Attracts Over
"Pint-size" refineries help us keep
gasoline prices low
Folks who like a bargain don't have to look
any farther than the gas tanks of their cars.
For despite a steady increase in quality,
gasoline prices have remained low and
Standard Oil Company of California's
table-top refineries are one good reason why.
They are pint-size laboratory pilot plants
that enable our scientists to develop cost
cutting manufacturing methods for each
new gasoline before we put it into produc
tion. With the aid of these rubber and glass
forerunners of multi-million gallon refin
eries, we've worked with car manufacturers
to perfect balanced gasolines designed to
bring out more efficiency and economy from
today's higher compression engines.
We've learned how to squeeze more gaso
line from crude oil and we've found ways to
make increasingly better gas at consistently
low prices. Today's gasoline, for example,
is 50 better than motor fuels of 1925, yet
costs just a few pennies more.
The combination of research and compe
tition has held gasoline prices down so effec
tively that they've advanced only 17
(ex-taxes) since 1925 while general living
costs are up 52. Even though our pint
size refineries make gasoline by the drop,
they are one reason why Standard products
give you a longer run for your money.

Kite Flying Safety
Rules Emphasized
Simple safety rules can in
crease the fun of kite flying and
at the same time prevent danger
to youngsters this ancient sport,
according to T. M. Keenan, dis
trict manager for Pacific Power &
Light company.
He urged boys and girls to ob
serve these four rules:
1. Always fly kites in an open
field or playground, well away
from power lines.
2. Use only dry cord for kite
line.
3. Never use wet string or
metal threads for kite line.
These are conductors of electric
ity and can bring about a serious
shock from accidental contract
with overhead wires.
4. If a kite should lodge in a
power line, or in a tree near the
power wires, leave it there. Don't
try to take it down. Skilled power
linemen never take chances with
live wires neither should you.
