All members are asked to attend the session. And so we went to the DOGS IT NEVER occurred to o in efficiency men our execu tivesour public relations peo ple. But one day along came a customer with a suggestion. For many motorists who are .dog-lovers, it would be a con venience if means were pro vided at service stations where traveling pets could drink. "Go to the ant," says the proverb, suggesting improve ment. In this instance it seemed better to go to the dogs. Drink ing pans for four-footed mo torists immediately appeared in all Standard Stations another of innumerable services born of a customer's remark. For example, fender and steering-gear covers were pro vided on all lubrication jobs when a customer said "Why not keep them spotless?" Road maps, information booklets, a hundred other things have a character shaped by suggestions from the people who use them. Our organization is such that a suggestion made to a station salesman is as valid as one made to the board of directors. It goes straight to the men who issue the orders. These are not desk-bound big-wigs; lost in their own importance, but men who realize that the interests of the public and the Company meet naturally when a car rolls into a station and the attendant says "Shall I fill the tank, sir?"
