R. Bannock, 618 Mutual Life building, have scored a reat coup among Ford owners of Seattle and sur. rounding counties, Bateman sald Saturday. “Altho the product has not been on the market long enough to be universally known, {ts reception has been universally enthusiastic among ‘fiivver drivers who have tried it out. ‘The hearty Indorsement: of Wareo oll by Henry Ford's brother, Willlam, who handles Forson equip- ment at Dearborn, Mich., has done much to create confidence in tho new lubricant,” Bateman stated. A long-felt want for a chemical that would overcome the “chatter: ing” of Ford brake and transmis sion bands and at the same time furnish lubricating powor of the highest order, was responsible for the exhaustive laboratory export. ments that finally produced the brand they are now handling, ac cording to the Seattle distributors. “The oll Ig especially adapted to Ford cars; and {ts exclusive use ts certain to quickly show a surprising saving in gasoline and oll expenses, less carbon deposlts and thé small ext possible wear and tear on bear ing and parts. The elimination of vibration also does much to cut down repair bills,” Bateman sald. “The secrot of the process is that 90 per cont of the wax that ts deposited in machinery parts when ordinary of! burns, 1s removed from Warco ol! in tho process of ro finement.” | Detours Mean Nothing to This Auto-Plane PAGE 9 $$$ osm ———S—————r - Se é Z : ‘ William W.
