If it works, it’s true/
But it doesn’t prove out in practice—thia
legend about salt as an aid to binl-catching.
Neither does this superstition that there is
something mysteriously “better” about eastern
lubricants—merely because they cost more.
Every quart of Zerolene you buy proves the
groundlessness of this superstition.
j
Pacific Coast Crude Is Best
Zerolene is a western oil—and a better ofl
even if it does cost less.
As a matter of fact, the best crude petroleum
•o far discovered for the manufacture of a
motor lubricant is obtained from Pacific Coast
wells, and the most advanced refining process is
this Company’s patented high-vacuum process
during the use of which Zerolene is submitted
to 15 positive check? for quality.

Glory of 8o I aeons.
July 18, 1918, found the First divi
sion in front of Soissons. In front of
the First division were trenches lit
erally filled with German machine
guns—plenty of ammunition. Back of
these trenches was banked tier after
tier of artillery. It looked like it would
be Impossible to break the line with
flesh and blood. Our Infantry had to
advance across open wheat fields a
half mile wide, face machine guns that
were arranged by a traversing device
so that the shots would strike a man
about the breast.
But the Infantry went forward close
ly followed by the artillery. It was a
genuine surprise! Prisoners said that
no one but a fool or a mad man would
attempt to take such a formidable line.
At dawn the line was breaking! By
noon the tide of battle was turning!
By night the tide of battle had turned!
Thousands fell killed and wounded!
The remnant gained their objective—
took the trenches that were literally
filled wtth machine guns.
The great decisive battle of the
World war was about 350 miles long
and hinged on Verdun. On that wide
battle front were millions of men; yes,
millions of men with guns in their
hands struggling for the supremacy of
this earth. In certain phases of that
battle more men were killed and
wounded in one hour than during our
entire Civil war. More ammunition

There was a little town called Can-

49.30 tigney on the battle front. I have
49.30 been told that this town nad been
49.30 taken twice by the French and recov
49.30 ered by the Germans. They told the
49.30 First division to take Cantlgney. They
49.30 took Cantlgney. The enemy made a
49.30 counter-attack—the Americans drove
49.30 them back. Another. Another—the
49.30 same result. The enemy kept making
49.30 counter-attacks until in the sixth and
49.30 last counter-attacft to recover Cantlg
49.30 ney, the enemy massed six divisions,
49.30 and threw these six divisions against
49.30 less than one American division—for
49.30
wo had lost many men in these coun
49.30
ter-attacks—and in their last counter-
49.30 sttack less than one division of Amer

49.30 in Europe whether or not an American

53.25 The victory was flashed all along the
53.25 battle front. It gave the morale to the
49.30 Allies. The demand was: Give us
49.30 more American soldiers and we will
15.80 put an end to this cruel war. They
are shock troops—lit to fight any

America's Might Revealed.
49.30
Then Germany realised that Amer
49.30
49.30 ica was In the war. Every resource of
49.30 the Central Powers of Europe was
massed in one mighty avalanche
49.30 known as the Second Battle of the
49.30
Marne. It was now or never I
49.30
In the meantime other divisions—
66.85
same blood and the same kind of men
49.30 —had arrived from America. They
49.30 were holding the line at Chateau
53.25 Thierry and other placee. It seemed
53.25 to be impossible to stop the Germans
49.30 and save Paris from capture. The
49.30
First division was moved to the vicin
15.80

One night, just after wo had found

49.30 arrived. It was: March! Follow your
49.30 guide! Ast no questions! Infantry,

49.30 the deed dark of night; not knowing
49.30 even the direction that we were go

Experienced Drivers Prefer Zerolene
Experienced drivers know this—that Zero
lene lubricates more cars in the Pacific Coast
states than any other oil made—heavy-duty
trucks and high-priced cars alike. Superstitions
don’t work out in practice—Zerolene will in
crease the gasoline mileage of your car, re
duce carbon accumulation in the cylinders and
lengthen your car’s working life.
Why pay tribute to a superstition? Insist on
Zerolene—ask for it by name.

O AN old New Orleans newspaper

on bis last retreat from Richmond
to Appomattox contributed some in

Confederate commander. The army
had halted two miles from Petersburg
on the road to Appomattox, she writes,
and General Lee and his staff were
asked to dinner at the house of an
old friend who lived in Summit. Iced
mint julep was the favorite beverage
of Virginia gentlemen in those days,
and when the staff and guests had as
sembled just before dinner was an
Bounced the glasses wars passed.
General Lee was in conversation
with a young woman. Be offered his
glass i to her after the old style and
then, barely raising it to his lips, set
It down untasted. He took up and
drank Instead a glass of water.
Aa he rode away from Summit
toward Appomattox on bls favorite
horse Traveler he passed the house of
a poor old woman who had sent her
three sons to the army. The youngest,
• she called Doily, was her ape-
got Like every poor southern
