Because He Flunked The Finger-Nail Test
POOR SHEEDY was in the soup with a turtle named Myrtle.
*T’m in a tortizzy,” he wailed, "what shell I do?’’ "Well,
it’s your messy hare that parts you from all the girls*!’ his
roommate said. "Better get Wildroot Cream-Oil!” Non
alcoholic. Contains soothing Lanolin. Relieves dryness. Re
moves loose, ugly dandruff. Helps you pass the Finger-NaiL
Test. Paul got Wildroot Cream-Oil and now he’s out turtle-
necking all the time! So don’t stick your neck out...get
some terrapin-money and hurry to the nearest drug or toilet
goods counter for a bottle or tube of Wildroot Cream-Oil.
And ask for it on your hare at your favorite barber shop.
Then you’ll really be in the swim.
