For example, the majority of western motor ists have long since stopped paying tribute to the superstition that there is something mys teriously “better” about “eastern” motor oils merely because they cost more and are made in the East. Zerolene is First Choice of Western Motorists Zerolene lubricates more motor cars in the Pacific Coast states—high and low priced cars alike—than any other oil m ade. Six out of the seven trophies in the 1924 Yosemite Economy Run were won by Zerolene-lubricated cars. The “anti-western” oil bogie simply doesn’t hold up. Zerolene increases gasoline mileage, reduces upkeep costs and lengthens engine life, in high priced cars and motor trucks alike. Why pay tribute to a superstition? In sist on Zerolene even if it does cost less. Get the Facts! A series of independent and impartial reports showing the experience of large users with Zerolene has been collected in our booklet, "Why Pay Tribute to a Superstition?’.’ Ask any Standard Oil Company representative or Zerolene dealer for a copy.
