RUSSELL BROS. 301 MAIN STREET 75 18. The New Meaning of | “Patriotism” Is the ! Practice of Thrift A MERICA is squarely facing the stern reality of war—the spirit of patriotism on the part of every American is not enough—the practice of patriotism is absolutely necessary—the new meaning of “patriotism” is the practice of ‘Thrift. Every man, woman, or child who spends a coin for a needless article—one that is not absolute- ly needed for sane and simple living—is robbing the Govern- | ment of labor and materials that would have gone into the, making of supplies for our soldiers.

LYON, District Sales Manager PETROLEUM PRODUCTS 21 State Street New York, March 4, 1918 TO THE TRADE: On account of the necessities of the war, the Government has taken six of our tank steamers, for use in trans-Atlantic service, which were formerly used in carrying Gulf pruducts from our refineries in the South to North Atlantic ports. This leaves us at present with about fifty per cent. of our former ocean carrying capacity, which must now be largely used in carrying oil to sustain the continued operations of many public service cor- porations with whom we have contracts, all of which is working a great financial loss to us as well as valued trade. As a result, we have found it ccessary to temporarily discontinue .the sale of rosene and gasoline from our station at New Bri- iam. It is our intention to continue to market lubri- cating oil, Supreme Auto Oil and grease at this sta- tion, for the convenience of our customers and for the purpose of maintaining, as far as possible, our crganization. We regret very much the necessity for this temporary suspension and the great inconvenience that must be suffered by our customers as a result, but we must all recognize that the country is at war and that it is our patriotic duty to aid in every pos- sible manner. We wish to express to you our appreciation of the very liberal patronage which we have received in the past. At present we see no prospect of re- suming sale of gasoline and kerosene, but upon re- turn to us of our ships we will immediately resume operations in full at this station. Yours very truly, GULF REFINING COMPANY
