Following pneumonia his left lung was greatly affected, so much so that his condition was very critical, physicians saying, after an examination, that he might possibly not live until they could get him to a hospital.

bere Sunday, Oct 10, 2:30. A Vision of the People's Good his issue of September 22, Mr. H. A. Sturges, Editor of the Republic of Beresford, S.

prints the following editorial: "The Republic has carried for a long time a series of messages in the form of advertisements, ordered and paid for by the Standard Oil Company (Indiana). There is a notion on the part of many that everything that a corporation does is of a selfish nature, and that there never is a vision of the people's good. These messages have carried an entirely different tone, and we believe they are worth reading from week to week. The data this week is very interesting." This recognition of the sincere effort which the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) has put forth through these advertisements to inform the public as to its purposes, policies and ideals, is gratifying. In the opinion of the seven Directors of this organization, the business of this Company should be, and is, an open book.

The Standard Oil Company (Indiana) is an institution performing an essential service in a highly specialized branch of industry. This Company is owned by 21,188 individuals, not one of whom owns as much as 10 percent of the capital stock. The management of this Company centers about seven men, who constitute the Board of Directors. Each one is a specialist in one or more branches of the petroleum industry, and devotes all of his time to the business and affairs of this Company. Not one of the Directors has inherited his job; he has earned it.

Individually, and collectively, the Board of Directors believes that the business in which this Company is engaged is so vital, so important to the commercial and domestic life of all the people of the eleven states it serves, that they have caused to be published this series of advertisements, that the people may know how the business is being conducted. Further, the 25,000 men and women who make up this organization are putting forth such enthusiastic, painstaking efforts to do a good job for the Company, and in turn, for the people, that the Directors are glad to tell the public what is being done. Through these advertisements they are giving an account of their trusteeship to the people frequently, as they do to the stockholders annually. This is the purpose of this campaign of advertisements, on which the publisher of the Beresford Republic has seen fit to comment favorably. Standard Oil Company (Indiana) 910 So.
