You wear a suit woven from oil, 'J drive on tires born in a refinery, whisk over asphalt super-highways, read about kerosene-powered planes that crack the sound barrier. And you live in a West undreamed of by those 1879'ers who formed the Company from which Standard grew. What lies ahead? If the past is any clue, oil will be saving you more work and money, improving your transportation and putting more luxury in your living. And Standard will continue to play a big part in this progress as we follow our 75-year tradition of planning ahead to serve you and the nation better. ivinff short book reviews at the School Monday morning were; Mrs. Roland Bergxtrom to the 1st and 2nd grades; Mrs. Roy l.ind strorr, to the 3rd and 4th grades; Mrs. Charles O'Connor to the 5th and Cth grades; Mrs. Sam McMil lan to the 7th and St h grades Once in a groat while, because of storms or other emergencies, a telephone central of fice may be cut oil from its usual source of electric power. But this doesn't interrupt telephone service. In your cent ral office are special electric gener ators, run by gasoline or diesel engines. And they take over the job of charging the large storage batter ies that supply the current to run the telephone system. Planning ahead for emergencies is another way we make sure you have dependable, low-cost telephone service when you need it.

Coast-to-coast calls cost only 250 plus tax Just think you can call clear across the country for just $2.50 plus tax. This is the day station rate for the first 3 minutes. Calls over shorter distances to Chi cago, Salt Lake City, etc., cost less. Still lower rates ap ply for all calls on Sundays and after6p.rn.on weekdays. How you can enjoy even better telephone service If yours is a party-line, you will receive even better serv ice by following these simple points: When you have a series of calls to make, take time out between them. This gives other people a chance to reach you. Before you call, make sure the line is clear. And in cases where someone else has to make an emer gency call while you're talk ing, the thoughtful thing is to hang up and call back later.
