A Local Corporation A corporation it a convenient method of holding _ property, someone has said. The Standard Oil Company (Indiana) is thut "convenient” to more than 55,900 people who have elected to invest their savings in a great enterprise. x Men and women from every walk of life are shareholders in this corporation. Their number is equal to the population of Cedar Rapids, lowa, a goodly city. If they were grouped together in a city of shareholders, its population would be as varied as any other city’s—numbering people of all ages, occupations and fortunes. A great many of the 55,900 shareholders of the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) would find it impossible to own any sort of business individually. They have only small amounts of money to invest, earned by hard work and saved by thrift and sacrifice. Yet in cooperation with other stockholders of the Standard Oil Company (Indiana! they are able to own a business that covers 10 states and serves 30 million people. They are able to share in the earnings of the large scale production of a well-run, efficient business. They are able to invest their money as securely and profitably as men of larger means. The Standard Oil Company (Indiana) is more than a method of holding property which 55,900 people have found convenient. It is a method of pooling energy and interests, as well as money, to the advantage of all concerned. 29,573 men and women, 15,325 of whom are stockholders, give their time and effort, and wholehearted loyalty to the work of this corporation. Their combined energies accomplish an enormous task and earn for them the rewards they have a right to expect. Opportunities are unlimited in the Standard Oil Company (Indiana). Promotions are won by ability and effort. This democratic policy and the size of the organization give each individual a chance to invest his ability where it will accomplish most and earn a proportionate reward. The money of stockholders, the effort and ability of employes are combined in the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) to serve 30 million people in the Middle West. * The great group that owns it—the great group that operates it —have assumed the obligation of •iS* ' supplying the motorists of the Middle West with petroleum products of unquestioned quality at prices which are reasonable and fair. » They discharge this obligation with precision, enthusiasm and integrity of purpose.
