MOTOR OIL

The Dawn of a New Lubrication

Automobile lubrication is’not ajniatter of meiely “oiling the engine. Kxpeiicnce has proven beyond question that different designs of engines having various lubricating systems require a uutnbe; of different types of oil. As the automobile developed under the genius of brilliant automotive engineers, men of equal prominence and achievement have been studying m the field of lubrication. The Sun Company, with its 25 years of continuous experience, is especially fortunate in possessing the facilities and resources which have permitted it to bring to completion the highest accomplishment in this particular field. Thus, it is now possible for the motorist to secure guaranteed lubrication for his car-- itassenger or commercial—irrespective of its make or model.

SUNOCO is a clean oil, always unifonn. In zero weather will not thicken in the motor with consequent loss of lubricating ability. It is a straight distilled oil, not compounded of light oils and heavy oils called “cylinder stock”—the cause of carbon troubles. Motorists who give SUNOCO a trial will always use it as i* readily shows its quality in increased power, saving in gasoline, fewer repairs and longer life for the car. We have been appointed exclusive distributors of SUNOCO Motor Oils for Cape May County. We have an attractive proposition for dealers ana garages throughout this territory for this line of automobile lubrication. Dealers who wish to take advantage of this should write us at once. We cau assure prompt attention to their needs as we carry complete stocks in our warehouse at Wildwood.
