world which has turned the whole
thought Of mankind into more
wholesome, constructive channels.

the dominant idea is service and
helpfulness.
In business particularly, is this idea
apparent
Today only those business institu-
tons which render to the public
definite, specific service can hope
to survive the changed ideals of
the world.
The Standard Oh Company Qndi-
ana) is bending every effort to con-
duct its affairs in such manner as
to conform to these modern ideals.
1t is the ambition of the Company
to broaden the scope and intensity
the service it renders the public so
as to make every man who buys
even a gallon of gasoline feel that
he is receiving the greatest possible
value for the money he spends.
1t is the Company's steadfast pur-
pose to make every product it
manufactures of the highest quail

activities in step with the chang
