Miss Marguerite Luman sang two songs, accompanied at the piano by Kenneth Raymond. Both were very well received by the audience. Earl Miller was program chair man for the evening. Closing time for loo Lata to Clas If; Ada la 1:30 p m. Progress just won't let an artery harden WE'D LIKE you to meet an old friend of ours named Progress a constant compan ion who helps keep us young. With Progress around, there's Bo chance to sit down in the old rocking-chair and take a nap. Of this we'll give you an illustration. Only recently we thought our refining methods were ev ery one right up to the latest tick of the clock and they were. But along came Progress with a new way to produce gasoline from certain petrole umby using something chem ists call a catalyst This long had been a theory. Suddenly it was a fact. Prog ress would have occasioned no greater surprise had he popped up with perpetual motion, the man in the moon, and a cure for the common cold. Yet the catalyst process . . , several of them in fact . . . already has taken its place in our refineries. Its growth will depend on the degree in which it fulfills its promise to make the nation's oil reserves go farther. The point is that the extensive build ing and rebuilding involved in its adoption is perpetual mo tion with us. Such development has gone on forever unfin ished since our beginning. Otherwise we'd still be selling whale-oil.
