.A. FEW Standard Oil Service Stations are “boarded up.”
Pumps are empty, drives vacant... the boys have gone to war.
Wherever such a scene of inaction may have replaced
the busy corner of a short time ago, accept it as evidence
that many men of this Company have changed their uni
forms for a while.
Not far away you will fmd another Standard Oil
Station—open, busy, trustworthy—worth going an extra
distance to find. If not all Stations in your locality can
overcome the “man-power” question, please understand
that we strive to keep standards high—too high to permit
indifferent operation.
Soon, we hope, conditions will favor and make possi
ble old-time operation. Until then let the Station that is
“closed fer a while” be a signal to you that Standard Oil
men aiC in the thick of the fight.

The tiny jockey married a womaafl
at least twice his weight. After the
ceremony he asked some of the
guests to drop over to hia flat. The
best man looked doubtful.
“Thanks, Sammy,” he said, “but
after all it’s kind of late. Maybe
your wife wouldn’t approve of com
pany at this hour.”
The jockey shrugged.
“Oh, I don’t expect you chaps tt>
stay long,” he explained. “All I f
want is for you to help me carry
the bride across the threshold.”'
BROKE THE ICE

i He—ls this your first plunge thi»
1 year?
She—No, I got married in Janu*-
ary.
No Compliment
Cooking was the young wife’s hob
by, and what she lacked in skill sl>
made up in zeal.
One day, when a neighbor’s small
boy ran an errand for her, she re
warded him with a generous piece of'
jam tart which she had made withe
her own fair hands.
A few minutes later the youngster)
was back again. i
“Thank you very much for thet
jam,” he said, with shy politeness
“Here’s your bit of board back!”
Their Hard Luck
He was one of (hose fathers who
believed in trying to answer any
questions put by his son. So lie diidi
his best when the youngster asked:
“What are ancestors, daddy?”
“Well, my boy,” he replied, ‘Tm>
one of your ancestors, and youir
grandfather is another.”
A puzzled frown marred the child
ish brow.
“Then, daddy, why do people brag
about them?”
Or Hamburger
Once upon a time a bicycle accost
ed a horse. “Get off the earth?**'
said the bicycle. "I am going tow
supplant you entirely.” The horse
smiled. "Nay, nay,” it rejoined
gently; “they can’t make canned
; corn beef out of you.”
