It is the first motor fuel that combines the efficiency of High Octanes,, Distillation Curves, High Gravity, Boiling Points, etc., to' give balanced multi-power. A year of gruelling tests in race cars was de voted to developing this new gasoline. New refining practices had to be devised to produce it. More crude ' oil is required from which to refine a gaUon of RED LION than to make a gallon of ordinary gaso line. Distillates and low grade fractions are eliminated. This is the costly way to refine gasoline, but other refiners will imitate Gilmore again, sooner or later. "and Ladies, you'll enjoy the absence of offensive gasoline odors when you drive with this new gasoline. Fill up with RED LION, at Independent dealers. Yom'U enjoy a new thrill in driving.
