The edge ol optimism that prevailed since election has been dulled. There has been nothing of a nature that would tend to keep it keen. Underlying favorable factors are not so evident to the great mass of people whose sentiment. optimistic or pessimistic, has so direct a bearing upon activities and prices. If one is looking for optimsm and factors that favor such, he will have no trouble, but will have to consider matters in a broad scuse ami analyze underlying factors, and his findings will be of a favorable nature. If one looks for the pessimistic side, he can find factors directly on the surface, in the shape of competition of an extremely keen nature and relatively low margins of profit securable throughout the line of mansfaeture and distribution that are unwholesome As we approach the summer month-- we naturally expect to see a slowing down during July and Aug ust. It has always been so and probably will contimA. The extreme heat, vacation period and the lure of .the -minors. all has Its effect, and perhaps in the final analysis it is wholesome, but during these coming months thoughts turn to the conditions that are Io prevail in the fall. Outstand

jug factors that will affect either'favorably or unfavorably are the crop conditions, tile frame of mind of the farmer, the price that lie will secure for his crops and how much the larg cst purchaser of us all. the farmer, will have to spend as a result of his ycaidu labor. The purchasing power x,l the farmer is now the next important point of” consideration when future prospects are being analyzed. The clouds now on the business izon are clouds of doubt and the question as to whether they will clear up or not may perhaps be best answered by the classical story ot a stranger who met a farmer on a country road. I' hud been raining for three days and was still raining hard. *'Do you thin; .11 will clear up'.’" the stranger inquired. "Well," replied the farmer.

For the Greater Good of the Greater Number ing an insistent demand for the which it is supremely able to render This Company, always alert to utilise th. advanced thought in the rehninga ing of petroleum products has kept itsiK at all times a step ahead. ‘S service “A definite scientific trend in hu.in. methods ” says William Basset,“has de® during the last few years. To succeedS nently, an enterprise must move in haZ with this trend; to resist it is to ultimate failure.” ' S to lnsure The best business thought of today is scientific. This thought applies to industrial mana» ment, as well as to industrial production The Standard Oil Company (Indiana) maintains an unvarying standard in the goods i manufactures because it knows that by main taming these standards a greater service can and will, be rendered its patrons. Its selling prites are based on costs. This policy enables it to sell its standard, high-quality gasoline and oils at consistently low prices, and at the same time to pay adequate wages to its em ployes and a proper return to its stockholders. Only by such well rounded skill in management can lasting service to society be rendered Labor, capital, consumer demand and selling price are all inextricably interwoven. Notcne of these factors can be ignored if an industrial organization is to remain in business. At times these elements seem to be in conflict Customers want lower prices, labor wants higher wages, stockholders want more return from their investment. But an organization efficiently coordinated as is the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) finds it possible to maintain an equitable balance, so that in the end it renders the greater good of the greaternumber. The Standard Oil Company (Indiana) applies its ability in organization; in productionjin handling capital; in management of labor and in all-around efficiency to the service of society. This Company has added vastly to the security, power, opportunity and comfort of life as we know it today. It has made possible the harnessing of millions of machines, and of hundreds of thousands of motors, to transform and improve every phase of human existence.
