P a g e F o u r t e e n T H E D I L L O N E X A M I N E R Wed., Feb. 15,1950 Activities Are Planned by Troop Boy Scout Troop 14, sponsored by the V.F.W., 'held a regular meeting last evening at Bagley school, and outlined some of the activities for the spring and sum mer months. Scoutmaster John McDonald has announced plans for at least one troop hike per month during the summer as well as other activities in cooperation with the Vigilante council. Troop 14 will hold a camporee of three days during the latter part of May in preparation for a later outing at Camp Lowlands. On Friday, Feb. 17, at 7:00 p. m. there will be an investiture cere- mony of Tenderfoot Scouts at Bagley school. Also at that meeting, the troop charter will be presented by the Vigilante Scout Council. The public is cordially invited to attend the ceremonies McDonald’s troop has installed an attractive scout display in the window of the Daily Tribune, car rying out this year’s theme, Lib erty’s Heritage, and illustrating the manner in which early west ern pioneers made their fight for freedom. Miniature replicas of a stockade, c a b i n , lean-to and bridge have been handicrafted for the exhibit, as well as a mineral collection loaned by George and Walter Featherly, and scouting paraphernalia consisting of uni forms, guide books, etc. .m u s a t t t I I t BEAVERHEAD’S FAVORITE NITE SPOT Famous for its Fine Food Join the Crowd at P i p e O r g a n Special Entertainment and Music Saturday and Sunday Fine Foods Always DINING ROOM OPEN FROM 10:00 A.

At the end of the test run, which put more than 50,000 miles on each car—the motors were torn down and checked for wear, which proved to be less than one-thousandth of an inch on cylinders and crankcase shafts. As the Rangers learned at the conclusion of the test, wear had been so negligible that factory machining marks were still visible on piston rings. As a service to veterans in .the community, this newspaper will publish a weekly column of questions most frequently asked contact men of the Veterans Administration in this area. .For more detailed information, vet erans should contact or write to the nearest VA contact unit. Continental Oil Company today revealed development of a new motor oil—the result of eight years’laboratory research, tw o winters of testing in Montana and Colorado, and a 60,000-mile road test along the Mexican border, according to A. L. McArthur, lo cal agent for Conoco. The new oil called “Conoco Super Motor Oil,” wll be made available in Beaverhead county starting Wednesday, February 16, he said. “The remarkable performance of the oil under severe and ex haustive road testing, plus the fact that it has met every chal lenge of the laboratory for pre venting wear and keeping en gines clean,” said Mr. McArthur, “convinces all of us with Conti nental that this new super motor oil is as nearly perfect as it is possible today to develop a lu bricating oil.” Each of six cars and four trucks, during the 70-day road test along the Mexican border, covered more than 50,000-miles at an average speed of 60 miles an hour for the cars and 50 miles an hour for the trucks. The cars were run for 14 horns each day, six days a week, in the sizzling South Texas heat that at times reached 110 degrees in the shade. Eight hun dred miles per day were racked up on the speedometers of the test cars, and 690 miles a day on the trucks. • T h e m o s t p o w e r f u l ( ■ C y l i n d e r F o r d T r u c k E n g i n e E v e r B u i l t Ï ENCINE FOR THE HEAVY DÌITY F-6 Thoroughly Proved in Industrial Engine and Motor Coach Operation New T10-H.P.

In fact, by actual measurement with highly sensitive instruments, wear was an average of less than one ten- thousandth of an inch on cylin ders and crankshafts. Original factory machining marks were still visible on piston rings. The road testing results are certified ¡by the Southwest Re search Institute of San Antonio, Tex., and Norman Penfold of the Institute, under whose certifica tion the test run was made. Mr. Penfold is acknowledged as the outstanding independent autho rity on oil testing. According to Mr. McArthur, the new oil for local automobile and truck owners represents an other long step forward in the method pioneered and developed by Continental Oil company for using additives in mineral oils to increase effectiveness against wear and assure longer life for motors.

INSURANCE MUST BE RENEWED Veterans who took out National Service life insurance in 1942 are reminded ¡by the Veterans Ad ministration that they must con vert or renew their present poli cies this year, before they \expire. Failulre of veterans to do so may result in the loss of their G.I. in surance, unless they are able to pass a physical examination. G. I. policies issued in 1942 have eight years to run before they must be converted or renewed^ and veterans must apply for their new policies before the old ones run out. Many veterans, the VA said, are not sure when they first took out their N.S.L.I. policies and needlessly take the risk of losing their insurance protection because they don’t know when their poli cies should ¡be renewed. Even though the VA will try to notify the veteran sixty days ahead of time before the expira tion date of his G.I. insurance policy, it is wise for him to check with the VA to determine the an niversary date of his insurance policy if he isn’t sure. Approximately one-third of the half-million veterans in the Pa- cfic Northwest who have G I. in surance pay their premiums dur ing the 31-day “grace perod.” They, too, face the loss of their insurance when it expires, be cause it may no longer be in force when they get around to making application for a convert ed policy or a renewal. The VA advised veterans to pay their premiums on time and depend on the “grace period” only in cases of real financial emer gency. Question of the Week Q.: Will the VA lend me the money to build a home? I was honorably discharged after four years of service in World War II. A.: The VA does not lend mon ey. You must make your own arrangements for the loan through the usual financing channels. The VA will guarantee your lender against loss up to *50 per cent of the loan, with a maximum guar antee of $4,000 on real estate and $2,000 on non-real estate loans* Mrs. Glenn Freeman, secretary to the county superintendent, has ¡been ill since Tuesday, Feb. 7. Mrs. Marvin Slehofer of Arm stead was in Dillon on business yesterday. Institution o f Eagles Auxiliary Planned for Feb. 26 Mrs. Gladys McLaren, chair man of the committee in charge of organizing a local F.O.E. auxil iary, has received word that M. A. Cornelius of the state organiza tion will be in Dillon, Sunday, Feb. 26.
