BROKE RECORD OF CITY COURT 
John Cotnoir Appears For Be-
 ing Found Drunk
Eirst Case Before His Honor This
 Month

Jchn Cotnoir had to go and spoil it al The record of Putnam city court was as clean as q newly laurdered collar. Not a speck on 1t since before the present month came in. But John xf up from Attawaugan, met a frie1d and the friend gave him some of he forbidden juice and John went doV and stayed down until the arm of the law raised him up.
 John told the court that the man who gave him the booze was unknown b him, but he insisted that he. John, did not pay for it The court told John he was an Al fabrieator, or at least Judge Geissler said to John, "I don't believe you are telling the truth" Anyhow John stuck to it, but in these days of high prices in booze, and 1t is hard to get at any price, no one could quite swallow Johns story that a strange man made him pres ent of tank full.
 John said he was on his way back to Whitinsville and stopped off at Put nam to see sister. He admitted that he was looking for drink and found 1t, but not until he met the mysterious good samaritan who came from lover the line
 John had S30 when he arrived. He had only $l6 in court and could only account for the difference by saying he must have thrown it away. After John paid his fine he had one dollar left. Subtract and find out how much John's drunk cost him.

Small Oil Companies Face
Shortage of Drilling Supplie,

RANGER, Tex, Sept. 59.-If the steel
strike continues for any great length
of time it may cause a suspension of
oil drilling operations and the laying
of new pipe lines on the part of many
of the smaller companies. Most of the
larger concerns are said to be we'll pro-
vlded with the various kinds Of steel
supplies that are necessary to the oil
industry, and consequently will not be
affected directly by the strike. Some
of the big companies have enough
casing on hand to drill five hundred
wells, but it has been the practice of
the small operator to buy casing and
pipe in small quantities in the open
market to meet his immediate needs.
Nearly all of the large companies
have supply depots of enormous capac-
ity. and these are we'll filled with such
steel products as are required in the
industry. The increased demand for
steel storage tanks is being partly filled
by the removal of empty tanks from
the more exhausted fields in Oklahoma
and other parts of the country to the
new producing areas in Texas. Rig
irons, casing, wire lines, drilling tools,
cables, pumps, jacks. engines, boilers,
tubing and pipe are all made of iron
or steel, and a prolonged strike in the
mills might prove disastrous to the oil
industry, Notwithstanding the fact that
the larger companies, for the time be-
ing, are we'll equipped in these sup
plies
