to see which class president was
the Ugly Man. Voting was held by

NOTES
FROM
NElL
COUNT ON US
Some of our customers
really think that all we
)rharmacists do is remove pills
om one bottle and count
them into another. It wouldn't
take five years of college to
learn how to do that.
We have to know all there
is to know about pills-- many
pills -- in fact, thousands of
different kinds. We must
remember the actions, uses,
dosage, proper storage, and
dozens of other facts about
every pill we dispense.
You go to the best doctor
-- no reason why you shouldn't
have the best medicine -- and
the best medicine §drtainly
tnvolves more than counting.

AMERICAN FAMILIES CHOOSE
NATURAL GAS FOR HEATING
When we say" "Use electricity for the things it
does best - and heating is not one of them," our
logic is backed by the fact that more American
households are heated with gas than are heated
by all other forms of energy combined! We
couldn't ask for a stronger testimonial.
Flameless energy can't match the speed of the in-
tense blue flame of natural gas. There's no wait-
ing when you turn your gas heat thermostat up
-or turn it down. Action is instant. But the same
exercise with flameless heat is a long-drawn-out
process. While you wait for an electric tempera-
ture to come up-or go down-to the desired level,
you're paying.., sometimes 'til it hurts.
There are many wonderful uses for electricity.
Home heating is not one of them, take it from
33,000,000 American households.
It's the FLAME That Counts!
