NASOLINE is the major product made
i by the Standard Oil Company Qndi-
ana) and in the manufacture of this
most essential product of petroleum, this
Company stands in the lead.
But gasoline is only one of the many prod
uctS sent to the world with the unqualified
guarantee of this organization; for as
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 perfect motor oil. 1t was first
introduced to the motoring world in 1908
when 100 gallons were sold. Year by year
the demand has increased until in 1920,
23,979,O5O 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 research department of this Company.
But lubricating motor vehicles is but small
item when the lubricating service of the
Standard Oil Company Qndiana) is con-
sidered. Every type of machinery has been
studied and an oil or grease perfectly
adapted to keep the bearings running
smooth and cool has been produced.
From the flying spindles of the loom to the
ponderous bearings of the steel roller, each
problem presented has been met squarely,
fairly and with deep understanding that to
meet its needs was not only good business,
but was essential 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 principle
in all is to give maximum of service at a
minimum of expense.

when taxes are high and the home
people are seeking employment,
when some departments are being
discontinued in the schools and
others are being objected to and
their discontinuance debated, Is a
good time for the people to give some
study to school matters and counsel
with the trustees In serious, but
friendly manner. 1t is good time
for trustees to keep the public as
well acquainted with school matters
as they can SO the people may know
in advance the doubtful moves
rather than to discover and criticise
them after all doubtful moves have
been made. The coming year will
be good year for Bingham county
to study its schools. Aside from con-
ditions already mentioned, we shall
have the annual teachers institute
at the county seat and there will be

thousands of dollars publishing
photos and explaining to the whole
country what Memphis had done
since this other publication two or
three years before.
But to return to the first publica-
lions, after the first few instances
had been published and "held up to
censure" of the entire country, Box
began to receive letters from the
mayors of cities saying that II he had
photos of their city that he was go
ing to publish, they hoped he would
ont do it, as they were engaged in
cleaning up the city and were doing
their best to get right. In two Of
these cities Box had the plates ready
and articles in preparation for list
ing them as dirty cities and he
wrote the mayors explaining the sit
uation. He sent them copies Of the
pictures he was about to publish and
said that II they would send him
pictures OF the same places already
cleaned up there would be no 0c-
casion to publish them. Both mayors
responded as soon as possible with
photos showing the same premises
cleaned up. Box and Mcfarland
had set all the cities of the country
to studying cleanliness and many Of
them to cleaning up. Since. that
time most Of them had had cleanup
days and cleanup weeks and periods

Permission Secured
to Store Water for
Use in This Valley

IDAHO FALLS.-Permission has
been secured from the state of
Wyoming to store the waters of Salt
river in Wyoming and to transfer
this water in season to Idaho lands,
according to F. v. Riley, an engineer
Of this city, who has been working
on this undertaking for the last
three years.
The dam which is to be built at
the Narrows in the upper end of Star
Valley, which is about 100 miles east
OF this city will create a reservoir
sufficient to store water for the irri-
cation of $4,000 acres. The reservoir
will be six miles long, two miles wide
and fifty feet deep. 1t will take
about two years to complete the
structure and have water ready for
delivery at a cost Of $500, 900. 1t is
estimated that the water rights will
be worth $1,500,O00.
The water will be sent down the
south fork Of the Snake river and
used on the lands where there is the
greatest need and desire for it. The
Narrows will be closed with earth
and concrete and all construction
work will be done by the use Of
electric power developed at the dam
site. Hydraulic sluicing methods
will be used for the earth fill. The
spot chosen is an ideal one for the
building Of dam and the construc-
ton of reservoir.
