No. 3) |pk T || JPjp m J|f On January 1, 1913, the Standard Oil “U Company (Indiana) was paying $1.44 per barrel for crude delivered at the refinery at Whiting, Ind., and was selling gasoline for per gallon. On December 31, 1919, the price of crude had advanced to $3.51 per barrel, f. o. b. Whiting, and the selling price of gasoline to 21c per gallon. In other Words this Company is paying two and one-half times as much for crude oil as it was in 1913, but because of its more efficient refining methods it is able to sell gasoline to you for less than onehalf more than was charged at that time. ( Continuing the table :) Crude Petroleum . . . . 100 240 140 % Red Crown Gasoline . . 100 144.8 44.8% It will be seen from the above tables that gasoline stands at the end of the list as regards price increase, and that crude petroleum stands sixth from the end, showing how effectually refining efficiency has operated in behalf of the motorist Every cost entering into the making of gasoline has risen immensely. The cost of crude, the cost of refining, and the cost of marketing are all greater than ever before. The Standard Oil Company (Indiana) by superior efficiency in every process of refining and distributing has contributed in no small degree to hold the price of gasoline down to its present level. Every man in the manufacturing end of the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) is keenly alive to the pressing necessity for an increased output of gasoline at a minimum manufacturing cost The ideal toward which the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) is striving, is to put Red Crown, a gasoline of known, standard quality, within the reach of motorists everywhere in the Middle West at a price so low as to make possible the free use of that 25 percent increase in automotive vehicles which is anticipated for 1920. \ Standard Oil Company (Indiana) 2086 J 910 So.

SHUT UP JULIETTA, ADVICE TO COUNTY (Continued From Page One.) and probably will ont be as long as it is a county Institution,” he stated. “It does not belong to a system with standards and conferences of officers,” and further on decidedly stated that "for the good of the insane in Marion county and for such in other counties as are committed to almshouses, it would be advisable to discontinue Julietta and transfer the inamtes to the care of the state.” To accomplish this, Dr. Wright stated that additional accommodations would be needed at the Central Hospital for the Insane or in colonies operated by it and advised that such provisions he made. ASKS TEMPORARY REPAIRS BE MADE. He stated that pending the time such a transfer can be made, certain improvements should be made at Julietta so as to allow patients who are able to work on the farm. The report showed that some dark cells are still used for women while these have been replaced by light, well ventilated rooms on the men's side. Dr. Wright reported that very littl fruit is used and held that more should be served. The report showed that no report is kept of the farm produce used on the table and that it is impossible to know what the maintenance is costing. He held, a teacher is needed to show the patients, however feeble or crippled, something they can do, and stated that there are evidently some patients at Julietta who do not belong, for example, three small feeble-minded boys. "If all the patients were examined, more would prfibably be found that belong at the State School for the Feebleminded or at the poor asylum, and if possible should be cleared of all patients not Insane." Dr. Wright reported. He held that the institution “is clean. In good repair and, considering the lim ited help, is reasonably well managed but stated that “satisfactory results, how ever, can not be expected until more attention <an be given the patients." He staed that the "fire hazard” at Julietta "is great.", as there Is no large body of water for immediate use. FINDS FAULT WITH SINNYSIDE SYSTEM. In considering Sunnysid© Dr. Wright takes the position that the best thought on the care of tubercular patients is to operate a hospital as a school and that

the campaign against tuberculosis should be carried into the home. The report in no way reflects on the present management and agrees with the future building plans of Supt. Hatch. He held that the public’s opinion of a tnberculosls hospital should be changed .to that of considering a hospital primarily as a training school, and secondary as a hospital. In considering the general system of handling poor relief in Marion county through the township trustees, Dr. Wright offered many suggestions. He pointed out that the present system for relief of the poor is not meeting the present demands in Marion county and held that since the commissioners devote much time to road building, that it appears advisable that anew board be created, probably under the name of the Marion county board of public welfare, to handle poor relief and so relieve the county commissioner* of this work. This plan would make possible the employment of trained experts to do the work. Dr. Wright also recommended that the guardianship function of the com missioners be transferred to the board of guardians, but legislation will be needed to accomplish this.

Better get a package today and begin to get stronger and healthier, as well as better looking.—Advertisement Cause of Teeth Stains and Remedy It is not generally known, tho dental profession, that on all teeM| are thin, transparent films or “plaques," which dentifrices are incapable of erasI lng. ’this accounts for the obstinacy of most teeth stains, for when these films become discolored from any cause, tho most persistent brushing has little if any effect on them. This also accounts for millions of teeth germs, the surfaces underneath the films providing such fruitful breeding places. In the light of these facts, considerable Importance must be attached to the discovery by a prominent dentist of a combination of substances which completely and quickly removes these discolored films. The product which he evolved, known as “Once-a-Week Tooth Polish." not only Is entirely non-injuri-ous to the enamel, but is remarkably potent in preserving teeth aDd preventing decay. If one will procure a package of this from the druggist and use a little on a tooth brush once a week the disagreeable stains will not return, tartar will not form, germs will not attack the enamel. This information will prove Invaluable to every one desirous of owning really clean, white, beautiful teeth. Parents should see that their children use this product regularly.—Advertisement.
