Always Keep a Confidante

can never again make con fidante of my mother" said a lovely young girl to me last sum mer. "I once told her something of vital importance to me, but shortly afterwards l chanced to overhear her laughing about it with some of her friends wbo were calling that day. Alas, for mothers who stoop to this un- worthy thing Little wonder that T would rather tell anyone but mother is the not uncommon confession of these sensitive young beings
 It seems to me that if conf dence be given into our honorable keeping, from any source whatso- ever, 1t should drop down into Ohl hitlhOliSSY dS obOuc uIOpS into well, to lie there unsus- pected by anyone until he who has placed it there returns for it- unprecedented. Neither by look, word, nor allusion, should you betray consciousness of your trust, Though others may come to you and try to talk about 1t, you are still under honorable bonds not to be- tray previous knowledge of it. And this secrecy includes the child's father, also. You have no moral right to reveal his little secret even to this trusted friend. It is therefore wise, when listen ing to the child's confidence, to ask permission to include father in it, but if this is denied you, you should abide by the decision.

Licking Valley courier. [volume] (West Liberty, Ky.) 19??-current, 1912-10-10

The West Liberty Courier
thinks Morgan county will have
a railroad soon because the coun-
ty IS on a direct line from the
Elkhorn coal fields to Cincinnati.
There is an even better reason
than this in the fact that Morgan
county has enough resources of
her own to justify the building
of a railroad. Morgan county has
coal, both camel and bituminous,
and she has proved oil territory
and othermineral wealth. There
is a great field for development
in that region and with )the in
crease Of railroads and industries
in Eastern Kentucky so promis-
ing a place for invetment cannot
be much longer overlooked.

A GUSHER
We'll at Camel City Proves to
Be a Rich Oil Strike

From reliable sources we learn
nat the oil we'll at Camel City
Vas bailed last Friday, Oct. 4th,
= rather they began to bail, but
The we'll began to cut antics like
F"Old faithful" the noted geyser
lin Yellowstone Park, and the bail
fers had to take to- othe timber to
keep from being deluged with
Ioil. The we'll flowed three times
between 5 O'Clock p. m. and
midnight, The intention of the
parties was to-bail out the well
gand drill deeper in the oil-bearing
sand, but the flow of oil was so
strong that this was impossible.
They succeeded in tanking about
twelve barrels and- then de-
cided not to.do anything further
Il" " : i ]
until their pumping outfit arrives
which will be within a few days,
then the work Of storing will be-
gin in earnest.
The oil stands, when not dis
turbed, about twelve or thirteen
hundred feet deep in the well
and is free from salt water. 1t
is a fine quality Of green oil and
shows'to be at least a $50 barrel
well./ This statement is based
upon information gotten, not
from the owners of the we'll, who
are very reticent, but from per-
sons who are in position to know
the exact facts and.who ilaHe had
sufficient experience in the oil
business to know whereof they
speak. That this is one of the
very best wells ever drilled in
Kentucky there is not the SHAH
ow of a doubt, and that means
only the beginning Of oil develop
ment in Morgan county.
