sour HAMERICA RICH IN VIRGIN
 FIELDS OF OIL

WASHINGTON, May 29.-Oil re- sources to the extent of more than 00,000,000 barrels, or about one- fifth of the worlds total supply, await development in the practically virgin fields of South America, ac- cording to Dr. David White, of the United States Geological Survey.
 With the possible exception of North America, Dr. White declares, the South American continent is richer in petroleum resources in pro- portion to it's area than any other section of the world.
 Geologic explorations have as yet advanced only a little way in South America" said Dr. White. "Thus far only a few regions have been tapped. Geologlsts have secured evidence, however, of the existence of high grade petroleum deposits in the con- tinent, and these deposits apparently are very widely disseminated"
 AMERICAN STATISTICS
 The american oil expert places the figures for the South American oil deposits at 13,O0O,000,000 barrels, though he admits that this as very conservative estimate. Provided the same methods of drilling were en- ployed as those used in the United States, Dr. White believes the south ern fields would produce 15,000,0O0,- 900 barrels.
 The worlds petroleum resources are estimated by Dr. White at about 60, 1000, 100000 barrels and woth these figures most of the other eminent geologists agree. It therefore ap- pears that approximately one-fifth of the worlds estimated supply of petroleum awaits the exploitation of the South American fields.
 NOT AWARE OF DEPOSITS
 In many South American countries the inhabitants are not generally aware of the existence of the oil de- posits, according to Dr. White. This is due to the fact that the work of exploration has been done for the most part by. geologists retained by the great oil companies and that they have reported only to their em- ployers.
 Some indications of the presence of oil in paying quantities have been found in practically every country of South America, the doctor says, and he predicts that the whole continent is on the verge of an unexampled era of development.

Chef Had Plenty
But He Could
Hardly Eat

Even an expert chef for an up-to-
date restaurant, with everything heart
could wish in the eating line and the
skill TO prepare 1t in the most appetiz-
Ing manner, finds life miserable and
work burden with his appetite gone
and his health all broken up on ac-
count Of stomach trouble.
According to his own statement,
such had been the case for two years
with William Lackey, 1856 North Wells
ST., Chicago, H., chef at a popular
North Clark st. restaurant, who says
he recently found relief by taking
Tanlac.
Mr.. Lackey now boasts OF won
derful appetite and a stomach that
digests such things as ham and eggs,
corned beef and cabbage, and rich pas
tries, foods that would have almost
put me out of commission before /
took Tanlac."
Before l ran across this medicine"
said he, II was having to lay off from
my work for a week at a time just
on account of the numerous Ills / suf-
fered from indigestion. But when
tell you have gained fifteen pounds,
eat and digest anything, and am on
the job every day feeling fine, you may
know how 1 appreciate Tanlac."
Tanlac is sold by all good druggists.

because Of its newness as day of ma
tional observance. But Thanksgiving
Is real old-fashioned. So we know all
about the proper celebration of this OLD
American holiday.
Popular opinion insists upon fixing
the first Thanksgiving day In 1921,
when the Pilgrims celebrated the gath
ering of their first harvest. They GER
tainiy had large feast; 1t lasted FIVE
days, and they and their indian guests
ate at least five deer. The first Thanks
giving day observed In all the states
was on December Is, 1777; 1t was rec
commended by proclamation of the Con-
tinental congress after the surrender
of Burgoyne. For Ii years there
after congress recommended day of
thanksgiving. and the several states
made appointment in accordance. Then
there was an interval in which the fix
ing of the date was left wholly to the
states. The first congress under the
federal Constitution adopted a reso-
luton asking President Washington to
recommend a day for national thanks
giving and prayer, and the Presidents
proclamation named Thursday. Novem-
Der 20, Of that year. The anti-Fed-
eralists made such a rumpus over 1t
that II was not repeated until 1875,
when President Washington, without
recommendation by congress, set Feb
ruary 10 as a day of thanksgiving.
Then Thanksgiving day apparently
went into the discard as national
holiday. Anyway. until 1915 there
was no other national appointment
In that year. by resolution of con-
gress and proclamation of the Presi-
dent, April II was set apart as a day
Of national thanksgiving for the res
toratiOn of peace.
That was the end of an official
national Thanksgiving day for nearly
half a century. 1t was revived by
President Lincoln when he appointed a
special day Of thanksgiving for the vic
tory of Gettysburg. August 6, 1863.
In the meantime the American peo
pie had been celebrating Thanksgiy-
ing day pretty much all over the
Union. without bothering about oresi-
Dental and gubernatorial proclama-
tons. The American knows a good
thing when he sees it. President Lin
coin, being Of the people. took occa-

In perfect health a natural lubricant
