The train was pulling
out when a young man
jumped on. As he stood
panting, an elderly party
said scornfully: “Y o u
young fellows don’t keep
yourselves in condition.
When I was your age I
could carry a cup of
coffee in one hand, run
halt a mile and catch
the 8:15 and still be
fresh as a daisy.”
‘‘You don’t understand, pop,” said the young man.
I missed this train at the last station.”
When you require a .grease job or a complete
motor tune-up, bring it to the boys who completely
understand how to give you; the best in automobile
service.
