DEATH OF DE Los HALE

De Los Hale departed this life at
Blackfoot on Monday, March %,
after short illness. He had not.
felt we'll for about a week and had
been troubled with some sharp pains
but did not think it was anything
serious. When he was advised that
it was appendicitis, he submitted
to an operation and it was learned
that the appendix had been broken
for several days and it had advanced
to such a state that it was impossible
to do anything for him.
He was the son of Mr. and Mrs.
Aroet C. Hale of Groveland. He was
nineteen years old and young man
of excellent character.
The funeral was held this Thurs
day afternoon from the Groveland
meeting house.

The Archaean Gaping of the eastern
mountains is without fault, showing
that the volcanic activity sealed
much of the oil in the strata of that
section.
Charles Wetzel will be remem-

Gould and several English companies
in the west during the time that Pro-
fessor Meek and Engelman made
their surveys some fifty years ago.
These men all agreed that when the
country needed oil that this particu-
lar field would probably be an excel
lent formation to prospect Profess
sor Dana also points to this section
in one of his early publications, in
which he prophesied the finding of
oil in Texas, Oklahoma, Montana,

places which since have been pro-
ducing oil.
