a person think of winter again.

GET CHANGED TO OIL-PLATIN
Spring’s here, but let’s not put any loud
“new suits” on all the old oil bogeymen.
After all, botherless engine lubrication
gets down to a few calm facts that are facts.
No. 1... You want to be certain that
your engine doesn’t grind every time you
start, while oil is “coming up” from below.
Oil-Plating, produced only by Conoco
Germ Processed oil, can never lose time
“coming up,” because it’s already there!
For the patented Germ Process creates
such a powerful attraction between oil
and metal that the inside of your engine
becomes Oil-Plated. And you know that
platings aren’t runny, but stay up in place.
That’s the way Oil-Plating will stay up to
ward off all the worst starting wear you
ever heard of.
And No. 2 . . . Whether you’ve got a
“good old car” or the latest thing, you
want to make any driving schedule with-
out being nervous about the heat indicator
and the oil level. You can easily keep them
where they belong. This is exactly why:
the Germ Process creates a far stronger
normal type of oil film and then checks
friction still further by means of modern
Oil-Plating—entirely extra... exclusive to
Conoco Germ Processed oil. Costs no
more when you change; costs you less all
season. Continental Oil Company
