STATE EXPERIMENT WELL
MAKES SLOW PROGRESS

William Thomas, who is driving
the S-inch state experiment well in
the north end of Cedar Valley, is only
down 200 feet The 200 feet has all
been in big cobble rock making the
progress very difficult and SLOW as
the boulders have to be mashed with
a drill before they can be gotten out
and the remaining ones bind tightly
on the pipe. The bottom of the cas-
ing has to be kept close to the bottom
of the hole in order to make any pro
gress at all.
Several years ago the state drove
q coo foot well in the south end OF
Cedar Valley and the entire distance
was in solid clay. In that same To-
callty a surface well was dug 800 IT,
and the clay was so solid that 1t was
unnecessary to use any casing at all

Today's Poem

GLIMPSES
Life comes to us only in glimpses;
We see it not yet as a whole,
For the vapor, the cloud and the
shadow
That over it surging roll;
For the diminess of mortal vision
That mingles the false with the
true;
Yet its innermost fathomless mean
ing
Is never quite hidden from view.
The hills lift aloft the glad secret;
1t is breathed by the whispering
leaves;
The rivers repeat it in music;
The sea with its harmony heaves;
The secret of that living gospel
Which freshened the veins of the
earth,
When Love, named in heaven the Re
deemer,
Was revealed in human birth.
Life shows us its grandeur by
glimpses;
For what is this wondrous To-Day
But a rift in the mist-muffled vast
ness
><~4Sf surrounding eternity! @'s1 4
One law for this hour and far flu
lures;
One light on the distant and near,
The bliss of the boundless hereafter
Pulses into the brief moments here
The secret of lif6--it is giving;
To minister and to serve;
Loves law binds the man to the
angel,
And ruin befalls if we swerve.
There are breadths of celestial hori-
IONS
Overhanging the commonest way;
The clod and the star share the glory,
And to breathe is an ecstasy.
Life dawns on us, wakes us, by
glimpses;
In heaven there is opened door
That flash lit up vistas eternal;
The dead are the living once more!
To illumine the scroll Of creation,
One swift, sudden vision sufficed;
Every riddle of life worth the read
ing
Has found its interpreter-Christ!
Lucy Lorcom.

ALL U. S. BEGINS AUTO
MOBILE TOUR ON AUG 6

The greatest organized automobile
travel this country has ever seen is
assured for National Touring Week.
the remarkable movement that is pro-
noting a general starting on vacation
automobile trips August 9Th by the
motorists of this country.
The idea of an official automobile
tour participated in by every motorist
who can make his vacation coincide
with the week of August 9th has grip
ped the interest of the owners of mo-
tor cars through the land. The early
momentum the movement has gained,
has surprised the originators of the
idea. All Americans who think of
automobiles and vacations in the same
breath are thinking with the red let
ter date august 9Th" branded on the
thought.
The automobile trade and automo-
| bile clubs have enlisted in the move
ment, and are driving it ahead with
their characteristic force. Newspap-
ers sensing the popular appeal of sc
novel an outing, are hurrying its de
velopment along.
That American motorists should
spend their vacations in their auto
mobiles on the road is common sense
That as many of them should at
tempt to do so on an official touring
week is merely on efficient method OF
arousing the nation TO seeing Ameri-
1 ca now.
The organization of National Tour
/ ing Week is neglecting no depart
ment or phase of this nationwide mo-
toring outing. Hotels are being slim
luated to provide for the week, and
they are making extra preparations
to care for the exceptional travel al
that time. Supply dealers are
strengthing their organizations to
meet the demands of the greatest CO.
incident mileage they have ever fac
| ed.
"See America first by seeing your
own state first" is the sentiment
back of this national outing a-wheel
Coupled with it is the reminder to the
motorist that the finest vacation Of
fered him is the one nearest--a vaca-
ton tour Of his own state in his own
/ car.
| The average automobilist knows
less about the beauty and natural
wonders Of his own state than any
other part of his country, notwith-
standing the fact that, whatever his
state, spots of picturesque charm are
hidden without number within a rad
JUS of hundred miles of his garage
With road map and an intelligent
eye for guide posts, he may link them
on circuit that will stand forth as
the tour of his life.
The motorist who fails to tune ur
his car for the week Of August 9th is
jeopardizing the full joy Of his va
cation.

Tempting Salads

n
One of the important things TO re-
member in preparing a salad is to
have a good dressing. If oil is used
1t is not economy to buy anything
but the best for poor oil will spoil

which is said to injure it. At any
rate it is easy to give it the benefit
of the doubt.
