HOW BIG A LUBRICATING JOB CAN
A QUART OF OIL DO?
HERE is a record of motor protection and low consump-
tion that conclusively proves how big a lubricating job
a quart of oil can do. Six strictly stock cars, with one fill—
five quarts only—of six different, nationally advertised motor
oils were run to "destruction" at the Indianapolis Speed-
way under AAA Supervision. Under exactly similar condi-
tions the cars were operated until their motors failed. Here
is the result: Oil No. 4 went 1713.2 miles; Oil No. 6 went
1764.4 miles; Oil No. 5 finished 1815.9 miles; Oil No. 1 com-
pleted 2266.8 miles. Oil No. 3 totalled 3318.8 miles. Oil No. 2,
New and Improved Conoco Germ Processed Motor Oil, piled
up the amazing total of 4729 miles! That was 3000 miles
farther than the first oil to go out, and 1400 miles farther
than the last oil to fail.
Such demonstrated superior qualities of greater film strength,
ability to withstand increased heat, resistance to dilution—
such proved performance should guide your future oil pur-
chases. Be safe—look for the Red Triangle Sign.

the finest refrigerator ever created

It has automatic reset defrosting; automatic ice-tray release; the
new Sliding Utility Basket for eggs and small articles; and the Frigid^

refrigerator.
Nor is that all! ... . double Hydrator capacity; interior light-
