Roxana Petroleum company is TAX
ing up the SIS inch line which it has
extended from each lease to the Mag
nolia pumping station. This special
line was built last summer when the
predecessors of the Roxana company
made sale of oil to be run by COM
mon carrier shipment, The taking up
of this line probably indicates that
the Roxana people are not figuring on
making any large shipments by the
Magnolia line, but will run their oil
to their tank farm. From there 1t will
probably go out in tank cars.

not properly chargeable to private charity.
In the way, the churches, lodges, and private

their advantage to subscribe literally to the Associated
