Nov. 12 —Rails and Industrials made new highs for the present bull market at the previous close, giving striking confirmation • of the primary character of the current forward move. This demon- ■ etration of the fundamentally bull-; Ish nature of the advance brought fresh buying Into the genera! 15 a t and the whole market continued buoyant In the early dealings. Frisco’s startling performance in jumping more than 4 points to 51 ■was the outstanding feature of the rails. The Ftock was selling around 3!) when attention was firs’ called f Its remarkable earnings and the ,ct that dividend payments at the 5 4 rate or better were likely to be . started before spring. Steel and American Can maintained the leal of the Industrials ex periencing an enormous turnover at the best levels of the move. Profit Taking Felt In the late morning profit taking made the greatest impression on the general list that It has exercised since the outburst of enormous activity since election. Recessions of from one to two points from the best levels of the move took place at milday among some of the leaders of the advance. Reactionary tendencies in issues like Southern Pacific and American were offset by continued operations for the rise in many sections of the market. General Klectric reached a new high on the move at 265, up 8 points from Tuesday's low. and cast Iron pipe sold at anew records price of 130%.

When Windshield Wiper and Non-Skid Chains Make Driving Safer To secure clear vision in wet and snowy weather, some kind of windshield wiper is necessary. You have your choice of three different kinds of wipers; those operated by hand, by electricity and by the suction of the engine. The mechanical type of wiper is now standard equipment on a large number of ears and if you hax'e not one of these useful accessories fitted to your car, you will find it is a good thing to install. The hand wiper is all right for a light shower, but when you are driving in x’ery wet weather or when it is snowing, you hax'e to use the hand wiper every twenty or thirty yards to keep the windshield clean. The mechanical wiper can be set to operate fast or slow and without any attention on the driver’s part and will keep the windshield clean under any weather conditions. Many accidents occur every year on account of blurred windshields that made it impossible for the driver to see clearly. Fit a wiper before the wet weather sets in and make driving safer for yourself and other users of the road. If you do not have a windshield wiper and do not Intend to fit one you can keep the glass fairly clear by rubbing with a mixture of half alcohol and glycerin. Shake, up the mixture thoroughly and apply with a cloth. The effect of this mixture is to cause the water to spread or llaiten out and run down the glass and prevent it forming In large globules. There are a number of special cloths and prepared mixtures that can be bought in any accessory store that are also very good. The effect of these mixtures only lasts for a short time and usually Just when you need them most they are not available. The wisest thing to do is to fit a good mechanical wiper then you will be sure of a clean windshield as long as you have your car.
Be very careful when opening or closing the windshield during cold weather. The cold makes the glass very brittle and if you pull out one side more than the other you are liable to crack the glass. Last winter the writer got caught while driving in a snow storm with a car that was not fitted with a good wiper and had to open up the windshield to get a view of the road ahead. One side of the frame of the windshield stuck a little and the next thing I heard was ‘’crack.” and a perfectly good windshield glass was cracked. Remember this tip If you have to open up the windshield In cold weather and It may save you the price of a
new glass. Nothing looks worse about a car than rusty parts on the body or fend-

that is necessary to put the chains in good condition is a few new cross link sections. Do not fit chains too tightly or they will cut the tread of the tire. They should be fitted loose enough to allow the links to work around the tire. It is very bad practice to wire the sides of the chains to a spoke in the wheel, yet a number of drivers do this under the impression that the chains act better when fastened in this way. Fit your chains loosely and you will find that they act better than when they are tight and will not damage the treads of the tires. Copyrighted, 1924, by the S. N. L. Technical Syndicate.

The larger service is not typified by the storekeeper who delivered a spool of cotton in a five-ton truck manned by three men. Nor is it typified by the man who attempts to unload the contents of a freight car with a market basket. The larger service consists of giving the people what they want, when they w r ant it, at a minimum cost of time, labor and money. This, the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) does. Cost and waste are closely related. Cost is controlled and waste is eliminated by the same factors capable management and intensive organization. The Standard Oil Company (Indiana) has lowered consistently its manufacturing costs by creating new and useful products from that residue of petroleum which had been acknowledged as waste. Each new r product created has been made to bear its true proportion of the manufacturing costs of all products taken from the single base —crude petroleum. The benefits accruing from this economy have been passed to the consumer in lower prices and improved service. Because the business of the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) is balanced to a fine point there is no slack season. A shut-down in its manufacturing plants seldom occurs. There is no waste effort or unnecessary overhead expense to be absorbed. Products flow through the manufacturing channels of this Company uninterruptedly and are sold at natural not artificially maintained—prices. Such a condition in the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) is not a circumstance, it is a policy—for experience has demonstrated that manufacturing cost, selling price and quantity production are inseparable. The Standard Oil Company (Indiana) is inspired by a determination to render the most comprehensive service the larger service. This means a tremendous turn over, with a small profit per unit of sale. It is on this foundation that the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) has become one of the truly great institutions of America —a constructive force for good-—and an influencing factor in solving problems closely related to the social and economic welfare of the thirty millions of people in the Middle West.

arrives, take a can of enamel and go round and paint all bare spots. Before applying the enamel remove the rust by rubbing with a piece of sandpaper. Use a very small brush and apply the enamel only on the bare part. If you paint the edges where the enamel is quite good, you will leave a large prominent mark that will be very noticeable. When the roads are covered vdth ice driving is dangerous unless the rear wheels are fitted with non-skid chains. If you still have the chains you used last year, take them out and examine the links. You will probably find that some of the cross links are worn thin. In this case all
