"To the Advantage of Consumers and the Public” A court in Wisconsin declared recentlythat “the marketing policies of the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) work to the advantage of consumers and the public.” The LaFollette investigating committee in Washington brought out facts which proved the same thing. The investigation of this Committee developed, we believe, just why the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) has been uniformly successful, and why it has within the comparatively few years of its existence contributed so materially to our national prosperity—more particularly the prosperity in the Middle West. The Standard Oil Company (Indiana) attributes its success primarily to the fact that it earnestly desires to render the public a complete cycle of essential service, from oil well to refinery, to the consumer. The Standard Oil Company (Indiana) is a large retailer of its own products. It maintains for this purpose a distribution system which for size, thoroughness, and efficiency is unequalled in the world. It maintains and expands its business solely on a basis of quality and service. The Standard Oil Company(lndiana) has steadfastly maintained the policy of minimizing the spread between manufacturing costs and retail selling prices. This has meant, and means today a low price for gasoline and other petroleum products as compared with other essential commodities. A glance through any Department of Labor Bulletin featuring comparative prices for necessities will demonstrate this fact. The Standard Oil Company (Indiana) is proud of its success. It believes that its methods are exceptionally efficient. It believes that in many instances they have been a valuable contribution to the country’s economic progress. It believes that the Company’s activities redound to the advantage of the consumer and the public. Standard Oil Company {lndiana) . . 910 S. Michigan Ave., Chicago

The counties of Wells and Blackford will be separated into two judicial districts under a bill which has been passed by the legislature and was signed by Governor McCray. The bill was introduced in the senate by George Saunders. . - Demonstrate Ice Thawing Device Here (Continued from Page One) 30 pounds, is maintained. When the nozzle, from which the steam bows, was placed on the ice this morning, it was but a jiffy until it had eaten its way through and those who saw the demonstration are' convinced that it is a great device, even for the plumber, for we believe a person could thaw out every'pipe in his house in two minutes. When a hydrant is frozen, the nozzle is placed within the hydrant and the pressure turned on and it would have to be au extremely large cake of ice to withstand the heat. As proof that this thawing device is successfully used, the city of New York has installed 21; Boston, 10; Jersey City, 9; and Fort Way nV, 6. In an actual test, ice frozen solid in a five foot length of 6 Inch pipe, was melted in 25 seconds. The purhase of the Ross Thawing device will more than likely be reported to the council Tuesday evening.
