The Tabernacle
IAN Announcement

1t is with great pleasure that the
camp pastors Of the Baptist and
Presbyterian denominations. who are
also acting pastors of the two local
churches, announce that hereafter
except for Sunday school, the entire
program of the tabernacle is to be Of
a joint character. Last Sunday
morning the Baptists in the taberna-
Gle and the Presbyterians in their
church, took separate and unanimous
action, voting heartily in favor Of a
united service for the morning, as
well as for the evening hour, and
there is every reason to believe that
the confidence and fellowship thus
expected will bring large and lasting
results.
In this day when questions that
affect the world are in the balance,
and in this place where men Of ey-
cry faith are gathered, there is no
room for that which divides. All the
emphasis that can be gathered is nee =
essary and only that which unites
can muster strength.
So the undersigned, who are for
the present in charge of the taberna-
Gle, extend a cordial invitation to all
interested, both permanent and tran
sient residents, to share in a pro-
gram of work and worship. Our
aim is to promote the soldiers good
and the community's welfare and
thus have some part in the advance
ment Of Christ's kingdom.

PREDICTS GUsHERs IN LUNA
GeOlOglst Gives Columbus OH Fields
Blu Boost

L. l.. Butler. Of San Francisco
a geologist employed by the Booth
Oil Company, o man with wide ex-
perience in oil fields in Ohio, Okla
homa, Wyoming, Cadi, Louisiana
and in fact all Of the principal fields
in the United States, went over the
valley this week very thoroughly, and
has made a very Favorable report to
his company. He stated that he
thought it very possible that the deep
drilling would develop gushers in
some parts Of the valley.
He was shown the Kniffin well,
and said he thought the prospects
were good. He was taken over the
valley, but seemed to be more favor
ably impressed with his findings
northwest of town. He visited the
well on the homestead Of L. ]. Peach
and in examining the formation dis
covered that the well had been dug
through a stratum Of parafine shale.
He said that he would advise his
company to drill or the north side
Of the great anti-cline northwest Of
town, and that he would recommend
that a standard rig be brought here,
the company at first having consid-
cred bringing in a diamond drill for
the purpose Of making tests.
Mr.. Butler arrived Monday msrn-
inc and remained here until Wednes-
day evening. From here he went to
Roswell to make a report on some
property, and will return inside Of j
week to make further Investigations.
L. H. Blankenship, who has been
in Columbus for several weeks as
the representative Of the Booth Oil
Company, has now under lease a
large acreage. All the leases he de-
sired have been signed up with the
exception Of three, and there is not
thought to be any question about
these, the parties residing long dis
tances from New Mexico.
Mr.. Blankenship is very enthusiasts
tic and believes that the company will
have a rig here inside Of thirty days.
He believes that Mr.. Buffers re-
port will be instrumental in speeding
up the company to their utmost to
get on the job Just as soon as it can
possibly be done.-COlumbus COur-

BOY WOUNDED
FRANCE
UPSAIuA

Upsala News-Tribune (2O: Private
Oscar A. johnson, who left here with
the first quota of drafted boys from
Morrison county for Camp Dodge, Ia,
for training, going to France in May,
1918, was wounded about August 6,
1913.
He was first reported as missing in
action on August 6, 1918. On August
~. he wrote relatives here that he had
been wounded, but did not state how
serious. A letter was received by his
brother David, September %, which
stated that he was wounded in the
right arm and shoulder. He is located
in hospital in France. The last letter
did not state any particulars as to the
seriousness Of the wound but it is
thought by his relatives here that he
will fully recover in few months and
return to the front. He stated in the
letter that he had been over the top
twice after the Huns.
His many friends and relatives here
thought when he was first reported
missing that he had been taken prison
er by the Germans, but the reports men
toned above remove all such anxiety.
