here are the words in the picture which i just copy and paste from the site i found the picture.

"EACH DAY HUMBLE SUPPLIES ENOUGH ENERGY TO MELT 7 MILLION TONS OF GLACIER!

This giant glacier has remained unmelted for centuries. Yet, the petroleum energy Humble supplies- if converted into heat- could melt it at the rate of 80 tons each second! To meet the nation's growing needs for energy, Humble has applied science to nature's resources to become America's Leading Energy Company. Working wonders with oil through research, Humble provides energy in many forms- to help heat our homes, power our transportation, and to furnish industry with a great variety of versatile chemicals. Stop at a Humble station for new Enco Extra gasoline, and see why the "Happy Motoring" sign is the World's First Choice!"

oh yeah. this advertisement is around 1960s.
time sure change a lot of stuff.
back in those days, i think everyone would have thought that its a super awesome stuff and use more to melt the glacier.
now, everyone will most likely trying their best to make that oil company gone bankrupt?? or just sue them or assassinate the everyone who are related to the company and paste the polar bear expression below to their face.
