gas pressure was discovered on
Wednesday of this week. The new
wells which are being drilled are
being halted a. few feet above the
gas level and are being cased and
cemented as they are sunk. When
proper preparations have been made
the wells will be drilled into the gas
strata and it is believed by the drill
'lers that they will be able to bring
in a great flow of dry gas when
completed. Many gas and oil men
are being attracted by the reports
Of the Avoca wells and it is believed
that oil and gas prospecting will be
begun. on an extensive scale in the

Why did not l wait for the Banquet,
Why did not wait to be cheered?

And his little eyes look up at me,

And confess that l wasn't drafted,
