Clara Mary Davis who had spent the week end visiting the Espeys. The Espeys formerly resided here and left several months ago to make their home in Prineville. v 28 jobs are part of his school days ' ALTHOUGH it's not our pur. A pose to outspread Horatio Alger, Jr., that kingpin sweet-nesj-and-light spreader, it be comes necessary to revise a story told some months ago about an employee who started out rolling barrels in a ware house and held 27 jobs before he "arrived." For our hero has moved up to Job No. 28 as Company treasurer. Now somebody may arise in the back of the house and ask "What's that to me, Joe Doakes in person?" Thank you very much, Mr. Doakes. Your query is right to the point. Doubtless you will agree that, however specialized his present post, a man with 27 other well-done jobs under his belt has learned something about the oil bus!- Nearly every executive in our organization has personal knowledge of the other fel low's problems gained in other jobs, other departments, other elds. For Standard this means more efficiency, more under standing, more ease of opera tion all along the line. For you it means better gasoline. On old-time school desks it used to be cast in enduring iron that "Knowledge is Power." Be cause of a long-standing policy of promotion, this Company puts knowledge into its prod ucts ... a knowledge which, where you want it so, comes to you as power.
