A BEAUTIFUL SERVICE.

The services at the Episcopal
Church on last Sunday when the
U. 5. Flag and the Service Flag
were placed in the sanctuary OF
the church, was very impressive.
The sermon or address by Rev.

The music rendered by the choir
was appropriate ana beautiful.
We can not refrain from making
special mention of Mrs. Earl

choir. TO whom is due much credl
for the appropriate selection OF
the songs which were so beauti-

THE GASOLINE SUPPLY

The various suggestions on saving to
help win this war are not only highly
commendable for that specific reason
but also upon general principles for all
time because we have been as a nation
extravagant and wastefuI to scandal
lous degree
But while economizing let us not get
into false panic about the matter.
For example in the question of the
gasoline supply, that the Standard Oil
Company in order to justify their out
rageous exactions would have us be-
lie'e is near giving out. This is far
from true, as the following circular by
the big Chevrolet Motor Company, Of
New York conclusively proves:
1t is estimated that all of the United
States forces will need, for daily use,
about 959, 900 gallons of gasoline. This
may seem hign, but when you consi1er
that the daily pred .ct on figures smount
to 9,S49. .OC0 gallons, you begin to ap-
preciate that there is enough for all
legitimate uses.
Large quantities of gasoline will be
saved from now on by taking more care
in its use. Here are some of the
methods to be employed: Eliminate
losses from tank wagons, leaky and
poorly adjusted carburetors. motors
running idle. waste in garages, and by
the use of kerosene for cleaning parts
in garages and repair shops or service
stations. 1t is figured that these
methods will save million and half
gallons day.
1t is noticeable that stocks of Crude
Petroleum held by pipe line companies
at the close Of August totaled "a,
thousand barrels compared with 92, 865
thousand barrels month before. There
were 2,04O new oil wells completed IN
September compared with 1,841 for
August and the new production for Sep
tember amounted to las thousand bar
rels compared with 155 thousand bar
rels of new production during August.
The production Of petroleum in this
country in 1916 was 900, 767 thousand
barrels compared with 28l, ,104 thousand
barrels in 1915. the increase being Z ger
cent. The increase in value of the
United States output over the preceding
year was 81 per cent.
