When it was learned that Rupert
Brooke, young English poet, had
died in the Aegean, there was ma
tural inquiry for his poetry from
many who might otherwise never
have heard of him But while a de-
mand for his work may have been
artificlally stimulated for a time by
his tragic death, it is one that will
continue because of the value of the
poetry itself Although under thirty
years OF age he had written poetry
which is worthy to rank with the best
of contemporary verse. The poem,
"The Soldier" is the finest poem pro-
duced by the war and it may be as
signed a permanent place among the
English sonnets.
Young men who wish to go to col
lege but do not have the money for
current expenses and who for this
reason are afraid to strike out boldly

MINERAL WATER OUT
OF This OIL WELL

David L. Levy has Just returned
from a visit to the Isle of Wight, near
Ocean City, Md, where he has been
inspecting the properties and develop
ments Of the Isle of Wight Oil Com
pany, of which he is president. Mr..
Levy is highly pleased with the ac-
tiYities on the island, which is not
far from Ocean City, Md.
Following up the impression that
oil exists in pools beneath the sur
face of the part Of the Eastern Shore
of Maryland, the company Of which
Mr.. Levy is at the head, a year or
two ago started sinking a well on the
Isle OF Wight. After the pipe had
been driver about $500 feet in the
middle Of the island, oil-streaked
water came TO the surface. The well
was plugged and Captain Anthony f.
Lucas, an expert who discovered the
greatest oil wells in the Beaumont
Texas field, was engaged by Mr.
Levy to make an examination as to
the possibilities for obtaining pay
ing oil on the island. While he
found traces OF oil in the well al
ready sung, Captain Lucas expressed
the opinion that if oil pools worth
while we're found, they would be
under the section toward the end Of
the island known as Indian Hill.
James e. Nevin, an expert of Youngs'
town, Ohio, after an examination later
on, expressed the same opinion.
The well already sunk was plugged
again. and drilling was started at
Indian Hill, where a we'll 1900 feet

Mr.. Lew sent samples of the wate

dicating that it may equal the bes

country. Expert analysts are making
tests of later samples taken from tn

be Interested in a collection o. verse
called, Little Book Of American
Poets 17S7-19OO," compiled by Jessie

In the book, some OF which will live

conditions existing at the time they
were written. They are not all the

flowers or one Of vegetables, or maybe
both. At the library there is already
a demand for garden books; a de-
mand which will increase till full
summer is here and gradually die
down as autumn approaches. Garden
books are bought each year. but sell
