The rrd Oil (Indiana) PROBABLYsuch When only the rich cculd aficrd an automobile the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) had the vision of most everyone driving his own machine. The Company set out, not to fin away to make gasoline prices higher, but to keep them low in the face of the enormous demands made by the automobilists, which in the average industry would have caused abnormal increases in price. The efficiency of vhe Standard Oil Company in making a constantly increasing number of by products has kept down the pi ice of gasoline and enabled the man oT modest means to run an automobile after he got it. The Standard Oil Company not only makes gas oline to sell at a low price, but to fit the require ments of the modern automobile engine in such a manner as to enable the owner to get out of his car all that the manufacturer designed it to produce. This is a salient example of the usefulness of the Standard Oil Company not only in contribut ing to the success of other industries, but in dis charging its obligation as a public servant so that all may benefit from its efficiency and by its operations. Standard Oil Company (Indiana) 910 S. Michigan Ave., Chicago I FLOUR Ask i/our-Dealer for It :::,A,i'f no existing indus try serves a useful pur pose in so many ways as the automobile industry, and certainly no industry has had such a mete oric increase in proportions. Such an increase would have been impossible of accomplishment if a market for moderate priced cars had not been found, and without the Standard Company (Indi Oil ana) it would have been impossible to find this market. ..
