OUR OIL FIELDS AND THEIR
PROBABILITIES

Having presented the phase of pro-
tectlon which the corporation COM
mission eXefts over the affairs of cor
poratlons and the marketing of stock
let us turn for a few moments to the
matter of protection which the min
ing engineer and geologist offer to
the stock investor as applicable, not
alone to the Holbrook field, but to
all mining and oil sections.
There was a time within the mem
cry OF people living today when mines
were made by the indiscriminate
SINKING of shafts, and the running
OF tunnels. The work was planned
by the miner whose knowledge of
geology and mineralogy was conin-
ed TO MS own experiences. He was
PROBABLY good miner and knew how
TO Go his work. Silent witnesses are
20 be seen on every hand through
out the mining country of the results
OF this kind of mining Today. how
ever, the mining capital of the coun-
try makes no investment until the
mining engineer has made a favor
able report on the mining condition,
the geology of the district, and the
possibilities of finding ore bodies.
This does not insure certainty that
paying mines are to be found at
every point where the engineer may
determine, possibly, but it has rails
ed the chances from the biggest gam
bic to point where the percentage
OF success can be figured
What is true of the mining indus
try is no less true of the oil pro-
ducing industry, and, perhaps to a
greater extent the determinations of
the oil geologist are to be respected
for he has much larger field Of re
search upon which to base his opin-
ions The geology of oil, however,
is of more recent study and applica-
ton, but the results have been like
wise as beneficial to the production
CT oil as of metals.
The government biologists of the
U. S. Geological Survey made note
number of years ago of the sediment
ary formations of the Holbrook area
as prospective of oil. DR.. Herbert e.
Gregory of the survey made mention
of this fact but at that time the oil
industry was foreign to the Rocky
Mountain section and his mention
was passed with little notice except
perhaps by few of the local people
residing within the district.

len CROWDED OUT OF SUNDAY
SCHOOL

Since the Promotion Day services
at the Christian church and the
grea;'y increased attendance, The
mems class has literally been crowd
cd cut of the Sunday school. AS a
result they are planning to build a
temporary room outside the present
bC.lC ing for their own special use.
II is the idea to ask the me- to
come together at some appointed
tine, when convenient, and con
strhct the room in few h1urs.
Such a room built especially for the
mems class will make it possible
for this class to grow and carry on
its activities as it has not been able
to do under the crowded condition.
Any men who are not now in Sun
day school and who would like to
join our men in an enterprise Of
this kind land Join our mems class
will receive a hearty welcome. We
want to build up large mems
class. Come on, men, let's go.

HOW | CAN MAKE THE
HIGHWAYS MORE SAFE

More than 100000 school children
are to have chance to help make
Southern California the safest ter
ritory in America for motoring, ac-
cording to an announcement just
made by the Automobile Club of
Southern California
All children in school under the
age of fourteen are to be given an
opportunity to get trip to the ma
tion's capital at Washington and al
so to aid in the prevention of acci-
dents by writing ESSAYS on How l
Can Make the Highways More Sofe y
All grammar school teachers in
this locality will also be called up
on to engage in a safety contest with
a reward of $4,000 and a trip to
Washington with all expenses paid,
for the purpose of preventing acci-
dents in this county
Both contests, according to Auto
mobile Club officials, are to be con-
Quoted by the Highway and Highway
Transport Education Committee in
Washington, with representatives in
this section.
Any grammar school pupil four
teen years old or under may COM
pete in writing an essay, about 500
words in length, telling about traffic
rules, how to cross the streets, why
children should not play in the road,
or any other means that will make
the highways more safe. Illustra
tions are to be provided by the pupil.
All ESSAYS must be handed to the
school principal on or before De-
cember 10th, and it is suggested by
Auto Club officials that work on the
essays begin at once. In the case of
teachers bulletins will be received
from Washington as to the conduct
of the contest which may take the
form of lecture, recitation, game
or drama in presenting the safety
subject to pupils.
Full information on these contests
may be obtained from the Automo
bile Club of Southern California.

RED CROSS ROLL CALL

vention of the American Red Cross,
at Columbus, Ohio, the first week in
October, gave renewed proof of the
sentiment that lies behind the per-
manent program of service to hu-
manity. The delegates from Chap
ters in all parts of the country
brought tangible evidence of the
enthusiasm of the workers who are
directing and carrying on in con-
formity with that program. Repre-
sentatives of the many sided nation
al life-of the masses, the public in
its larger sense-bespoke the inter
est in and the positive demand for
a continuance Of the activities which
the Red Cross has set up. There is
an obligation to eX-service men, in
behalf of the American people
there is duty to the rest of the pop
ulation, in behalf of the people for
themselves.
On the Red Cross Chapters de-
volve a double duty in the premises.
They must not only execute the
tasks for which they have elected
themselves responsible; they must
mobilize their communities in sup
port of the tasks which are for the
genral good. The muster roll is the
membership roll; and the fact that
has to be faced is that, notwith-
standing the popular approval if
the Red Coss idea, the general pub
lie is not going to form in line be-
fore a registration booth for the
purpose of signing the roll. Accept
ing this for a fact does not imply
any lack of popular interest, nor
does it signify any practical barri-
ers to the achievement of ideals.
There are practical ideals. Those
CT the Red Cross are such. The trou-
Bile with too many idealists is that
they assume the ideals may be reach
ed in some ideal way, whereas it
requires the hardest kind of practi-
cal work to bring them to realiza-
ton.
Go and get them" That's the So
luton of the Roll Call problem in
every Chapter 1t means personal
solicitation house to house and per-
son to person canvass of all eligi-
bles. Pageants, float parades, post
er displays, ct cetera, are valuable
adiuncts in concentrating actention
DuL LuoV Will uoVGI VI Ing 81 Ooe ~
suits detached from the personal ell
ement in the equation. They are
wasted efforts cnless backed up by
the most intensive energy in get
ting to the people registration book
in hand and putting it up to every
individual to affirm his membership.
The workers enthusiasm isn't
worth shucks if it be imagined it is
contagious sort Of thing which will
affect the masses who primarily are
engrossed with their own affairs and
whose interest in and sympathy with
the work of the Red Cross is an in
cidental matter. The enthusiasm
that counts begets laborious action
and that Of the Red Cross variety
right now finds it's objective in 60
and get them
With the homely truths here set
forth in mind, Chapter Membership
Committees which apply the indicat-
ed rules of action need not worry
about quotae, financing of Chapter
activities and the like. But where
the rules in question are not follow
ed in principle the Roll Call will fall
short of what it should be.

FARM CHIMNEYS NEED STUDY
TO BE SAFE AND WORK WELL

All chimneys for farm buildings
should start from the ground. Those
placed on brackets are unsafe and Of
ten increase the rate of insurance. In
a properly designed house of moder-
ate size, one or at most two chimneys
each containing several flues, will
serve every purpose. If possible, a
flue should be provided for each stove
as much better drafts are thereby OBJ
tanned, say specialists of the United
States Department of Agriculture.
The chimney should have a solid
foundation of brick or stone, and if
of brick, of course, an extra footing
should be two bricks thick and the di-
sould be two bricks thick and the di-
vision walls one brick thick. In case
the chimney is lined with one Of the
patent fire-clay Innings now on the
market one brick will prove of suf-
ficient thickness for the exterior walls.
In case it is necessary to carry a
stovepipe any considerable distance
inside partition to reach the CHM
ney, a terra Gotta thimble should be
used, and where pipe passes COM
pletely through a partition it should
be protected with ventilated thim-
BILE.
In no case should a stovepipe enter
q chimney in closet or an unused
room. The necessity of such make
shifts can usually be avoided
