 Among all those returned from the war zone in Europe. no one has a more interesting story of experiences and obserYations than he. He went over as a volunteer to entertain the Amer iean men in uniform. For years he was on the American circuits as vaudeville artist. a very fine professional magician and humor- ist, and had settled down to bus mess to handle his gold and cop per holdings. When the call came for service to entertain our soldiers he closed hls mines when copper was high and came back when it was low. In France he organized the 8 N Unit of En- tertainers, meaning Mirth, Mel ody and Magic. He furnished the mirth and magic and the others furnished the music, for nine months in England, France and Germany. Two months they spent on the battle front under continuous shell fire and went into Germany with the army of occupation.
 MT. MacIYer was gassed at Sommedien, France. on October 28. He played over 300 enter tainments to more than 400, 1000 soldiers; in IF combat divisions, 28 hospitals, 55 detached units and one leave area. Friday night.

JUST FROM RANGER

Attorney R. L.. Carlisle of Jerome arrived in Holbrook We'd nesday. as he expressed it. to give the Holbrook Field the once over". Having but re- gently returned from Ranger. Mir Carlisle was in a receptive mood as regards oil talkology and he has beome keenly interested Tn the future of this field, particu- larly after making a trip to the field where he visited the rig of the Holbrook Oil Company. Mir. Carlisle states that the Holbrook Field is nearly identical with Ranger in the way of structure and topography, with the excep- tion that the Ranger Field has a bit more timber. From all that can be learned by a layman by keen observation, Mir. Carlisle is outspoken in his opinion that the Holbrook Field will, in the very near future, rival Ranger and Burkburnett as the headline at traction in the oil world.

INTEREST INTENSIFIED
 BY RUMORS AND DENIALS
Official Denial vs. Public Opinion. Take
 Your Choice

Whether or not the Win d
 River-Hopi well has encountered
 oil is a question of paramount
 importance in Holbrook, and from
 all accounts, in all other portions of the state. Public opinion has
 been gradually growing stronger that some sort of oil showing has been encountered. and the stor- ies. based on so-called inside dope, range from four inches of live sand to '200 feet of oil in the well." and indeed the rumor somewaY reached Jerome that 500 barreiw had been brought in. Without doubt many of these rumors are greatly exagg- erated. even assuming a show ing has been encountered, ac- cording to general opinion. Twelve hundred feet of pump rods taken to the well yesterday gave rise to many more rumors. In the face of general opinion, Supt. Bob. Adams is firm in his denial as published in our last week s issue. and states the pump rods were taken to the we'll for the purpose of pumping water from the hole in case it should be encountered shortly, and in this manner keep the tanks full.

SHAMROCK OIL COMPANY
 PLANS EARLY DEVELOPMENT

The Shamrock Oil and Deve- lopment, Company, mention of which has been made in previous issues as having incorporated, has elected as officers and dire ctors, the following:- w. J. Hennessy, President, M. Fl !. Bryan, Vice President, J. L. Landls. Secretary Treasurer, L. A. Kuehne and l.. D. Sandefur. The company holdings are 4500 acres and arrangements are now being made by President Hen messy, who is on the coast, for contract with L. A. Clompitt for the drilling of the first we'll. Financing i5 being accomplished in the east and the company is reported to be in shape for an early start in development.
The Holbrook news., 1919-06-20

The Hopi officials are reticent and will make no definite state ments. In any event, the rumors
 persist to an amazing degree de- spite official denial.
 In the event that small sand carrying oil should have been en- countered at the depth reported, that is all the most optomistic of us all have desired. as it would verify the expectations based on geological reports that the deeper and heavily laden oil sand at depth was practically a certainty. Expressing our own opinion, we will say that aside from any present rumoF, discovery or de- nial. the bringing in of the Hol- brook field, is but a matter of a little time, whether or not the Wind River people have de- veloped oil at the present stage. The spuddinR of each additional well makes the event more cer- tain.
 The popular belief is that a showing of oil equivalent to a five or ten barrel well has been cased and drilling resumed. Your guess is as good as ours. Take your choice.

FOURTH OF JULY PREPARA-
 TONS TAKING DEFINITE SHAPE

That Holbrook surely will have a real celebration on the Fourth is assured. Secretary Qulrk of the Chamber of Commerce, re- ports that arrangements have been completed for the big bar becue and that soldiers from Fort Apache and Indians from the reservation will take part in the parade and sports.
 Aeronaut Chas. Hawley has been engaged to make two bal loon ascensions, one in the after noon and one in the evening with fireworks. The balloon to be used will be 60 by 40 feet, and the reputation of Mir. Hawley for aerial stunts is conclusive that part of the program will be we'll worth while seeing.
 There will be a big parade and the committee having this mat ter in charge requests that all merchants enter a float as an effort will be made to have twenty in the parade. some of which have already been prom ised. All merchants in HoIbrook or vicinity are invited to partici- pate in entering floats.
 Indications are that a large delegation from surrounding towns will be Tn attendance as the event will surely be a criter- ion for future events of the kind.
 The baseball game has not yet been definitely lined up, but no doubt is felt but that a good game will be staged.
 It has been impossiE to se- cure the services of all army aer- opIane, Senator Ashurst wiring that pressing needs of the ser vice and the Luke memorial aerial at Phoenix had account ed for all available machines. While this is some disappoint- nent. the obtaining of the Haw- ey balloon will make the absence of an aeroplane a matter of less concern to the people.
 Prizes will be offered for the winners of sport events. the full program of which will be an- lounced later.
