j its the High Spots

Your modern motor needs an oil
that really means business +. an
oil with film tough enough to re-
sist tearing by surface projections
-. an oil that actually hits those
high spots on the journal and bear
ing surfaces, and polishes them
down to mirror smoothness.
That's the way to reduce fric-

we suggest Phillips Sc Motor Oil. It
sure lives up to the Phillips repu-

a costlier 1907 parafin base crude.
So you save two-ways with

heart and kidney ailment.
Expecting to sail for France, where
he maintained foreign headquarters

turn to duty as soon as possible.
At the War Department, where a
permanent Office is held in readiness

packed, car ordered and the auto
mobile quietly rolled away from the
grounds which had been home to the
