ed to get drilling operations started
within 30 days.
w. S. Willett, geologist, of Inde-
pendence, Mo, who examined the
karlin-Bolivar structure. has complet-
ed his report. He says the rocks of
the formation are the limestones of
the upper part of the Mississippian
period. There is left only a little of
the Pennsylvania formation there, he
says, occasional sand-stones revealing
oil seepages which often occur in
these rocks. The discovery of dolo-
mite he considers significant.
The best evidence OF oil in Polk
county, he says. is the discovery Of
gas in a water well drilled near the
railway station at Karlin. This gas
was found at 200 feet Willet ex-
presses the opinion that the Mississ-
ippian formation can be penetrated
within $500 feet and that if the upper
sands prove nonproductive oil should
be found at the point Of contract of
the Devonian and Silurian strata at
the base Of the Mississippian.
He points out that similar forma-
tions have been productive Of oil in
Kentucky, West Virginia, Ohio and
Pennsylvania and expresses the belief
that the only reason oil has not been
found in Missouri is that no sufficient
test has been drilled on proper struc-
turp

GREAT INTEREST IS
MANIFESTED BY THE
ARDMORE MERCHANTS
IN THE COUNTY FAIR

Local merchants are beginning to
take more than passing interest in
the next county fair that will be held

pettors aside from the regular pre-
miums offered by the fair association.
As usual. A. c. Holman, the timer,
will donate a 60-barrel galvanized iron
wanter tank to the farmer showing
the best 100 ears of corn. Mr.. Hol-
man has been doing this every year
since the association was founded. and
says that he considers it one of the
best advertising stunts he ever used,
and he IS one of the best and most
| consistent advertisers in the city.
The Sneed Furniture Company gave
away a phonograph last season and
John Sneed. manager Of the firm, an
nounces that he will give away six
machines at the coming fair
Other merchants are taking the tip,
and the fair association executives
have been tentatively promised farm
wagon, plow, cultivator and
other necessary farming implements
that will go for special prizes in the
various departments, if the merchants

SENTIMENT FAN0RS
EDUCATION

Washington, Feb. 17.-ln many quar-
ters the sentiment in favor of COM
pulsory education in the public pri-
mary schools is growing apace, due
doubtless, to the belief that only in
tcis way will the nation ever meet the
situation as it should be met. OF par
ticular significance. in this connec-
ton, is the progressive and thoroughly
American action of the grand jury OF
Davidson county, Tennessee, of which
Nashville is the county seat in adopt
ing resolution approving the Smith
Towner bill for department OF cdu-
cation, with the head a member OF
the presidents cabinet, This resolution
was taken up by the county court
which in turn adopted a resolution
urging the state legislature of Tonnes
see to mcmorialize the congress TO en-
act the Smith-Towner bill into law.
Legislature Acts Unanimously
Cognizance of these resolutions was
taken by the legislature which, by
unanimous vote in both the senate
and house, adopted a strong resolu-
tion requesting the congress to pass
THE department OF education measure.
Further, the grand lodge, +. A.
NJ. of Tennessee, in session at Nash
vile, January ~, 1921, adopted reso-
luton, No l as follows:
BE it resolved by the NJ. w. Granl
Lodge of Tennessee, +. & \. NJ, that
we recognize and proclaim our belief
in the free and compulsory education
of the children in our nation in public
primary schools supported in part by
national taxation, upon which all
children shall attend and be instructed
in the English language only without
regard to race or creed as the only
sure foundation for the perpetuation
/ and preservation of our free instl-
tutions guaranteed by the constitution
of the United States; and we pledge

mote by all lawful means the or

ENTHUSIASM IN
COTTON GROWERS
ASSOCIATION GROWS

Interest in the Oklahoma Cotton
Growers association has now reach.
ed point where a number Of coun-
ties have pledged to the state or
ganization committees to secure their
quota of members without outside help
according to Monroe G. Wright field
worker for the association in this
county.
The latest county to make this pro-
posal is Latimer, where locally man
aged campaign Is now in progress.
The greatest enthusiasm is in evil
dence everywhere. says Mr.. Wright.
The campaign is no longer in the
experimental or doubtful stage, it is
now at the point where success is
assured if everybody keeps right up
in the collar and pulls his share OF
the load.
This is not a matter in which but
one class is Interested it is purely
a cotton selling organization which nc
one but cotton growers can join OF
control, but the benefits it will bring
to the cotton producing section OF
Oklahoma will be shared by everyone
no matter in what line Of business he
is engaged
when the farmers prosper, al
classes prosper. Prosperity ior Tho
cotton farmer means prosperity fol
banker. the merchant, the grocer, II

ness.

however, | would not advise laXitl

sition over. but instead wish to urge
