Institute.

In simple terms, a premium motor oil must lx? fortified against harmful changes during use—changes which cause varnish, sludge, and bearing corrosion. When you buy Permalube. you get a motor oil that fully meets these requirements—and then goes out and beats them 10 ways! At today’s high level of motor carvalues, your car needs all the protection it can get. When you, buy premium-price oiU why not get premium-plus quality?

*MRMAIUBI hoi these "premiumplus" qualities: 1. low oil consumption; 2. protection against engine wear; 3. maximum engine cleanliness; 4. minimum ring sticking; 5# minimum combustion-chamber carbon; 6. increased effective filter life; 7. superior break-in ability; Be exceptional cold-engine performance; 9e good control of water sludge; 10. protection

against foaming.
