THE WORKERS RETURNING
(By Wilbur D. Nesbit. }

THE suns final splendor is burning
flame on the forge of the west,
When come all the workers returning,
Each worn from his separate quest.
They come from the clash and the clamor
Of factory, structure and street,
All day have the sledge and the hammer
Kept time with their rhythmical beat
THE workers, broad-breasted and brawny,
With hair lying sleek in the sweat,
With faces and shoulders all tawny-
And all Of the world in their debt,
They fare to the uttermost regions,
They delve in the depths of the earth
The lealest and loyalest legions
That give to the world of their worth
THE dreamers may dream, but the doors
Must change all the dreams into deeds
The foremen, the drillers, the hewers,
Forever are filing our needs
And in their returning, their laughter
Is sturdy and stanch as their toll,
AS stout as the beam or the rafter
Of girder or truss where they MOL.
IT'S they that have spanned by their labor
The desert, the plain and the sea;
IT'S they that made you nelghbor
To all the strange peoples that be.
And who shall have pride at the ending
Of dreaming and planning and deed?
Whose striving shall need no defending,
And who shall go straight to his need!
FOR some are the lump, some the leaven
That gives it the breath and the life
Then thew shall march bold into heaven,
The men that face stresses and strife.
The stars round the gate shall be burning
AS blazes the sun in the west,
When home come the workers returning,
Each worn from his separate quest

OFFICIALS RETURN
FROM THE FIELDS
INDIAN COMMISSIONER AND OIL
EXPERTS, PRODUCERS AND
SCRlBES VISIT HEALDTON.
(By C. NJ. Sarchet)

For the purpose of demonstrating
to Cato Sells, commissioner of Indian
Affairs, and Lieut.. j. o. Richardson,
U. s. n, that the Healdton oil field
should have some relief in the way
of national legislation and also that
the government-owned pipe line should
be constructed through this field, a
committee of Independent producers
accompanied Sells, Richardson and
party to Healdton today. They came to
Ringing by special train over the
Ringing railroad, and then went in
automobiles to the field. f. L. Sample
an oil engineer of New York, who
passes upon the estimates made Of
the probable cost of the government
pipe line, attorney r. j. Hall, Of the
Indian department, and Paul 7. Hoff-
man, the commissioners stenographer,
are also with the official party.
All portions of the producing field
were visited and investigated. The
party witnessed here something not
seen in the other fields visited oil
wells spouting. Four of them threw oil
into the air from one hundred to one
hundred and thirty-fve feet high. They
also witnessed immense quantities of
waste oil burning in Bayou creek,
heavy columns of smoke marking the
creek for miles One hundred and fif-
ty thousand barrels of crude oil have
recently because of lack of pipe line
been lost in Bayou and other creeks
facilities. Also at the present time
there are four hundred thousand bar
rels of oil in tankage in the field,
sixty per cent of it in earthen tanks,
awaiting transportation to market.
One earthen tank. just completed on
the Mutual Benefit companys lease,
will hold two hundred thousand bar
rels This is by far the biggest tank
in the field.
Commissioner Sells was supplied
with data, showing there are PIP pro-
ducing wells in Healdton, eighteen 9TH
ers on the sand, fifteen rigs built and
forty additional locations made. The
fields total output is about forty thou
sand barrels daily, and the Magnolia
pipe line company is taking but eight
thousand per day, for which they pay
50 cents a barrel, a cut within 60 days
from S1.O5 a barrel. Since the depre-
citation started, drilling has been cur
