OIL MARKET QUOTATIONS.
No Truth in RunOr

There has been rumor in circu-

ing crude from the Magnolia Petro-
leum company, which in turn has
been devoting its energies to the pro-
duction Of fuel oil for the govern
ment and has also been specializing
Oh Healdton ana Gulf Coast crude.
There is a lot Of high grade Gushing
crude that is therefore available. and
Cosden n Co. are taking all but 900
barrels per day, the rest going to the

These wells were connected up to
the Cosden line some three weeks ago
and no mention oft was made, for no
particular reason but that it was a

used to wish could see a girl like
Tess" especially before the picture
was taken. while We were up in tho
new picture ! always like really to
try and make believe l am Just that kind
of girl but Tess was hard to find.
And while we were taking it. I had P
letter from a girl friend who was with
a Georgia company.
"We found Tess yesterday" she wrote.
"Hou would have loved he". Mary IL
was about six miles out of Macon. right
in the heart of the pine woods. And the
Georgia pines grow so straight and tan
without a lot OF low branches or under =
brush TO close your view in. We walked
from our camp along great quiet aisles.
full of a golden gloom. 1t was indes-
crihably impressive. Just like going into
one of the old-world cathedrals. Ana
all along the roadway were passion
flowers trailing over the ground. han
never seen them before. But this girl
was the real flower OF the pines.
We came to a clearing right In the
heart of the woods and found man or
about fifty working on a house. He was
the regular mountaineer type. just IKE
Tess's father, and up on a homemade
ladder was Tess herself. hammering
away for dear life. She wore oiue
and white gingham apron, taoed ana
torn and was barefooted Her curls
fell heavily around her face, ana sn.
scowled down at US as intruders anu
natural enemies.
Don't YOU have nuthin' to do with
them, pop" she warned, as some OF the
men started questioning him. Don
have nuthin' to do with nobody.
But pop was more communicative. lie
said he'd started in building new shack
Because the old one had sort of Jes' Jam
med under all to oncet.' And Fan. she
was pretty handy with hammer ana
nails, so she liked to work along with
him. it being her house, too. Her motner
was buried up in the woods in a lttle
rude lot fenced around with careful hands
and some of the passion flowers trans
planted to cover the mound. Pop showed
it to us, little proudly, for 1t was ms
work. but Fan had put in the flowers tie
said they never had been church folks
and nobody knew when she died, and
none of her folks had ever come to visit
them so he just buried her there under
the tall pines she had loved. and Fan
sang a hymn over it. l wish 1t had been
Rescue the Pershing' That would have
heen the finishing touch to our discovered
Tess, but it wasn't. Pop said he'd most
forgotten what she had sung now. but
most likely it was 'Beulah Land as that
was her favorite. I'm sending you snap
shot of the place and Fan on the ladder.
She wouldn't turn her head no matter
how much we begged. and scorned us ut
terly."
DO you know, loved that little picture.
1t was only a small one. unmounted. but
there was the half finished shack built
of pine timbers. its skeleton half erected.
and on a ladder was the figure Of girl
in big apron, her bare feet showing.
and a tangled mass of curls. In every
line Of tbs, shoulders and averted head
there was the silent defiance and resent
ment at this invasion OF their privacy.
All the time that we were taking

of fi"tsam on life's high tide Of trouble.
But now I caught the other side of Tess.
She was proud and resentful of outside
curiosity. So I tried to show that in
her nature. And looking back now,
can't help but think was right
Why should We invade the personal
realm of the poor just as a matter of
amused curiosity? ] know, back in New

sciousness save as an ugly thing to be
sidestepped.
And certainly she had neither sympathy
nor understanding for the sinner.
When told Of the war frequently waged
between flesh and spirit she said 1t was
absurd and she believed what she said
She drew her skirts aside with cold
white fingers as the multitude passed by
on the other side OF the street with never
an idea that her isolated walk down life's
way held nothing of particular value to
her, or to the folk she touched in passing.
Now those who knew The Woman ad-
mired her. but none there were who
would lay down a life for love of her.
Even her nearest and dearest associates
looked up to her height-and shivered
Time came. however. when the human
Notifications, which had seemed so
strong. fell away. leaving The Woman
so situated that. despite herself, she
mingled more with the work folk.
Whereupon her soul was sick within her.

weakest spot in her character: assaIIed
her there, and. being without experience
In such matters. The Woman knew not
that II was so until her surrender, when

and she saw that she was lust like any
other soldier along the line Of pattIe.
After that The Woman was greatly
loved by the multitude that heretofore
had passed by on the other side of the
street.
She looked out over the Valley of Life
watching with understanding the battles
that others fought. And there was
scorn neither in her eyes nor on her lips
for their victories became now in the
eyes of the watcher beautiful things
hardly won. and their everyday work

them as she extended her hands to help
