That’s the explanation of why so much satisfaction is packed into the pause that refreshes with ice-cold Coca-Cola. Fifty seven years of knowing how to blend Nature’s choicest ingredients ex plain the different kind of refresh ment you get in Coca-Cola. A finished art in its making creates its original taste. You’ve never found this delicious taste in anything else except in Coca-Cola itself. The same skill guarantees the unique quality you :: expect in every drop of this best-liked f |» soft drink on Earth. tlaBsl Note how Coca-Cola goes beyond mere- ra ly quenching your thirst to leave a de- S Jf lightful after-sense of refreshment. Here’s energy that you can really feel. Be sure /• ^ you get the real thing. There’s no com parison. Call for ice-cold Coca-Cola by f» its full name or by its familiar abbre- j||8>j viation—Coke. The best is always the j|| ^ better buy. t Outdoor action calls for a refreshing indoor reaction. It calls for ice-cold Coca-Cola. It’s only a little thing, but the big things it does to please people make it the best-liked soft drink on Earth. Wartime limits the supply of Coca-Cola. Those times when you cannot get it, remembers Coke, being first choice, sells out first. Ask for it each time. No matter how short the supply, the quality of Coca-Cola carries on.
