MAKING OIL OPERATIONS SAFE

If the plan of operation being
brought into play by the California
Wyoming OIL Company of Lusk, wy
oming, and Los Angeles, California,
continues to work out as successfully
with other similar organizations, it
would seem that new era is dawning
for the oil industry; at least, for that
portion as Is concerned with the float
ing Of new companies AMI opening up
new fields. Much might be said in fav.
or Of the plan. 1t will operate for the
safety Of the long-suffering investor
at large, and is designed to secure
every dollar invested with Liberty
bonds. which the investor, speculator
or by whatever name you care to call
those people whose money has for
long gone toward the development Of
oil regions, may demand in lieu of his
stock after given period.
The aforementioned company is
carrying on an extensive national ad-
vertising campaign on this new plan
and reports an unprecedented success.

DO YOU sir DOWN PROPERLY
Sometimes That ls a Little Mistake
in Daily Existence That Tends
TO Shorten Life.

1t is said that there is right and a
wrong way of doing everything.
Yet how many of us realize that
there is a right and wrong way Of
sitting down, climbing stairs and so
on? asks a London Tit-Bits writer.
Sitting down on chair seems so
easy that it is impossible to do it the
wrong way, but specialist, lecturing
recently, pointed out that the habit
many people have Of sitting on the
edge of a chair is very injurious. A
certain nerve is sat upon, and the re-
suit is sciatica, caused through the
nerve being injured.
Walking up stairs is another thing
that nine out of every ten people do
the wrong way. The usual method
is to place the ball of the foot on the
stairs and then take the whole weight
of the body on the part Of the foot,
the heel never being placed on the
ground until the top is reached. The
right way, however, is to place the
whole of the foot on each stair. II
this is done there will not be so much
fatigue when the top is reached.
The habit of boiling eggs and bacon,
coffee and other things, and then run
ming for a train or bus, is fatal to
the digestive system. The food is not
properly masticated, and the whole
body is disorganized by the wild rush
for the train.
How many people drink a gallon Of
water a day? This is the amount that
should be taken If one wishes TO re-
tain good health.
Many people go wrong in cleaning
their teeth. The habit of merely wash
ing the outside of the teeth is wrong,
The back and top of the teeth need
Just as much attention. Decay sets in
as easily at the back and on the top
of the teeth as anywhere else. Re-
member also that the top of the teeth
is the part that comes in actual con-
tact with food.
Standing does not appear to be
particularly difficult operation, but no
tice people standing in a railway sta
ton. Notice the men, with their
hands buried in their pockets, backs
bent, and heads dropping forward and
the women with their feet at extra
ordinary angles, and so on.
The body, when one is standing,
should be balanced equally on the two
feet, which should be turned out
slightly. The whole body should be
held upright, including the head.
Talking to doctor, the writer asked
him what effect doing such things in
the wrong way would have on the
life of an ordinary healthy person.
He replied that it was difficult to
generalize, but that doing something in
the wrong way daily might lessen life
by fifteen years or more.

amusing incident, which might rfiave

Zone Saturday afternoon the mine
sweeping division at the admiralty re-
ceived lOng-distance telephone call
from the local Durham police, who
stated that mine had been washed
ashore, but that before they or the
coast guard could warn people off,

clambered on top of ii and gone to
sleep. What were they 10 do? They
were given strict injunctions not to
attempt TO arouse the man, because in
waking up suddenly he might break

suits to himself and others. Two hours
later the police, in a very relieved
voice, reported that the man had awak-
ened Of his own accord and had slid
off the mine into safety"

A year or so back, public opinion
was turning toward pavement as a
solution of our road problem. 1t was
becoming to be the popular belief
that nothing but pavement could
make a permanently good road. 1t
seems to us now, however, that the
tend is back toward gravel again.
Locally it seems to be the case any,
way. Men who were shouting strong
for pavement a year ago are now
openly more mildly about it, or even
openly admitting their mistake and
talking for gravel. The fine exam
Piles of gravel roads built in recent
years are probably bringing it about.
Most everybody will say they like
the fine gravel roads east and west
of Usage better than the Floyd
county pavement. The gravel makes
a beautiful smooth road travelable in
all weather. 1t costs about half as
much, and promises to be as cheap
to maintain as pavement. Gravel
can be spread on the full width Of
wide grade without prohibitive
cost, but pavement is confined to a
narrow width on account of the ter
rife expense. Its narrowness makes
it highly dangerous. Our prediction
is that gravel, after all will be the
solution of our road question.-osage

Artificial Precious Stones.

Gemstones owing their attractive.
ness TO art are not now mere imita.
tons, but the actual stones are pro-
duced artificially, as in the case of
rubies and sapphires. In other in
stances, natural minerals are improved
artificially. An important industry
exists in the artificial coloring Of the
semi-precious agate, and giving new
colors TO other stones has been at
tempted. AT the Reno station of the
United States bureau of mines, ra-
dunn has been used to obtain a more
valuable tint. A colorless Colorado
topaz has been given a pleasant vel.

permanent when exposed to light, ex-
periments are being continued with
the hope that light-proof shades may
be eventually produced.
