The petrolemn industry, in which gasoline, kerosene
and lubricating oils are leading factors, is one of th«;
l a t e s t in the world, both in point of capital invested
and as an essential of modern life, It is composed of four
distinct but closely related branches —- production, trans
portation, refining and marketing. Production which has
to do with prospecting and drilling wells incolvc® a vast
financial outlay, an appreciable part of which id tothl
loss.
When the crude petroleum is run into the field storage
tanks the transportation element of tine industry comes
into play. There are approximately 67,000 miles of trunk
pipe lines In the Vgiited States, operating across the conn
tiy from the tank farms to terminals on the Atlantic, Pa By.CHARLES P... STEWART

THE FIN A N C IA L PU LSE
How’s the good old budget by this time! The fiist
quarter is about over and it’s time to feel the family’s
financity pulse. Going steady and^ even, is it! Current
bills being promptly paid, thrift funds up to date, with
their sense of hope and cheer for the future? And a’little
margin for good times? And enjoying the good times
twice as much ass of yore, because now they are justly
earned, and are not cutting into any other fund?
Or is the pulse rather fast and fluttery, full of ex
cuses for the usual bad management, but without much
definite promise for being any lietter this year than last?
Or is it slow and depressed, heavy with burdens,
lacking in lio|>e?
•
If it’s in the first state, congratulations are in order.
And a caution not to be too elate, but to keep the head
cool and steady and keep a'going.
If it ’s in the s«jcoud, a stiffening of the baokbonc is in
order. There is no excuse for an adult to lie.foolish about
his finances. His own morals arid bis own happiness, as
well as those of bis family and bis community and the
world at large, are tied up in the matter of his self res|»ect-
ing management of his money.
If It’s the tl^rd — take heart of grace. Spring’s here!
Cast off old shackles. Get a fresh start. Past labor is not
unavailing, eyen if it seems so. After planting and culti
vating there is often a weary wait before results show.
But they do in time.
If it’s your family’s extravagance that is grinding
yon down, treat ’em rough. Be frank and firm.

But before the finished picture
