HIGH COMPRESSION
CARS
chSOLINE
4/
As your new car piles up mileage, your high
compression engine increases in compression.
Even inside the first 10,000 miles, tests show,
this increase can cause knocking and engine
sluggishness. And this can happen to any out
on the market today. ,
The cause of this is carbon—which cakes inside
today’s compact combustion chambers, reducing their
size. You can’t avoid such carbon deposits completely,
no matter what kind of gasoline or oil you use.
Shell scientists have developed a special type
of gasoline—Shell Premiumfilhuf will auto-
matically compensate for these carbon-created
higher and higher compressions.
This super motor fuel will produce maximum knock-
frec power in the highest compressions your engine
can develop. Because Shell Premium is a special blend
of clean-burning gasoline fractions . . a patented,
scientifically prepared anti-knock compound . . . and
powerful alkylate (similar to that used in loo-octane
aviation fuels).
Whether your car is new or old, Shell Premium
will give you greater power when you want it...
new handling ease in traffic . . . cooler running. And
to top all this, encellent mileage.
Shell Premium costs more than “regular.” But
if you drive the average amount, Shell Premium will
cost you only about $1 a month extra. We recom-
mend Shell Premium for the extra miles of new-ca
performance it can give you. On sale at Shell Dealers
and Shell Stations.

The “Pageant of the Hills," as
all in the Mother Lode have come

expertly produced with a cast of
more than 300 local citizens tak-
ing part. This year‘s pageantry
will go deeply into the life of
Sutter, telling of his birth in
Switzerland in 1803, his life in
the Hawaiian Islands, his visit to
Alaska, his history making activ-
ities in the early days of Cali-
fornia and the discovery of gold.
The pageant will no presented
on Friday night, August 8 and
Saturday night, August 9, at the

Gold-Lined Gasoline
But the price of gas in Can-3

Golden we paid 36 cents a gallon
for standard grade gas; Ethyl.
was billed at 38 cents. In Cal»?
gary we got it “cheap” at 301/13:
cents. Of course the Imperial.
gallon is a fifth larger than our:
American gallon, and a ten per
cent rate of exchange on money‘
should be considered, too, but even
so that makes gasoline pretty;
expensive across the border and
makes it evident why so many
Canadians ride bicycles. Gas:
cannot be. sold on Sundays nor be- ‘
tween the. hours of 7 p. m. to 7i
a. m, either. i
The price of cars, too, is steep
up there. Our car, a few dollars
less than $1000 down here, costs
over $1300 up there. So I don’t
blame Canadians for riding bikes.
A great many of them do, we.
found.
Evidence of the. intense interest.
Canada is taking in the war is;
on every hand. About every third 2

raised over $44,000 for victory

through.

So much for Canada, with the
passing remark that Lake LouiSe
is the prettiest spot these eyes
have yet rested upon. I can’t
tell you what color the water of
Lake Louise is a slate—gray
bluish-green perhaps would come
as close as anything. The water
is nearly opaque. We took a.

I wish I could thank a family

met at the camp grounds at
Lake Louise for persuading us to
change our original plans and go
through Glacier National Park

place worth going many miles out
