& Mention the Leader When Writing Advertisers ~ Qiling the Wheels ‘of the World the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) and in the manufacture of this most essential product of petroleum, this Company stands in the lead. GASOLINE is the major product made by But gasoline is only one of the many prod- ucts sent to the world with the unqualified guar- antee of this organization; for as a manufacturer of lubricants it stands among the leaders. No service performed by this Company is more important, more essential or more far- reaching than the’ work it is doing to keep the machinery of the world running smoothly and efficiently. Of the many lubricating oils and greases sent out under its name, none is more widely known or more universally accepted, than those bearing the Polarine brands. Polarine is a perfect motor oil. It was first introduced to the motoring world in 1908 when 1100 gallons were sold. Year by year the demand has increased until in 1920, 23,979,050 gallons were manufactured and sold to the car owners in the Middle West. When first introduced there was but one grade of Polarine oil. Now there are four, each designed to meet the need of certain types of engines. The development of four grades of oil, one of which will correctly lubricate any type or make of internal combustion engine, is but one of the essential services performed by the rcsearch department of this Company. But lubricating motor vehicles is but a small tem when the lubricating service of the Standard Oil Comrpany (Indiana) is considered. Every type of machinery has been studied and an oil or grease perfectly adapted to keep the bearings runniag smooth and cool has been produced. From the flying spindles of the loom to the ponderous bearings of the stéam roller, each problem presented has been met squarely, fairly - and with a deep understanding that to meet its needs was not only good business, but was essen- tial if the Company was to live up to the ideals of service, to which it is committed. While lubricating the wheels of the world is highly essential, it is but one of the many branches of service which the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) is organized to perform. In every department of its complex and highly specialized business, the same ideals of thoroughness, integrity and efficiency are insisted upon. The underlying principlein all is to give a maximum of service at a minimum of expense. Standard Oil Company (Indiana) 910 So. Michigan Avenue, Chicago, I \ CuTt AND DRIED BUT SOMEBODY DID The proprietor of a stud poker game in Montana went to the Twin Cities and lost all his money speculating in wheat. When he came back his wife upbraided him. “How is it you win so much money on cards and can’t win' on wheat?"” " she asked. “My dear,” said the gambler, “I didn’t get a .chance to shuffle the ~wheat.” E3 ES * Rumors are that Messrs. Wig- gle and Wobble, supposed to have been banished, are still lurking .around the White House grounds. * £ %k President Harding has had a spe- ‘cial bed, eight feet long, made for his use at the White House. We wonder which end of him has grown so since he left Marion. & £ * A Consistency is called a jewel because it is so rare. n * & GUILTY CONSCIENCE The visitor from the country ran into an old-acquaintance on the floor of the wheat exchange. “So you’re a member of the wheat exchange now ?” said the visitor, when greetings were over. “Yes, but for Pete’s sake don’t tell the old folks at home. They think I’'m still making an honest living boot- legging.” & E3 President Harding took 7,500 - words to tell us there was a good deal to be said on both sides of the matter. % * Nevada is going to put its murder- ers to death with poison gas. We can think of plenly of politicians ready at all times to supply the right kind of gas. y * ¥ £ Our greatest national problem is whether we shall build war- ships or friendships. * * £ 4 A rumor is a twice-told lie. When printed in a newspaper it becomes “an authoritative report,” and when another paper plcks it up it becomes history. RN SR A minority has inalienable .rights in America if it can run fast enough to escape tar and feathers. * % * “I want to be perfectly fair with you,” said the banker to the farmer, “so I'll toss up this coin to see what happens to your farm. If it comes down heads I'll take it away from you, if it comes down tails you'll give it to me, and if it stands on edge TI’ll pay you for it.” %* % * Many a farmer suffers like Job and many a worker wishes he had one, J £ £ & The English coal diggers who re- fused to pump water out of the mines while on strike are called anarchists. But the bankers who industriously pump water into railroad stocks are called captains of industry. : * % % We have a growing suspicion that “normalcy” is simply what the late Mark Hanna was trying to get at. - * ok % : Congress seems to think our pres- ent marketing system is all right ex- cept in a few spots. Similarly a punctured tire is generally perfectly round except at the bottom. PAGE FOUB.TEEN L ADVERTISEMENTS Army Goods We Are the Largest Dealers in Army Goods. USED 0.
