FIRST FLOW OF KEARNS WELL
LARGEST IN NORTHERN FIELD
Offset 70 Gladys Belle Gushes 300 Barrels in 10
Minutes Before Subsiding, Is Estimate
Made on Ground

on the casing to run the production
into tanks.
Oil men present at the well said
that the performance while drilling
the n foot into the sand was better
than the Hogan, which has proved a
good well, averaging at the present
time about $50 barrels a day.
The action of the Kearns well is the
more remarkable since this is but off
set distance from the Ohio-Sunburst-
Thornton in the salne section, which
while a good well after being shot, had
hardly more than a showing prior to
being shot.
Other Wells Planned
There has been no drilling east be-
tween the Kearns and the Hogan, two
miles to the southeast, nor has there
been drilling directly to the south in
this end of the field. although Hogan
has now spudded in on his lease about
a half mile east in section II. and on
the quarter section held by him
through Arby B~eardsIey on section 16.
To the south, the Gladys Belle is
drilling on the Seabrooke lease in the
northwest quarter section Of 10.
". NJ. Fulton IS preparing to drill on
the sunburst-Gunderson lease. with
the derrick on the northeast quarter
northwest quartz rsection of 10.

The Ohio Sunburst-Kearn well on
section 1882 w, offset on the east
to the Gladys Belle well in the Kelvin
Sunburs1 field, came in with a rush at
noon Wednesday and is said to be
greater in initial performance than
eve the Hogan well in section 22-35-
2 ", previously the best we'll in the
field.
According to reports from the field,
the well when drilled in a few days
ago, merely touched the sand that
there was some slight ave in, although
it was not thought important at the
time. Despite this, the oil had made a
substantial rise and showed agitation
even before the hole was cleaned out.
The 6 5-S pipe was run Wednesday
morning and the hole cleaned out.
Oil Hits Grown Block
The oil came up and was flowing
a little over the casing top as the bit
went down a matter of a foot or so,
it was reported. Then the oil came
with a rush with gas behind it and hit
the crown block for better than 10
minutes. During that tine, it was re-
ported. the we'll flowed 300 barrels Of
oil. No further attempt at drilling
was made, but a connection was fitted

After you watch them for a while
you can realize what toughness and

And then you remember those early
pioneers who trekked westward over

nature and marking their road by the
graves they left on either side.
Pendleton hadn't lost this spirit in
1868 when 1t had the argument as to
the proper place for the county seat
with Umatilla. A simple solution was
found. First Pendleton built a court
house and then at the point of Colt
.45s moved not only the county rec
ords but also the county officers over
from the rival town.
And Pendleton hasn't lost that spirit
now. On Roundup days the blood
of those pioneers generally is spilled
in greater OF less quantities, but their
descendants also inherit the game
ness. toughness and tenacity which in
every conceivable hardship opened up
an empire to civilization. That is

and the rider is up the blind is snatched

There was one bucker by the name
of Lena that sticks in our memory.
She was large and lean, with a true
Roman nose and an eye which glowed
like a railroad safety lamp. She had
fixed ideas as to her rights and was
born founder OF leagues and socie-

Wilhelmina's
Royal Palace
UEEN wIUHELMINA's palace

~ UEEN WITHDRAWALS palace
~ at Amsterdam is built upon
" foundation of 1859 piles driven
deep into the ground--15o carloads
Of piles, which II laid end to end, would
make a string reaching nearly all tho
way from Boston to New York city.
On such base the conservative royal
family of the Netherlands. which has
withstood the recent tempest of Eu-
rope, has its official residence.
The Hague, where the States Cen
eral meets and the Dutch Government
Is located, Is not, as is generally be-
lieved. the capital OF the Netherlands.
Amsterdam, a city below sea level,
reclaimed from the sea, is the legal
capital of Holland and the Queens
official residence.
Although Her Royal Highness spends
more Of her time at her palace in The
Hague and a great deal moro still on
her country estate at Het Loo, she is
obliged to visit her magnificent palace
at Amsterdam at least once year In
order to receive an allowance which
is made to her by. the city government
Of Amsterdam. But she does not like
to live in the palace, which is one of
the finest in Europe.
These royal visits to Amsterdam
take place in May of each year. On
such occasions n royal ball is always
arranged, a gala function which is at
tended by the elite Of the little king
dom of the Netherlands. Resident
officials of other Governments and
their wives are then introduced to the
Queen. provided they are approved by
her attendants beforehand
The simplicity of this event other
wise is remarkable. On the part of tho
ladies who attend conservative decol-
lete is about the only requirement or
restriction OF their wardrobes. The
gentlemen, on the other hand, are re-
quired TO wear a high hat, white
gloves and evening dress. The men
are introduced before the day of the
ball. in a body, while presenting the
ladies' to her Majesty IL a part OF The
