The Medicine Manthen sought protection for his tribe from the perils of warpath and hunt by presenting the Pipe to MOTHER EARTH with most devout incantations and elaborate ceremonies. ABSOLUTE PROTECTION @ Everytrip is a danger trail to your engine— unless it is guarded by Red Indian’s never-failing “protective film’’. Cold, from hours of parking in chilly winds, or white-hot from long journeys at roaring speeds, Red Indian Motor Oil spreads its heat-resisting, wax-free lubrication between the moving surfaces of your engine, assuring smooth, quiet operation under the most severe con- ditions. Drain the crankcase and refill with Red Indian—it will prove its superiority underanytest. SEALE D IN CANS...IT’S SURE TO BE PURE! DANGER DAYS ARE HERE— CHA NGE NOW TO SUMMER.GRADEOIL @ The winter-grade Red Indian Motor Oil that protected your engine so reliably when the ther- mometer fell to zero is not the oil for the warm weather ahead. Do not delay! Stop at the nearest Red Indian Sign. Say the two magic words that spell safety to your engine. They are — DRAIN — REFILL—with summer-grade Red Indian; then you are ready for higher engine heats and longer drives with an oil that is heat-resistant— rugged—that does not break down. | “OFFERING TO THE SUN‘'—drawn from life by Winold Reiss, outstanding contemporaryartist and foremost painter of North American Blood Indians RED INDIA THE O/L OF ENDURANCE LUE h ARAT a 0 Bs ~ THE POWER GASOLINE MZECOLL - FRONTENAC OIL COMPANY LIMIT EOD t An All- Canadian Company THAT AT MURRAY BAY - QUEBEC LAND OF Again the MANOIR RICHELIEUushers in Canada’s summer season— Rates now as low as this year on Saturday, June 27th.
