Making the Shoe Fit the Foot I ' ONE of the outstanding features of the efficiency of the Standard Oil ■ Company (Indiana) is its ability , to expand to meet conditions. In 1919 there were 1,434,909 more motor vehicles in the United States than in 1918. This enormous increase in automotive power made necessary a vast increase of distribution facilities in order that your car, wherever it might be, should nevei lose its usefulness because of an empty gasoline tank.' I The Standard Oil Company (Indiana) anticipated this increasing demand and met it amply in the eleven states it serves with a fleet of 4306 motor trucks, a caravan of horse-drawn wagons, and a little army of 530,000 iron barrels, so that even in remote districts no tractor, truck or pleasure car, need be without fuel at any time. Take into consideration the fact that of the 1,434,909 new motor vehicles put into service in 1919, approximately 573,964 went to farms, and you will appreciate the necessity for this vast distributive system. The Standard Oil Company (Indiana) appreciates that the automobile has passed from the realm of luxury and has become an essential, and that gasoline to run it I has become an industrial necessity. The Company takes pride in the fact that it has met this need in the spirit of service, that it has been keen in anticipating the wants of the public, and efficient in satisfying them through the most perfect distribution system in the world.

STEADY REPUBLICANS!

By Will H. Haya,

Chairman of the Republcan National Committee. Steady, Republicans! ________ This, of all times, is the time to keep the ranks firrq. We are in the front trenches, posted on the- firing steps, each and every one of us, and our duty there is to keep our eyes—every second —on the opposition. Don’t let anything in the rear draw our gaze from thp enemy's line! This is the imperative call to the performance of* an instant duty. Steady! Let not the certainty of Republican success, which means so much for the country’s welfare, be lessened in even the slightest degree by any inability to order our own affair*. Our day is already certain—the day of Republican victory—but we have got to remember—and we must remember NOW—that, sure as the dawn is and bright as the day will be, the moments before its arrival must not be allowed to be fraught with threatenings, for the daylight will be of small use to us in our task of making the most of it. if we blind ourselves before its coming. Let us keep our feet on the ground—we must. Let us keep our eyes ahead—it is our duty, --Let- us keep oar minds clear -if we don’t, then our victory, certain as it is, decisive as it is bound to prove,. will fall short of that benefit to the country as a whole which the next four years demand from the Republican party. We have a national duty. We have got to pull this country out of the si'ouglr of despond and disorder, of extravagance, of an half-baked and false and evil idealism. We have got to set its feet firmly on the solid highway of progress. We have got to start it—aye, and keep it—on the road of justice to all and from all, the road of prosperity, of those things that are best for every man, woman and child among its inhabitants. We have got to restore Americanism to America. This is the gigantic task. Gigantic—but we can do it. It is up to us. There is no doubt about that, and we are going to do it thoroughly. But we must be fit in ever fiber NOW. We must perfect our training NOW, Steady, Republicans! Do now what you did during the

World war. Repeat the patriotism of 1817-1918. ‘ Hold the boat steady. The winds may blow. We have reached the place where the cross-currents may run. But remember that the ripple do not show the direction of the main current, which flows surely and strongly underneath this eddy and that froth. Here is no moment for little things. We have to perform a task worthy of our party strength, worthy of our history; we have a patriotic work to do that is epoch-making, national. Upon our performance will depend bhe future of the country. The chronicler of centuries to come, the generations of Americans to be, will look backward at these now-approaching years as of the most tremendous import in the development of American policy—and it is the Republican party that is to direct that development. Let us permit no distraction. No acrimony among us. No petty bickerings. Nothing—NOTHlNG—must decrease the certainty of our doing well that which we are certainly about to be called upon to accomplish. Let no stones be pat into the snowballs! Loyalty to country. Loyalty to the party. Loyalty to the party always that is to save the country.
