He can see where he has been, but not where he is going.” A brilliant torch is the ideal of service, held in front of the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) continually lighting it to fresh paths of progress, illuminating the way to unexpected discoveries and scientific advances. - ’Progress in the oil industry within the last few years has been phenomenal. Conservation has acquired a positive and constructive aspect. Thrift rules. Mechanical inventions have cut the cost of refining. Obstacles to widespread distribution of oil products have been eliminated. The entire tendency is in the direction of more ar I more gasoline derived from a given quantity c .rude oil. These valuable contributions have been largely pioneered by the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) which now, as always, is inspired to leadership by the will to serve society. Each contribution has played a part in holding down the price of gasoline and in making gasoline available to everyone, everywhere. This has meant a definite stimulus to the higher living standards of our day. It has made the automobile possible to employes as well as to employers; to poor as well as rich; to suburbanites as well as urbanites. It is in this direction that true democracy lies, and it is in this direction that the torch-light of service guides. The Standard Oil Company (Indiana) is looking ahead, building for the future, as well as serving the needs of the present. This Company has saved, through improved equipment and processes, hundreds of thousands of barrels of petroleum, with consequent holding down of the price of gasoline, through increasing the supply available to meet the demand. ■ This Company recognizes its moral responsibility to provide the large amount of gasoline demanded by the 30 million people of the Middle West, to make this available at rush seasons and in all places frequented by automobile tourists. This recognition of responsi- I bility and the determination to serve the motoring public to the fullest extent possible, are the torches which illuminate the onward march of the activities of this organization.
