A dark horse runs your HORSELESS CARRIAGE FROM start to finish of an active career, gasoline leatis t life of seclusion unequalled even by a storybook spy or international hermit. You can't thump it like a watermelon or feel it like cloth. Actually, you seldom so much as see it. As oil comes up from the depths it goes unseen into field gathering tanks, thence to cen tral storage where it takes to a pipeline leading either to a tank farm which serves a re finery or to a tankship and then on to a refinery. To the eye a refinery is an impressive mass of machinery. But you never see the gasoline, lubri cants and what-not that ma chinery is making. From the refinery finish gasoline takes another enclosed junket from tank to tank. You don't see it pumped into the tank of your car. You don't sec it do its stuff inside the cylinder walls. Though you've followed it from the well you've seen less of it than you'd see of a dark horse at midnight. Fact is, when you buy gas. line you buy a dark horse. Yoi. buy it on trust. You buy, really, a name. A company must liv right when it leads the field in sales of a commodity whose ma jor ingredient is confidence Standard Oil Compan of California Mary Davis Champion Team Members Feted at Large Dinner The Washington school football players who composed the champion team of the city, and their fathers were honored guests at a recent ban quet given by the mothers of the team.
