Change Oil Every 1,000 Miles Reason Number 6-Power
As you drive along, do you men- tally "push" your car? Or are you rolled along easily, quietly, on all the power your engine was built to 'deliver?
Unless you are lubricating your motorcar with the correct grade of oil, and unless you are changing that oil every 1,000 miles, the chances are that engine labor and wear are stealing at least 25 per cent of your engine power.
If your engine were made of glass, and you could watch it run- ning, you would understand at once why the life and power of your motorcar is dependent on oil.

Even with Mobiloil protection you would see contaminating in- fluences at work. You would see the oil being thinned out by bere zine and water; being contaminated with particles of dirt, steel, and carbon. You would see friction and wear loosening pistons, scoring cylinders, causing excessive engine labor.
Never again would you question the economy and wisdom of using the high quality Mobiloil. You would appreciate, too, why regular crankcase draining is the most important single factor in prolong- ing the life and maintaining the power of your motorcar.

COVENTRY, FACTORIES BUSY.
There are some very bright spota in the English Midlands now where factories are busy and where every- thing is being done to increase production. The Standard Com pany, of Coventry, may be quoted as one of these. The now 9 h.p. car has "caught on" and 1s. becom- ing dally more popular, whilst the well-known 14 h.p. models are re- markable value at their new prices. The situation. here is such that more employees are being taken on every week in order that the de mand for the various types may be met.

Tis no coincidence that both the first pneu- matic tyre and the best pneumatic tyre ever made bear the name Dunlop, The former was fitted to the cycle of its inventor; the latter to the 203.8 miles-per-hour Sunbeam used by Major Segrave. It is significant that through all the years that separate these two tyre building achievements, Dunlop should have maintained their supremacy in the industry. But who more fitted to hold the leadership than the inventor, perfector; and founder of the industry ? By the very nature of things the Dunlop Rubber Company must have the longest and the widest experience of tyre making, and that unrivalled experience you. means the highest standard of value for
