Is that the Whistler? Sure, didn't you know? No, what? Why is the Whistler on Sunday now at this new time? The Whistler? Sunday? Now? That's right. Every Sunday at this same time. Well, let's get comfortable.
The Whistler is my favorite mystery. Yes, friends, that whistle is your signal for the signal oil program, the Whistler. The mystery program that is unique among all mystery programs. Because you know who's guilty. You see his every move.
You know his complete plans. Even his innermost thought. Yet the final curtain always brings a startling surprise. In the signal oil program, the Whistler. And the Whistler. And I know many things, or I walk by night.
I know many strange tales, hidden in the hearts of men and women who have stepped into the shadow. Yes. I know the nameless terrors of which they dare not speak. Yes friends, it's the Whistler for tops in entertainment, and for tops in gasoline quality, it's signal.
It takes extra quality, you know, to give you extra mileage, and signal is the famous Go Father gasoline. So look for the signal circle sign in yellow and black that identifies friendly independent signal stations from Canada to Mexico.
