SUBMARINE CONVULSION BELIEVED UNDER WAY i LONDON, Oct. 2.—Discovery by a cable repair ship that the bed of' the ocean in the vicinity of St. Helena had risen two miles during the last 20 years has led to a be lief among scientists that the whole southern Atlantic ocean bed is undergoing a vast submarine con- , vulsion.

V To the untrained eye, crude petroleums ©f all look pretty much alike, but to the re- J finery gxpert their grades and qualities £ vary widely. The process of converting this crude oil W W into various products is a most interesting one. Refining, distillation and filtration bring about the separation of various lOtpyi "fractions”—from gasoline to roofing and paving materials. „ The production of a motor oil is one of ww the most important steps in this process; ■ the effort being made to take out the im purities and at the same time leave in the |g ■ "oiliness” or "viscosity”. Polarine ■ MOTOR OIL ' ia mado from the heart of choicest, selected I ' ' ‘crudes”, in one of the world’s greatest resin- S cries, and by painstaking care in every step g of it?, manufacture, it comes to you as tho g perfect motor oil. Ask your dealer for a copy .. v of the free booklet, “Making Motors Run \ Smoother”; it will interest you and save B you money. , jj 7 / j|j Ij. Hit?
