POWER

Only 100000 barrels of oil left
underground in America, reports the
Geological Survey. That will last Is
years, at the rate oil is being used
up now.
Auto owners need not worry. Al
most unlimited supplies of oil lie in
western beds of shale rock. Cheap
method of extracting it will be de-
vised when necessary and profitable.
Gasoline will soon be a back num-
Der. Another decade or two and auto
and airplane engines will be run by
electricity sent by wireless from
giant water power plans and power
stations burning coal at the mines.

GROWTH

Samuel Mather loaned $63.62 to the
state of Massachusetts,. That was in
1894. Sans heirs ask $4,000, which
is what the original $63.62 would
amount to now with interest.
It's good thing for the rest Of
US, that no one lives as long as
Methuselah, who died when he was
969. He could put 500 in bank
when a young man, let it grow at
compound interest, and in his old age
have all the money in the orld,
many times over.

The Milford High School had an
excellent team last season and lost

weak places. In the two practice
games this year with Harrington
they won both contests by the scores
OF 20 and 3 TO /.
The Milford team still has their
pitching ace. Wilson. who last year
won IL out OF IA games played. and
the teams pitching strength has
been greatly increased by Posties. a
recruit, who has shown great possi-
bilities.
They still have the veteran out
field OF last year intact. There IS no
question but what the best work on
the team with the stick" Will be
done by Riggs and Wilson who are
counted as "sluggers" In high school
ranks.
The school has arranged hard

period the team that had been
scored on made IS yards on straight
football. only 10 have the whistle

In the third period the team that
had been scored on worked the ball
inside OF their opponents 2o-yard
line on three occasions. but for
some reason or other failed to score,
either a tumble or a penalty.
In the final period, with the field
ankle deep in mud, the team that
had been scored on finally worked
the ball over the line. That made
the score to 6. 1t was necessary TO
kick the goal 20 tie.
