Both refine Union Oil products. The one was an experiment
of fearless oil pioneers—the other, which now turns out Union
Gasoline and Aristo Motor Oil—is the result of research and
development covering four decades.
"VT" OU say that you can’t tell the
difference in gasoline—that
Is, that the difference is so slight
that it is hard to distinguish it.
But there is a difference in good
gasolines. And there is a way in
which you can judge the fuel you
give your motor.
You can find out how long and
how well it has stood the test of
the years.
Time has a habit of weeding
out all the unprogressive, ineffi
cient things which cannot “make
the grade.”
An article has to be good to
Stand the test of time.
And this is true of non-deto
nating Union Gasoline.
Wheta you buy Union Oil
products you get
confidence from
the knowledge that
Union has been re
fining since the first
refineries on the
Coast turned out gas
oline for thp first
crude automobiles
over twenty-five
years ago.
Even before that, when the ftw
struggling California plants were
not making gasoline Union Oil
Company were refiners of kero*
sene and naptha, the popular
commodities of pre-auto days.
The first refinery in the West
was a crude little one still affair
built by the Hardison and Stewart
Company (which a few years
later became Union Oil Com
pany) at Santa Paula in 1887.
Almost forty years ago—and
now there are seven huge Union
Oil refineries. In each of them
scientists and chemists are ever at
work with painstaking care test
ing each step in the process of
refining.
These four decades of research
secure ior you me
greatest improvement
in the quality of the
gasoline that is avail*
able for you from the
grey and red pumps of
Union Oil Company,
a company whose
main aim and greatest
wish is to serve you to
the best of its ability.

PREFERENCES
“Gentlemen Prefer Blondes” is
the title of a book that has sold
well for two years. We haven’t
read it so don’t know whether the
preference is for blondes born that
way or for blondes of the synthetic
type.
It’s funny about these “uplifters.”
Recently a self appointed body of
’em got together in Chicago to
frame another motion picture cen
sorship. Why all this censorship?
In the long run it means suppres
sion and intolerance. The Ameri
can people—as a body—should up
lift these uplifters.
HITTING THE RIGHT TRAIL
The road to mediocrity is down
grade and easy to travel. The road
to big things, accomplishment and
success is upgrade, oft time rocky
and hard to find footing on. Which
road are you going to hike along?
JUST GAS
How long can we have gasoline?
Last year the automobiles, alone,
consumed close to 800 millions of
gallons of the explosive liquid. That
is quite a pond if you stop to think
of it, and it’s a pond that, some
day, will dry up.
CONSTITUTIONAL DIVERSIONS
It comes natural for some folk
to want to "bust” the Constitution
of Mexico. They’ve been jabbing
their own home constitution full of
holes for such a lengthy. stretch of
time that it’s hardly a diversion to
jump across the line in an en
deavor to tear up the fundamental
laws of our neighbor.
JUST WEATHER
We have all sorts of rain in Pe
tersburg. In fact nearly as much
moisture as falls in Ketchikan or
Juneau, but we aren’t in it at all
with Cherrapungi, India, where 457
inches of rain comes down every
year. It is the dampest place on
earth outside the bottom of the
ocean.
JUSTICE
Andy Krozh for selling liquor
which resulted in the death of an
Indian woman at Pybus Bay this
summer receives a sentence of nine
months and a fine of $250.
Capt. Balch, for manslaughter,
gets a short term—not to exceed
three years.
Northwestern Fisheries convicted
violating the fishing laws and rob
bing the country of $30,000. worth
jot fish pays a fine of $400.
I Walter McCall, for alleged rob
, blng of a Heckman trap near Ketch
l ikan and getting four hundred dol
lars worth of fish is sentenced to
three years in the penetentiary.
BONFIRE OF FURS
I A bonfire of furs was* a novelty
| recently adopted by employees of
the Alaska Game Commission at
Juneau. The burned furs consist
ed of 255 muskrat skins and 1 mink
skin which had been seized and for
1 feited in the course of law enforce
ment in the Territory. The skins
were so unprime as to be worthless
and entirely unfit to be placed on
the market.
| Chairman Gardner of the Game
‘ Commission and Mr. Walker, Execu
j tive Officer of the Commission, eeti
| mate that these skins would have
'been worth about $400. according
to the present market prices If they
had all been in prime condition.
They stated that it is a serious eco
nomic loss to the community for
; trappers to take such worthless
skins when they would be valuable
if the animals were allowed to live
a month longer.
These skins were only a portion
of those which had been obtained in
law enforcement work. All skins
which are in a satsifactory condi
tion to place on the market are be
ing advertised to be sold at public
i auction at the Commission Offices
on October 21.
There were aditional skins which
had no commercial value as furs
but whiclT were of scientific value.
These were sent to the Bureau of
Biological Survey for their study
collections.
