harmless and doesn't burn the skin.

College was selected as the meeting
place for the second conference. 1t
was also definitely decided to make
of it an annual event. As one geolo-
gist expressed it, the geology de-
partment of the University of Okla
homa has started a movement that
the oil interests of the state should
welcome and show all possible inter
est in" Prof. c, II. Taylor, head OF
the geology department Of the state
university, and c. w. shannon, direc-
tor of the Oklahoma Geological Sur
vey, were elected members of an ex-
ecutive committee of five, which Will
have complete charge of next years
conference. These two members ap-
point the other three.
Charles n. Gould, formerly director
of the Oklahoma Geological Survey
and now consulting geologist of Ok
lahoma City, appeared twice on the
program, giving in his chief address
history of geological work in the
state. Mr.. Gould was among the first
to foresee the wonderful oil resources
of the state.
While those problems were discuss,
ed which have special application
to conditions in the oil fields of Okla
homa, topics from many other coun-
tries were given a place on the con
ference program. f. l.. DeGolyer.
chief geologist for the Pearson OIL
Syndicate of London, who has work
ed extensively in Mexico and located
one of the largest oil wells in the
world, the famous gusher near Tam
pico, told assembled geologists Of
the peculiar formation in which the
petroleum of the country south is
found, and of the nature Of the oil
now being developed there.
Among discussions that attracted
attention was that by Adam Wroblew-
ski of Tulsa, a German geologist VINO

He spoke on "The Relation of Sa-
Unity to the Amount Of Water in Oil
Sands"
A. w. Mccoy, recently resigned
member of the geology faculty of
the State University sprang sur
prise in scientific circles by advanc-
ing the theory that anticlines might
be the result of the presence Of oil
instead of the result of other forces.
He showed by means of layers OF
sands. clays, etc, in glass jar that
capillary action in connection with
petroleum and water would produce
a force sufficient to force the upper
layers into the form of anticlines.
