Indiana, victorious, over Ohio uni- versity of Athens, O., by the margin of a point after touchdown last Sat- urday, will be the opening opponent of Notre Dame's 1931' offering, and the Hoosiers are likely to take a sound walloping.

But how many know that this is the same, salve-like substance which makes ordinary motor oil thick and sluggish when cold, and water-thin when hot? Petroleum jelly has virtually been stripped from Sinclair Opaline Motor Oil. Sinclair refineries have modern refrigerating and sepa- rating equipment which takes petroleum jelly out of Opaline at as low as 60° F. below zero—a point much lower than is required for just removing wax.

(See Sinclair Law of Lubrication booklet which we will gladly give you.) We apply Opaline to your car according to the Sinclair Law of Lubrication. This law is based on the fact that the space between piston and cylinder wall is widened by wear. The grade of oil which filled this space at 5,000 miles cannot safely bridge the gap and prevent blow-by at 15,000 miles. Opaline is refined from selected paraffin base crudes in several grades—one of them will exactly fit your engine according to its present state of wear.
