GRAIN PRICES
Furnished by E. W. WAGNER & CO., 212 Union National Bank ' Building. CHICAGO, Dec. 27. Grain markets slow with news somewhat easy just so long as the foreigners say out of the wheat market. Grains are sustained by the rumpus to demand financial aid for the larmer. Washington eays there is one-half dozen measures to regulate grain trading may come up Jan. 4, before the Agricultural committee. This also may have a little effect. For the long pull, however, the best observers say that not a single one of the present moves to help United States grain prices is of importance owing to the severe business situation. Overnight the grains should be twofclded with sales on small bulges. Wheat and corn deliveries continue liberal. RANGE OF FUTURES Furnished by E. W. WAGNER & CO., 212 Union National Bank Building.

in the K. of P. Temple to discuss means of aiding the movement to improve the educational situation in Indiana. A number of alumni from each institution live in Richmond and it is thought that substantial assistance can be given in the work of securing larger appropriations for the state schools. Indiana stands seventeenth among the states in educational standing and alumni of the state schools are forming organizations over the state to bring their native state closer to the top. It has been found that Indiana Institutions are unable to compete with f-chools of other states because insufficient funds render Ihem incapable of holding their instructors and making necessary improvements in equipment. Alumni of the three schools living in Richmond will unite in their effort to help their alma maters.

INDIA MILL WOfiKERS WRECK FACTORIES IN SERIES OF STRIKES
(By Associated Press) BOM BAY, Dec. 27. Three thousand strikers at one mill in the vicinity of Bombay, wrecked the office of the factory a few days ago and stoned a motor car containing police, severely injuring one inspector and two soldiers. Before the police succeeded in dispersing the strikers, they took to 'ooting shops. A number of arrests were made and the mill district is being picketed. Minor disorders took place elsewhere in the city, some stoning of street cars being indulged in at various places. The situation became serious enough for the commissioner of police to call the mounted police, who charged the crowd In seml-clr-cular fashion. The casualties have not been reported, but the crowd broke up anda fled. Wholesale arrests were soon-after made, 60 men being taken in custody. For more than two months now the city of Bombay has been witnessing a series of strikes in the mill industry, on the street cars, in gas works and the postal service. The tension has grown every day more serious especially on account of government refusal to arbitrate the various disputes. An all-India Trade Union Congress recently held in the foremost industrial city has given further Impetus to the laboring ranks. The Bombay strikers have sent a cable to London asking for financial support from the British Labor Movement for their cause.

"HE miracle of mechanical
development which has revolutionized the world
and has changed man's habit of life, even in the remotest wilderness, was made possible by the discover of oil in 1858, and the development of oil refining, in which the Standard Oil Company was a pioneer and leader. With the development of the petroleum industry came a cheap, efficient, easily secured lubricant, capable of keeping the bearings of the heaviest machinery running cool and without friction. It is the thin film of mineral oil which has made possible the great mechanical inventions of the modern world. When population was scarce and widely scattered, the surplus animal and vegetable fats were sufficient to grease the simple machinery of that day, but with the vast development of mechanical power these sources of lubricants would be quite inadequate. The old system and the new may be visualized by comparing the "grease rag" of Madeira with the marvelous automatic force feed lubrication in your automobile. In Madeira the native walks ahead of his team, smearing the cobblestones with a grease rag, while you drive comfortably because petroleum has made automatic lubrication possible. Con-set lubrication is the life of industry, and correct lubrication depends entirely upon petroleum. All other products of crude oil, while adding much to the prosperity, co-ruort and gayety of the world, could be given up without the disastrous consequences which woild follow the elimination of the petroleum lubricants. The Standard Oil Company (Indiana) manufactures a large number of oils and greases, each designed to meet an especial need. To serve industry better, the Company maintains a staff of lubricating experts whose business it is to study the problems of individual industries, and determine the lubricants necessary to increase the efficiency of machinery, and to prolong its life. r The Standard Oil Company (Indiana) is proud of its position as the manufacturer of the lubricants used by so large a number of important industries throughout the nation.
