To get out of your motor all the power that was built into it requires a gasoline that is not only pure but uniform.
It is because every gallon of SOCOIVY Motor Gasoline is like every other gallon, no matter wliere you buy it, that SOCONY runs a motor so much more efficiently than the best of un¬ identified gasolines. A carbure¬ tor once adjusted to SOCONY is adjusted for keeps.
You will find that SOCONY gives more miles to the gaUon and more power to the mile. Say So-CO-ny and look for the Red, White and Blue sign.
