HEAD OF BAR ASSOCIATIONS DIES.

IRON the back of a sheep to
L the back of a man, wool
passes through dozens Of pro
cesses and machines, some of
which were made possible, and
all of which were shortened, by
some product of petroleum.
So delicate is the adjustment of
this machinery that from the
cams moving at a rate of $50
revolutions per minute, to the
flying spindles, whose revolu-
tons per minute exceed $4,000,
every part must be in unison.
For, should one part be retarded
alittle, and another part speeded
up unduly, through faulty lubri-
cation, there would be a strain
on the fabric, and a break.
The seriousness of such a break is seen
when it is understood that the severing
of a single thread will bring the giant
loom to standst;ll instantly.
This is but single example of the
problems constantly being brought to
Standard Oil Company Qndiana) lubri-
eating engineers for solution, and en-
phasizes the necessity for the minutest
accuracy on the part of these specialists
in drawing specifications for special
lubricants, and the need for extreme
accuracy on the part of the manufac-
turing department in producing lubri-
Cants to meet these specifications.
1t illustrates how highly specialized is
the branch of industry which engages
the attention of the Standard Oil Com
pany Qndiana), and the degree of en-
thusiasm for perfection which must pre-
vail throughout this organization.
And this enthusiasm does prevail. Har-
mony and concentrated interest is ever
present throughout the organization of
