BEN WEBSTER'S CAREER — BAD NEWS!

SO THE BIG DIL COMPANIES DON'T WANT ANY MORE

LEASES, EH?

YER THEY'VE LOST INTEREST,

SORTA-

·AS THE PUZZLED BOYS TALKED, GENE WARNER, THE MAN WHO 'BROUGHT IN THE BIG GUSHER, WAS MAKING A MIDNIGHT CALL ON MARTIN MOOCHEM, HEAD OF THE GUSHERUP DIL COMPANY AND..

"It's White Horse, of course—

I could tell it blindfold'

BAD NEWS SPREADS FAST! IT WASN'T LONG BEFORE EVERYONE IN HAPPY VALLEY SEEMED TO HAVE MORE THAN AN INKLING OF WHAT WAS GOING ON!

D'YOU S'POSE THE MAYOR'S PKOCLAMATION STOPPED THE DRILLIN'?

I DON'T THINK THE PROCLAMATION HAD A THING TO DO WITH

IT!

The rare and subtle character of White Horse sets it apart from any other whisky. You can tell it by its exquisite bouquet alone. But it is the perfect blending of fragrance with mell- owness and smoothness which makes White Horse Whisky the equal of a fine liqueur.

The millions of gallons of finest Scotch whisky matured and maturing ensure that the quality of

White Horse never varies.
