Those lubricated with Polarine invariably run smoothly
and quietly. When fine bearing surfaces are "filmed" with
the finest oil, the squeaks, rattles and wear of friction are
practically nil.
Polarine is made by the most up-to-date refining methods
the result of over half a century of experience and re
' search. It is efficient every season of the year. Does not
thicken in autumn end winter, or "wear" thin during a
long trip.
To meet the requirements of all makes of cars and trucks,
Polarine is made in four grades, differing in body but not
in quality. These grades are
Polarine
Polarine Medium Heavy
Polarine Heavy v
Polarine Extra Heavy
For winter use the Polarine and Polarine Medium Heavy
grades are recommended.
For full mileage and power, use Red Crown gasoline the
standard motor fuel. It is just as dependable and uniform
as Polarine. At Red Crown service stations and author
ized dealers everywhere.

Struck by Track of the Collins Oil
Co., While on His Way Home
Saturday Evening.
-1 .
From Monday's Daily.
A very serious accident occurred
on Saturday afternoon shortly after
5:30 near the intersection of Wash
ington avenue and 10th street when
Fred McMaken, the young son of Mr.
and Mrs. J. II. McMaken was ser
iously injured by being struck by
the oil truck, of the Collins Oil Co.,
which was driven by Chester Shep-
herdson.
It seems that Fred had been at the
home of his aunt, Mrs. Guy McMaken
during the afternoon arranging for
the decorations of a Hallowe'en part
and had started home on his pony
about I: and had just drove from
10th street onto the pavement at
Washington avenue and had passed
the intersection and was traveling
wtst when the accident occurred. He
was talking with some children who
were playing near the crossing and
failed to ; ee the approaching truck
and the driver of the truck stated
that he did n.ot tee the lad until al
most on him and too late to avoid
the collision. The truck struck the
hoy and pony, knocking the pony
d.iwn. it is stated by the by-standers
while Fred was hurled several feet in
the air and thrown with great force
on the pavement, .striking his head
and inflicting a very serious injury
at the back of the head. The right
shoulder, arm and leg of the boy was
iaiso haiuy iinn.-ea. i lie uriver oi
!the truck had attempted to turn his
! machine out of the wa- and it was
run tip em to the curning netore it
wa stopped by the driver.
The injured boy was hurried to the
home of his parents and has been
since the accident in a semi-conscious
conditioir. rallying only at
short intervals from the effects of
the injuries. He was taken to the
otiice of a surgeon shortly after the
accident where an x-ray was taken
of the head of the .young man bu
no fractures could be located and it
is thought that the effects
concussion may wear oft" in
time. '
The reports this morning from
the McMaken home were to the ef
fect that Fred had several times
shown signs ef regaining conscious
ness but had later sunk back into
the unconscious condition.

granddaughter three and a half
years of age when she had croup

at once. I have recommended this
remedy to many of my frienels and
(neighbors who have alo used it with
