TROOP 81 BOY SCOUTS OF
AMERICA.

AMERICA.
Troop 80 Boy Scouts of America
will hold their regular weekly meet
ing, Saturday, Sept 18th, at Z P. Nj.
SCOUTING-WHAT 1T Is
The Boy Scout Movement is based
on a system of Boy Education rather
than Boy Instruction. One OF the
National Leaders explains the Scout
ing idea as follows:
people still ask What is this
Boy Scout Movement" Well,
briefly it is way of playing at
Backwoodsmen and Pioneers" BY
it's attractiveness boys are led to
carry out games and practices which
are of special educational value to
them. The aim is to inculcate char
acter, which though essential to sue
cess in life, is not taught within the
school, and being largely a matter
of environment is too generally left
to chance, often with deplorable re-
suits. The Scout Movement en-
deavors to supply the required en-
vironment and ambitions through
these games which lead boy to be-
come a better Man and a good Citi-
zen. 1t applies equally to all
classes of boys. In the matter of
Religion it is non-sectarian; for the
rest we take boys of every class and
trust them all the same We favor
no political party, and have no other
motives than to make good Citi-
zens"
The boy Scouts of America" is
chartered by Congress. Its Off
Gals, Advisors and Patrons rightly
include the leaders of all Creeds,
Races and Political Parties in every
section of the United States.

$5OO,OOO PLANT TO-
DISTILL LICNITE
Concern Buys 1000 Acres Near
Texarkana-Will Work Out
By-products.

TEXARKANA, Ark, Jan. IL
Some months ago it was announced
that company composed of New
York capitalists had purchased about
1000 acres in the Carbondale Ignite
coal district in Bowie County, about
80 miles southwest of here. Now
comes the further announcement, and
from reliable source, that the COM
pany proposes within short time to
erect plant on the property for the
purpose of distilling oil from the lig-
mite, making bricks from the Ignite
after the oil has been distilled from
it. Tar, phosphates, dyestuffs and
other by-products also probably will
be manufactured. 1t is estimated
that the proposed plant will cost about
$500,000. The Ignite in this field is
so near to the surface that no under
ground mining will be necessary, but
steam shovels will be used. The
thickness Of the Ignite beds is said to
range from seven to nine feet, which
exists in practically inexhaustible
quantities, 1t is said.
1t is understood that the work of
constructing the plant viii be started
within the next sixty days. It is said
the new industry will have q monthly
pay roll Of about $4,000.

WAS CHARLESTON WELL
A FAIR TEST7

Interested parties keep asking the
question, /" Do you believe the oil
well (Newton No. II at Paynes near
Charleston was fair test?"
So many asked us the question that
we began to seek information from
among well-informed oil men, and the
majority of them are inclined to he
lieve the test good as far as they went
with the drill. The Charleston OIL &
Gas Company gave out the statement
that. drilling stopped at 1900 feet be-
cause of lack of funds. The we'll was
filled with heavy mud and plugged at
the top. 1t is reported that the Com.
pany is making an endeavor to get
the farmers to waive rentals due on
the leased lands and If successful then
an effort viii be made to drill the
hoe deeper. Biologists claim that
the Tuscaloosa sands should be err
'countered at depth of about 1000
feet-This is the sands which oil men
are banking on to supply oil in this
part of Mississippi
The north Mississippi herald., 1921-01-21

1t is reported that the Preston Oil
Company have struck oil in their well
at Winona. The Preston people have
the well closely guarded and are not
giving out any information whatever.
However, the company has unloaded
a large lot of steel cab'e and on We'd
nesday car load of cable tools ar
rived and Thursday the company was
busy transporting the new machinery
and car load of casing to the drilling
site. Oil men say this is significant.
The sWinona Times says the well is
down about $500. that the bit stopped
on rock and that above this rock
an oil showing was had. That it is
the intention of the company 20 test
ont this showing as soLn as necessary
equipment arrives, and if it doesn't
prove to be of commercial quantity,
the drilling will proceed through the
rock.
The next ten days should tell
whether this well will be a producer
or not.

LITTLE ROCK, Ark, Jan. IT.
Foe the past two or three DAYS Little
Rock hotels have been crowded with

ana, Oklahoma, and other states on
their way to the FL Dorado oil fields
The Rock Island and Iron Mountain
trains, leaving Little Rock at mid
night, are crowded to capacity daily.
Parties returning from Ell Dorado
state that it is almost impossible 20

liens of the town are doing every
thing In their power to make visitors
as comfortable as possible.

PAPER FROM FAT PINE

There has been a paper mill in oper-
alton at Bogalusa, La, for some time
where manv grades Of paper have
made from fat pine wood and the sue
-ess attending the experiment has
been sufficient to warrant the eper-
ators to make extensions. Four new
mills will be erected at once, each as
large as the present plant, and the
manufacture of paper will be engaged
in on an extensive scale. The four
new mills represent a cost OF $S,0Q0,-
600.

have passed on this especial part of
Chickasaw County. The drill si.c IS
on an arrow line. IA miles southwest
of the College Well at Okolona, that
has showing of high grade oil, at
$50 feet.
Mr.. G. W. Murray, a noted geolo-
gist, states that he has spent several
months making a survey of Mississip-
pi and south Alabama. and that be
found the evidence of both oil and
gases at this point more satisfactory
than in any other district he inspsct-
ed.
Mr.. Murray has a national .-epusa-
tion as petroleum geologist, was tie
first to discover oil in Illinois md Ok
lahoma, Midway fields in California,
Crichton, Red River Pool, La, La
trobe, S. A., Winchester, KY, Des-
demonia, and North Burkburnett,
Texas. In speaking of oil in North
Mississippi Mr.. Murray says: ITO say
that Mississippi has oil would only be
speaking the divine laws Of nature;
If Chickasaw county has no petroleum
sands of commercial value then the
divine laws of nature are not to be
reckoned with. We have faith enough
that we are going to give it trial"

SEEK END OF CONGRESS
 PROBES

Washington, Aug. As Congress continues to display a willingness to investigate anything from the price of tin horns to the transportation puzzle, there is talk on Capitol Hill Hhat "anti-investigation blocs" may be formed in both Houses to combat further inquiries unless they seem to be of extreme importance and it is showing that some benefit may be de- rived from them.
 Congressional Investigations, lead ing often to nothing more than vol Hminous reports filed away in the archives of the Capitol, have been the subject of severe criticism for many years, but Congress goes mer- rily along, probing into this and that, las it has done for more than a cen tury.
 These official inquiries are expen- rsive, the cost of single investigation sometimes running into several thou sand dollars. In many cases it has been necessary for members of in vestigating committees to conduct hearings in various parts of the country, and it is usual thing to make provisions for such trips when resolutions authorizing inquiries are presented in the Senate or House. Stenographic reports of all testimony heard by the investigators are always printed for the use of Congress and anyone interested in the results of HtS 1abors, but in most cases the printed documents succeed in accom- tplishing nothing more than gather ing dust and turning yellow with age,
