MF.DFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD. ORECiOX. THURSDAY. TUNE 23, OT. PAGE THREE To Increuw Marine Corpt WASHINGTON, Juiu 33. (API President Roosevelt has signed a bill I Increasing the number of first class ' privates In the marine corps from 3.847 to 4.715. Even Solomon would say ((I Don't Know" SOME OF THE questions asked tilling station attend ants would stump a conven tion of college professors . . . "What happened to that moun tain?". . ."Do you think the baby has measles?". . ."How did they happen to put the state line there?'" Yet you and millions of other motorists can travel safely and conveniently in fresh, new, un familiar corners of the land because station attendahts know all the answers or most of them, at least. "Do we have to detour?". . . "Any snow in the pass?'... "What's this we hear about a washout?". . ."How's fishing in the Upper Fork?". . ."How long will it take us to make ' this side-trip?" The filling station has be come the greatest reservoir of travel information in the world. Every answer the attendant gives must be accurate and right up to the last tick of the clock. Often that means long re search and effort by Standard " of California. For example, the development and constant re vision of road-maps available at every Standard station or dealer is almost an industry in itself. In sixteen years this Com pany has provided so many road-maps that like a round trip to the farthest star the number is almost beyond com prehension. To be exact 18, 306,000. Try that one on your adding-machine one at a time.
