Picture Star Learns That Winter Motor
Oil Flows Either at Freezing or Boiling
Few persona roallie that win

llbor freotlug or bolllnf, and
lubricate efficiently under both
temperature extremes. Tin ther
mometer may ba at frecslng, or
even below xero, when tho car
la started. Wlihln 10 mlnuina

bolllni. It It Important to use
an oil that will ondure both klnda

that apeclally-crnated winter oil
will do In work perfectly either

lubricant Immersed In boiling
water. The demonatratton waa
used by II. W. Taylor, luhrlcanta
department manager of Oenernl
Petroleum, to prove thlf winter
oil will flow freely, and lubri
cate effectively, despite aevere
lemperatur extremes.
"Perfection of thla oil, right
fully called arctic." aald Taylor,
"la a real achievement of Moblloll
enilneera. It anahlea ear ownera
to play aale against taat wear of
vital motor pnrla."

Tbeae are the roaaona why Mile

BIG PROBLEM
A new problem loo ma big for
motorlite today whenever a
hypold, roar-end gear la lubri
cated. More than 70 per cent of
Ihe new cara are oqulpped with
thla type gear, which requires that
lubrication muat be "handled with
kid glovea" ao to apeak. Mlatakea
would ba coatly.
"Decauae of the extremely
heavy pressures exerted on hypold
geara," dcclnres W. F. Carper, of
General Petroleum, "the lubrl
canta for them muat he apeclully
compounded to Insure adequate
ruahlonlng and aavn tbo geara
from undue wear or breakage.
"The Important point ia that
different klnda of hypold gear
luhrlcanta cannot be mixed with
safety. Mixing will bring about
chemical reaction, causing tba
greaaea to turn to taffy. Then they
ceaae to (unction. Having bad one
brand of greaaa Installed, do not
allow an operator to mix It with
another."
Warning of danger days ahead,
due to approaching winter, la be
ing broadcast to motoriata.
Hiich la the declaration of F.
W. Wobater, distributor of Gen
eral Petroleum, who says "there
ahould be no delay In having cara
Wlnterproof Inapected. It'a better
to be a week early than a day
lata."
FREE INSPECTIONS
How may motorists ba aaaured
their cara will work easily, and
not break down, thla winter?
Thla la the thought that led to
creation of wlnterprooflng, Mobll
gaa atatlon men declare. Listed In

FAIRBANKS. Alaska, Nov. IT
(AP) John Vogtor'a watch
charm today gave the U. S. bio

fowl migrations.
John Vogtor la a mining man at
Innoko (Shageluk) northeaat of
Anvlk on the lower Yukon.-Hla
watch charm waa the leg band of
a hnld-pate duck he ahot In the

The heat, grime and dust of hard Summer driving have done things to your
car.. .and now comes Winter, with its low temperatures and severe weather
Conditions that Impose new and even more serious demands.
Your safety the proper operation of your car and protection of the in
vestment you have in it necessitate that it be in proper condition to with
stand the hardships of Winter driving.
The change from Summer grades to correct Winter grades of fuel and
lubricants is important but that alone isn't enough. General's 12-Point
Winter-proof Service includes critical inspection of the vital points of wear.
This is a precautionary measure of which every motorist should take advan
tage. And it's entirely free except, of course, for needed materials you order-
Why not have your car Winter-proofed now?
Remember it's better to be safe than sorry. Drive
in today where you see the Flying Red Horse. '
