I-

GULF'S PLEDGE to the motoring public
We at Gulf make this promise to America's motorists. We will not
permit a single competitor-no, not a single one-to offer a gasoline
superior to our own superb No-Nox.
It is our sincere belief that No-Nox is the finest gasoline on the
market today, and no matter what others do or say we will keep it the
finest-in power, in performance, in engine protection.
This is not a boast. not a claim. It is a pledge
to y ou. the motoring public-a pledge backed
Sb the resources-and the integrity-of the Gulf
G j I fk 1 Oil Corporation.

S'i 4


But octane alone is not enough. Only a gaso-
line that burns clean can make its full octane
power really work for you mile after mile.
That's why new Gulf NO-NOX is super-refined
to burn clean and make this power last
thousands of miles longer!
This lamp test above shows what a difference
Gulf super-refining makes. Gulf refines out
the "dirty-burning tail-end" of gasoline, at
the refinery, to bring you new Gulf NO-NOX.
Just see how clean new NO-NOX burns.
Fill up with new Super-Refined Gulf NO-
NOX and feel the difference:
* More complete engine protection than
with so-called "miracle-additive" gasolines.
* Extra gas mileage in the short-trip, stop-
and-go driving motorists do most.
* Stall-proof smoothness instant starts
... fast, fuel-saving warm-up.
* No knock, no pre-ignition-even in to-
day's high-compression engines.

SBulwark


of Freedom


Every man believes
in something! He has
a creed -a "belief."
He may find its ex-
pression in "isms,"
political theories, or
what not. He seeks
an answer to the
question, "What is
Life's Purpose?"
Christianity gives
that answer. It has stood for 2,000 years when
all other "isms" and beliefs have fallen by the
wayside.
Episcopalians, too, have a creed. They follow
the belief of the Ancient Church which is based
on the Apostles' and Nicene Creeds. Both start,
"I believe in God." The Episcopal Church is a
"believing" church -believing in God the Fa-
ther, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit, one
God believing that Jesus Christ came to earth
to save man from himself, and to establish a
divine society in which all men are brothers.
This belief is the militant spirit of Cnristian-
ity which can defeat Communism and can de-
feat any other "ism" which threatens our God-
given freedom, and is the answer to man's eter-
nal question, "What is life's purpose?"
Won't you join us today in reaffirming our
belief in God in the Episcopal Church near you?
