When the Carlisle school for In- dians passed out, it played hob with the development of the Indian in athletic life. In the old days Carlisle + turned out many great athletes on the gridiron as well a3 on the diamond. Most Indian athletes are called Chief. That title was early handed to Bender and Myers, buf somehow Jim Thorpe escaped Chief Myers was a mighty fine catcher. For years he was the main- stay of the New York Giants back of the bat. Myers wasn’t a Ty Cobb on the bases, but he sure could hit. Chief Bender was starring with the Athletics about the same time Myers ‘was going big with the Giants.

It believes that no apology for profit making is necessary—that profit making is. as serviceable to the consumers of its products as it is to the stockholders. Profits are the result of needed service —efficiently supplied. Without profits, service is impossible. Out of its profits, the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) finances its increased facilities for service. Out of these profits it extends its service and builds for ampler and fuller service in the future. Out of” profits it pays its 50,000 stockholders for the use of their money. Standard Oil Company (Indiana) stor- age and service stations, spread over the length and breadth of the Middle West, are expressive evidences of service. Into the farming regions of the west, service carried Standard Oil Company (Indiana) tanks and tank wagons, in ad- vance of settlement. This service was of inestimable value to men struggling to force the land. to produce and in the end has been profitable to the Standard Oil Company (Indiana). Every expansion of this Company— bulk storage stations—modern refineries —-scientific and technical equipment—all are essential service factors and all are nae possible by profits through service. Every one will admit that oil has been an essential factor in the development of the Middle West. Motorists, farmers, business men—in fact, every one—will acknowle og AO dn , that the Standard Oil Com- na) has been a major factor oil products to automobiles, ie ovat to farms, to homes, with a guarantee of dependability and of quality. To render this essential service would have been utterly impossible except for the ability of the Management to conduct the affairs of this Company so that profits could be returned to the stockholders. Profits are the inducement for capital to invest. The has enabled the lor ability to create profits Standard Oil Company (indians) to attract the capital necessary its expansion. This Company has proved, in its long experience, that economies of luction and distribution can be achieved only through a heavy investment of capital and a highly perfected organization, working with enthusiasm and sustained energy.
