The Prague Record has the follow
ing TO say in regard 10 the oil situation
down that way:
you can never tell what a day
Will bring forth. In the oil line II
may be a dry hole or II may be a
Rusher or it may be more drilling.
However, be that as it may, there Is
AT present on the faces of some, who
are I'm a position to know, smiles that
extend from ear TO ear and you can
tell just by looking at them, that
there's something up And there is.
A gentleman connected with a big oil
company AT Bakersfield, Calf, has
been here several days this week, and
has secured, so II is reported,
valuable tract Of land embracing in
the ncighbOrhood OF 100 or l,20O
acres, perhaps more, for the purpose
of putting down a test well. The loca-
tion has been made, so ii is alleged,
and ii Is close, very close to Prague.
An attorney foI tho company is eX-
pected to arrive i'm Prague tonight or
tomorrow TO draw up the necessary
papers, and tho gentleman who Sc
cured the options is now on his road

all its own, in the shape Of a bluff,
but will it work?
AS has been stated before I'm the
columns of the Record, the big com
panies always wait until the smaller
fellows bring in a few wells before
they get busy and II will be this way
IN the Prague field. Had the drillcr

Services were held in every Hebrew

Jewish calendar. The most elaborate
ceremony was held by the Washington
Hebrew Congregation. in the Eighth

mon delivered a stirring sermon on The
Revolving Wheel"
Rabbi Simon pictured the world as a
gigantic wheel, on which the human be-
ings are constantly being whirled around.
He warned the people against striving
for worldly power-which is the top of
the wheel-as they would soon find them
selves at the bottom again, in the un-
ceasing whirl of the wheel
In referring to the gifts which the
people were asking Of God for the com
ing year. the rabbi entreated them to
ask for the higher gift. namely. the
salvation of their souls, rather than for
temporal favors.
The services opened with the chanting

OF the Germans must be ten times as

to their old habit OF attacking in close
formation"
The officer was Of the opinion that none
OF the troops could continue the fight
much longer at the existing pressure
The Germans and the allies have now
been fighting almost continuously for
more than three weeks, very often both
day and night. The losses en- both sides
have been very heavy and the men have
been called upon TO perform feats OF al
most superhuman endurance. nc said.
