The signal oil program? The Whistler. That whistle is your signal for the signal oil program? The Whistler. I am the Whistler.

And I know many things, but 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.

And Signal is the famous Go-Father gasoline. So look for the Signal Circle sign in yellow and black that identifies friendly dealer-owned signal stations from Canada to Mexico. And now the whisper strange story. Wedding gift.
