For many years Mountain Chief ruled supreme and his tribe went unmolested, not through his prowess with war hatchet and knife, but by the strong medicine of his war drum. When Mountain Chief led his young men on the warpath, his enemies fled. Surroundedbyhostile warriors, he on manyoccasions, dis- carded his weapons and sang his war song to the savage, triumphant rhythm of hisfamous drum. His war medicine turned aside arrows and tomahawks to the terror and con- sternation of his attackers, who invariably fledfilled with supersti- tious fear, and fell easy victims for Mountain Chief's followers. w ie @The twin enemies of your engine— Heat and Wear—are powerless before the protective film of Red Indian Motor Oils. This “Oil of Endurance” does not break down, “thin out” or go “sludgy”after a few hundred miles. Red Indian’s ruggedness defies heat—it holds its body under the mostterrific punishment any motorist can hand out and stays on the job longer, economiz- ing on oil changes.
