In One
Regard We're
Still MOSS.
COVERED

GO often the old swimming
~ hole. she amt what she
used TO be. So often the old
oaken bucket has become a
streamlined faucet. Yet here's
the case of man who has Just
revisited his youth Ito find the
essential satisfactorily the same.
This Standard Oiler started
on a tank-wagon and retired
as a district sales manager. Re
Gently he found himself back
on a tank-truok. For he was
visiting a son who is now on
the very Job at which his IA
ther started years ago.
Well, sir, this father had TO
visit San Francisco headquar-
tiers TO tell associates how happy
this experience had made him.
Any right thinking parent
would give his eye-teeth 10 see
his children get proper start
in life. Fo. him, that sausfae-
uon was in the bag.
We take il as a testimonial of
character that a father who
knOirs BY experience approves
so deeply of his sons career
with Standard that he holds
fair treatment and opportunity
certain for his boy. If such
square shooting toward our
people within and the public
without means being old-fash-
Toned - then We propose 10
remain as moss covered as the
old oaken bucket.
