PROCESSED
Tomorrow morning, as you step hopefully on the
starter, will there be a s-l-o-w disappointing groan,
as it tugs at your unwilling motor? . . . Or, will there
come a swift responsive roar?
If you're having trouble starting, you're probably
using an old-type oil that congeals at temperatures well above
freezing. You should change to Conoco Germ -Processed.
But that's not all! To ward off the wear that these prolonged
Starting periods bring, you want an oil which provides instant lub
rication at the first reluctant revolution of a cold motor . . . And there's
just one oil which can do that! Because there is just one lubricant
which penetrates metal surfaces and never drains away in idle periods.
Conoco Germ-Processed Motor Oil is that one lubricant. Change
to this motor oil with twin advantages for winter use ... 35 cents
per quart for all grades at the sign of the Conoco Red Triangle.

whipping post, and employment of
