Until your motor gets warm it is apt not to burn quite all the fuel taken in. The longer it takes to warm up, therefore, the more unburned liquid fuel to dilute your crank case oil. Ex- perience teaches us always to cover the ra- diator in starting on snappy mornings. That speeds the warming up. It's easier on the motor—gives the oil a much fairer chance to hold its working body. Polarine is today the highest quality motor oil that can be made. Quantity production and universal distri- bution nevertheless keep the price reasonable. Trust the experience built up back of Polarine to give you an oil that flows easily, works efficiently, outwears inferior oils and costs less by the mile, but also trust our experience as to the way to get most out of it.
