IRed Crown" mixes with air 



FOR POWER 



"The gasoline of quality" is 100% 

 POWER. It is refined to vaporize thor- 

 oughly. Every atom of it mixes in the 

 carburetor with from 12 to 16 times its 

 volume of air for POWER. W^ith "Red 

 Crown" you get ready starting — rapid 

 acceleration — greater mileage — a con- 

 tinuous stream of po\ver. 



Run your car on "Red Crown" and noth- 

 ing else, and you won't have to bother 

 with carburetor adjustments. It is uni- 

 form in quality wherever and when- 

 ever you buy it. 



Fill at the Red Crown sign — at Service 

 Stations and garages and at other 

 dealers.
