apples, and a bag-
ful of broken biscuits), we ,exchang-
ed gossip, trivial enough in itself yet
memorable and precious because of
the time and the circumstances which
had so strangely thrown us together.
The news of tate British declaration
of war greeted 'us at- the little way-
side station+ at Lapy.
I recall a good deal of liightahea.rt-
ed, high-spirited handshaking, much
mecipd+ocal praise of Polish and Bri-
tish national characterisstics on the
part of the elder of the two Polish
officers and myself, an exchange of
courtesies carried on for the most
part in do+d5fferent German! Anaroh-
itect in civil life, he spoke with grave
enthusiasm of his work in designing
a new hotel at Zakopane. "But an
that is of no account naw."
The American journalist and myself
exchanged the gossip of the profes-
sion and discussed the war prospects.
The Scottish golfer produced a roll
of newspiapens, recent oopies of the
Dundee Courier and Advertiser, and
as the train crawled over the plains
of northern Poland one read the tale
of homely ,doings in a world at once
so familiar and yet ;so tsagicallY re-
mote.
As evening -drew on, the conversa-
tion grew 'gayer, grew more spirited
and noisier. The Lithuanian dancer
related tales of her triumphs• onthe
stages Of Parris] and New York. Some-
one began to sing; presently we were
aili eluging: Polish national songs,
songs dating from 1914-1918 and earl-
ier, "John Brown's Body," "Marching
Through Geor_'+ia."
Perhaps there was an atmosphere
of slight hysteria, perhaps of mere
goad 'felbowsbila We laughed) im-
m'ensel'y at our clumsy lailingual
jokes. Recalled: in transqui'lli,ty, these
home seem the strangest in all these
strange days.
Bialystok we ah least reached about
seven in the evening; 14 hours; to
cover less than 120 miles. Here for
the first time during the day it was
possible to obtain food , . . a hot
chink aid a few .sandwiches. When
the journey is resumed we settle
down for the night in the darkened
train. This night is 'only less weari-
some than its predecessor. We are
too 'crammed for sleet, to come eas-
ily, and turning from side to side
and thrusting out with our legs,, the
noandiescri+pt Bulgarian and myself
kick bane amotthem at intervals
throughout the night. At Grodno,
the elder of the Polish officers leaves
us. We take a warm farewell, ad-
dresses are exchanged.
We reach Vilna at four in tho
morning, a fivshour journey accom-
plished in twenty-three (hours. The
blonde young Polish ld'eutelnant snakes
a point o8 his farewell to the Lithu-
anian dancer. "When the war is ov-
er,"
v-
eu " he ea+ellafi'ms gaily, "we shall give
you Vilna and Koenigsbeng." Then
very carefully and deliberately he
collects this kilt. From This pocket-
bdow he prdduces a thick roll of
notes. "Seven hundred zlotys," he
remarks dislpasrsi'ana,t+aly. "These are
my savings+. I shan't need them

I recall a good deal of liightahea.rt-
ed, high-spirited handshaking, much
mecipd+ocal praise of Polish and Bri-
tish national characterisstics on the
part of the elder of the two Polish
officers and myself, an exchange of
courtesies carried on for the most
part in do+d5fferent German! Anaroh-
itect in civil life, he spoke with grave
enthusiasm of his work in designing
a new hotel at Zakopane. "But an
that is of no account naw."
The American journalist and myself
exchanged the gossip of the profes-
sion and discussed the war prospects.
The Scottish golfer produced a roll
of newspiapens, recent oopies of the
Dundee Courier and Advertiser, and
as the train crawled over the plains
of northern Poland one read the tale
of homely ,doings in a world at once
so familiar and yet ;so tsagicallY re-
mote.
As evening -drew on, the conversa-
tion grew 'gayer, grew more spirited
and noisier. The Lithuanian dancer
related tales of her triumphs• onthe
stages Of Parris] and New York. Some-
one began to sing; presently we were
aili eluging: Polish national songs,
songs dating from 1914-1918 and earl-
ier, "John Brown's Body," "Marching
Through Geor_'+ia."
Perhaps there was an atmosphere
of slight hysteria, perhaps of mere
goad 'felbowsbila We laughed) im-
m'ensel'y at our clumsy lailingual
jokes. Recalled: in transqui'lli,ty, these
home seem the strangest in all these
strange days.
Bialystok we ah least reached about
seven in the evening; 14 hours; to
cover less than 120 miles. Here for
the first time during the day it was
possible to obtain food , . . a hot
chink aid a few .sandwiches. When
the journey is resumed we settle
down for the night in the darkened
train. This night is 'only less weari-
some than its predecessor. We are
too 'crammed for sleet, to come eas-
ily, and turning from side to side
and thrusting out with our legs,, the
noandiescri+pt Bulgarian and myself
kick bane amotthem at intervals
throughout the night. At Grodno,
the elder of the Polish officers leaves
us. We take a warm farewell, ad-
dresses are exchanged.
We reach Vilna at four in tho
morning, a fivshour journey accom-
plished in twenty-three (hours. The
blonde young Polish ld'eutelnant snakes
a point o8 his farewell to the Lithu-
anian dancer. "When the war is ov-
er,"
v-
eu " he ea+ellafi'ms gaily, "we shall give
you Vilna and Koenigsbeng." Then
very carefully and deliberately he
collects this kilt. From This pocket-
bdow he prdduces a thick roll of
notes. "Seven hundred zlotys," he
remarks dislpasrsi'ana,t+aly. "These are
my savings+. I shan't need them
now."
