We pay them liberally in brine-shrimp, no salary deductions. If s all because we use millions of gallons of water daily in our refineries. After use, it is treated with algae, bacteria, chemicals, sunshine and oxygen, to make sure the water is clean and pure when we return it to stream or sea. As an ultimate safeguard, we tet oar Sticklebacks test the water, before it is released. If they like it, we know it will be happy water for any fish. The object is to keep our streams and coastal watera pollution-free with abundant fish to nibble your hooks, and clean playgrounds for your water sports. Many other industries which depend upon water are equally careful. Our common concern is to protect a priceless heritage. Planning ahead to serve you better STANDARD OIL COMPANY OF CALIFORNIA
