CONSUMERS buy petroleum products from the Company which serves them best. The Standard Oil Company (Indiana) has succeeded notably because it has given notable service. The desire to render maximum service to the community has actuated this Company in every one of its undertaliings over a long period of years. Proof that the service is being adequately rendered lies in the Company's sales sheets. Lines of efficiency radiate from the Board of Directors through every department of the organization to the ultimate consumer. First on the efficiency chart comes quality of product. To maintain this quality there has been organized modern laboratories where every product is chemically tested for the service it is designed to render. High quality once achieved is made a standard from which deviation is never permitted. Sales and distribution also are organized to produce maximum results at minimum expense. This assures the consumer a dependable supply, and it guarantees that when he buys a Standard Oil Company (Indiana) product he is paying only a fair and equitable price for which he receives full value. Every factor entering into the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) business, from the purchase of crude, its transportation to the Company's refineries, its manufacture into a large number of useful products, its distribution through an intricate network of main and sub-storage depots, tank wagons, and service stations, is developed with a single eye to serving the public. Experience has proved that the most profitable business accrues to that organization which serves the public best. Standard Oil Company (Indiana) 910 S. Michigan Ave, Chicago, 111.
