THE NORMAL SCHOOL.

The estimate has been made on the
price at which the city should take
over the old State Normal school
buildings. This amount the city will not
have to pay now. Payment will come
in about two years. probably. The old
made. will be continued to be used
while the new structure is going up.
When, in about two years. the new
buildings are ready for use and the
state is ready to turn them over then
the city will have to pay.
Tonight's meeting OF the council
will be the first to be held since the
estimate was made. For many weeks
members of the council have known
that an appraisal was being made.
Thus for many weeks such members
who were interested enough to look
into the matter. have had an oppor-
tunity to judge for themselves how
valuable the building is, and therefore
how they should vote on whatever
estimate is turned in when that esti-
mate Is presented.
The estimate should be laid before

SHALLOW SAND THEORY
MUST Be BUT A DREAM
Rotary. Drill Again Put Into Action
And Bunting Well Is Going
Down

Liberals hopes for an oil vel
right now seem to be fading. While
every one expected the test Of the
Traders Bunting No.. 2 to prove sat.
isfactory and an oil we'll would result
this dream is about to become one
of those nightmares of joy occasion
ally experienced in oil fields.
The standard tools were run into
the hole, the 8 inch casing set, and
while nothing definitely is known, it
was thought the we'll was being test
ed in the shallow sand.
However, when the 8 inch was
pulled and the rotary substituted for
the standard, hopes were dashed and
among the fellows who watch the
work at the we'll it is thought that
either the shallow sand was not as
productive as had been expected or
that the company wanted to see what
is further down, and that the chance
for a well Immediately right now
is slim.
When Frank McQuigg very unex-
pectedly arrived in Liberal the first
of the week there was much specu-
lation as to the status Of the well but
Mr.. McQuigg quickly set at rest all
rumors by announcing that "no
significance whatever attached to
his visit here"
Mr.. McQuigg arrived early Mon
day morning and walked in upon his
brother Harry Unexpectedly, and
they are having a pleasant visit. y
Frank says Liberal looks perfectly
natural and that it does not seem
over fifteen minutes since he left
which leads to the opinion that he
has not found life slow since his de-
parture.
Everything is moving nicely at the
well, and with the smaller hole to be
made from, now on it is not likely to
be great while until the hole viii
be of sufficient depth to give an idea
as to what it win be.
Meanwhile the local oil fraternity
are settling down to hold their
breath until time for the drill to
strike the deeper sand supposed to
lie at a greater depth.
