GARRISON SINGS
To BIC AUDIENCE
Lyric Soprano Charms with
Exquisite Artistry at
Recital.

Mabel Garrison yesterday thrilled
a large audience at the National
Theater with her lovely lyric So
prano voice. The recital was the
fourth OF an Artists Course" ar
ranged by Mrs. wilson-Greene.
Her first group of songs were (a)
Shepherd! Thy Demeanour Vary,
(b) Cant de la Verge" Crom an old
Spanish mystery play). (c) Scene ct
Rondo, Non Je ne veux pas chanter''
by Isouard. OF these the Cant de
la Verge" a weird plaintive strain,
was given the most effectively al
though the wonderful thrills in the
shepherd song brought forth much
applause. An encore followed the
next number, ~Polonaise-Je suis I'll
tania" from Mignon by Thomas,
which seemed to completely exhibit
her voice with successful jugglery of
notes and breath control
Her exquisite Hymn to the Sun
from Cog dor" by Rimsky-Korsa-
koff which she sang so successful
when she appeared in Washington
this winter as soloist with the New
York Symphony Orchestra, was ex-
Quisitely rendered.
Mr.. George Siemonn at the piano
was an excellent accompanist and
often added to the beauty of the
numbers with his rare and pleas
ing accomplishments.

TEXAS OIL FIELDS LOOK
VERY PROMISING

FORT WORTH, Texas, Oct g.
North Texas oil operators are show
ing considerable interest in what pro-
misses to be a new production area in
the Burkburnett oil field. The Tex
homa Oil Company has drilled i'm a
shallow well about one and one-half
mile south of the oil Burkburnett
townsite pool.
The well is approximately 1000
feet deep, about 500 feet shallower
than the townsite and Burk- Wag-
goner drilling and flowing sixty bar
rels hourly.
This is considerer very good for a
shallow pool. In case it develops by
future drillings that new production
area actually has been discovered.
Burkburnett will again be the scene
of wild activity.
The well was drilled ON the Capper
and Roller Leases. Other wild cat
operations will be launched in that
vicinity at once.
