ACID IN STOMACH
 SOURS THE FOOD
Says Excess of Hydrochloric Acid is Cause of Indi-
 gestion

4 we'll known authority states that stomach trouble and indigestion are nearly always due to actdity-acfd stomach-and not. as most folks be- lieve, from a lack of digestive juices. He states that an excess of hydro chloric acid in the stomach retards di- gestion and starts food fermentation, then our meals sour like garbage in a can, forming acrid fluids and gases which infate the stomach like a toy balloon. We then get that heavy. empty feeling in the chest, we eructate sour food. be1ch gas, or have heart burn, fatulence. waterbrash, or nau- sea.
 He tells us to lay aside all digestive aids and instead, get from any phar- macy four ounces of lad Salts and take a tablespoonful in a glass of wa ter before breakfast while it is ef- 5ervescinE and furthermore. to con- tjnue this for one week. While relief follows the first dose, it is important to neutralize the acidity, remove the sas-naking mass, start the liver, stm- e;late the kidneys and thus promote 8 free flow of pure digestive juices.
 lad Salts is inexpensive and is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice. combined with Hthia and sodium phosphate. This harmless salts is used by thousands of people for stomach trouble with excellent results.-Adv.

RENEW EFFORTS FOR CONTRACTS IN
 EUROPEAN OILS

Berlin. Feb. 3.-The increased oon- sumption of crude oil and need of a production has focused attention of American Interests upon European fields, and renewed efforts are being made to secure long time contracts for the devlopment of the industry here on 8 large scale.
 Agents of the Standard Oil Go. have been most active and are reported here to have secured virtual monopo- lies of oil prospecting and well sink ing in a number of small Central Eu- ropean states.
 German capital has been watching the operations of the Americans with dicted in quarters close to Hugo Stin- nes, the most powerful of the Ger man capitalists, whose commercial en- terprises extend to all Europe, that American interests soon Twill have a monopoly of the European petroleum supply, if not of the whole earth
 The Standard Oil Go. has secured control of important fields in North action of the Persian administration in granting the concession has been protested by the Russian government and also by the British minister, as incompatible with the Russian-Per- sian agreement of February 26, 1921, which it is claimed gave Russia prior rights.
 Americans also have secured in- a, Czecho-S1oYakia and Rumania, under sipulatons providing for investment of several millions of American dollars in development work, which these countries cannot undertake.
 Negotiations have been begun be- tween the Americans and Russian representatives for leasing the Rus sian fields and putting them upon a productive basis At the same time the Russians are seeking to secure German machinery for their oil fields. without which, 1t is reported, many of the works must close, resulting in permanent damage to certain fields and heavy losses to the Soviet gov ernment.
 Former wealthy oil owners and promoters, now Russian eNileS here, have been participating in these nego- tiations.
 The annual production of crude oil in the United States was estimated by the United States Geological Sur vey on January IS, to be now almost 5o0,0o0,000 barrels, but the report stated that the annual consumption already is beyond that mark and is still growing It added that for some years the United States has had to inn port oil and, with the growth in de- mand, its dependence on foreign oil has become stead greater in spite of our-own increase in output"

ADDITIONAL NEWS FROM
THE CARLISLE COMMUNITY

The laymen of the Baptist church
deserved special mention, the excel
lent talks by Mr.. Bynum. Judge
Foster and Mr.. Sawyer, were an
fine and helpful to the people. The
talk by Mrs Moore was fine and
goes TO prove that she is one Of the
Lords chosen. The Carlisle COM
munty was proud 20 have such peo-
pie visit among them and we well
come them back anytime they can
come.
We wish TO correct an error made
last week by the Carlisle reporters,
and Of course they did not make the
error Intentionally, however, Il was
not voiced by the Carlisle people,
in fact they were proud TO have the
candidates out and they contributed
literally toward paying for the ice
cream--in fact they would not have
sung much anyway, so we were not
put out at all, and we wish to say
in behalf Of Carlisle people that
the people Of Lubbock are always
welcome TO Carlisle.
On last Thursday evening the
people Of Carlisle community assem-
bled to pay the last tribute Of re-
spect to Mrs. J. B. Moore, who died
on Wednesday, and was buried at
Carlisle on Thursday. A large crowd
assembled to pay this last tribute
to this good woman. Rev. Ferguson
read a passage Of scripture, after
which Reverends Pickens and Ross
made good talks. After the services
were conducted the people looked
for the last time at the remains Of
Mrs Moore, until the Master eometh
to make up his jewels.
"A precious one from us has gone,
A voice we loved Is stilled--
