REACHES DEEP SAND

Humble Oil and Refining cOmpanys
the south line Of the southeast quarter
of the southeast quarter of section 26,
ls-2w, Hewitt southeast extension, reach
ed the top Of the deep sand ut 278O feet
yesterday, and is now underreaming
the 69s-inch casing preparatory to drill
ing into the pay. This is the third well
In the southeast area to reach the
Humble sand, and is located ON the ex-
treme west edge of production i'm the
southeast territory. The Humble-Gill
| No. 3 was deenened from the 2300-fOOt
sand from which il had been producing
| for some time.
The Humble people are also deep
ening their Gill No. in the southeast
corner Of the southeast Of the southeast
quarter Of section 26, ls-2w from the
23O0.foot sand and are now drilling in
it at 1920 feet.
Offsetting the Humble-Gll No. on
the east, the Hudson Gillian -Coline in.
terests are rigging up their No. twin
to their No. /, to drill TO the deep pay
The location is in the southwest corner
Of the southwest Of the southwest quar-
er of section %, 4s-2w.. This well should
be ready to spud by the early part OF
next week.
The rainy weather prevented deeper
drilling in the -Colint
No. 3 in section 25, 4s-2w yesterday as
had been originally contemplated. How
ever, it is the intention of the operators
to make all effort to resume this af
ternoon. 4 corrected steel line measure
ment run Monday revealed the top O
the sand to be 2S57 feet, and penetrat
ed to 1888 feet. During tn first 2
hours this we'll put $40 barrels into tn,
tanks.

Resume Operations
North Hewitt Test

The Humble Oil ans Refining
company is making preparations to
resume drilling on its No. l on the
Hewitt-Walker farm, in the south
west corner Of the northeast quar-
ter of section 8, 4s-2w, farthest
north well in the Hewitt field. This
well was drilled to a depth OF 244O
feet some time ago and temporar-
ily shut down. Formation at the
bottom Of the hole is blue shale.
Operations on this test Will be
closely watched due to its import
ance in determining the existence
of what Is believed by some to be a
fault lying between the location OF
this well and the present farthest
north producers in the Hewitt pool
Recent competitions Of wells in line
with the farthest north producers
have resulted in good production
and have caused some question as
to the existence of the fault as orig
inally mapped.
Another well was drilled some tim
ago offsetting the Humble-flewitt-Wa
ker No. on the west by the Merric
interests in the southeast corner OF tn
northwest quarter Of section 8. but
was also temporarily shut down at l67
feet,
More thar ordinary interest is bein
taken in the possibility OF extensio
Of the Hewitt pool to the north. ino'

sion has not as yet been condemned b

but am talking about evangelical

come like discord in a great syna-
ph0ny to people who don't read,

Look around at the destructive criti-

pin-whiskered NUTS, popular unbe-

false teachings, vain PHILOSOPHERS,
schisms, isms. We have universal
ism, hadeshisnn, Russellisn, NOR
monism, metaphysics, Christian
science and pandemonium OF cults,
with just enough religion to fioat
their fallacy, and all this-is cut loose
on this poor old sin cursed, fallen
world, to turn people away from
God. A great tide of worldliness is
pressing in upon the church from
every quarter that is paralyzing our
homes, and demoralizing the spirit

overwhelming need of the hour is
Spirit filled, blood-washed, fire-bap-
tized messengers of God with divine
fire burning in their souls, to UNI
mask the devices of the devil and
to tear down the strongholds of Sa-
tan, whether in high places or low.
God deliver us from these animat-

their pulpits and satisfying them
selves with defending denominations

theories, propounding pious plati-
tudes, splitting hairs, whiting moth

orical bouquets, when the very fire
of hell is raging all around them
in palaces and novels and anluse'

being swept away to eternal destruc
ton. A few days ago in the city Of
Chicago l sat in one Of the great

THE "FLAPPER" AND HER PA

From the St. Louis Post-Dispatch
 One can, without setting up as judge of feminine fashions, at least understand the at titude of the Chicago father who punched his 16-year-old daughter in the nose as the culmi- nation of series of circumstances which he presently related in police court.
 "She's tryin to be one of them flappers, Your Honor" explained the honest artisan. q buys her pair of good, stout shoes-and what does she do but throw 'em away and put on a pair of flimsy things with rubber boots over 'em-galoshes, she calls the boots. Faint right, I tells her, but what does she say? All the flappers is wearing 'em, she says. You're a 1910 model-back up!' she says. Next night Lcomes home after hard day, and there she . stands in front of the lookin' glass-pullin' out her eyebrows with pair of pliers! This is too much. Are you my daughter?' I says Or are you one of them flappers?' You flap outa here,' says she, or I'll give you somp'n to croak about she says An with that, Your Honor, busted her in the nose"
 It was shameful act, of course; the judge was lenient in making it only five and costs. We have seen how easy it is to start a fashion, and it would never do to ratify one whereby wrathful fathers would flatten their daughters noses. The profile of the nation must be pre- served. But, nevertheless, and for all that one see something of what was in that father S mind. Flap out! Imagine that

THE FIRST STEAMBOAT
From the Mobile Register.


 So fixed is the association between the name of Robert Fulton and "the~ first steamboat" that we have difficulty in believing anything contrary to our idea that Mr. Fulton was the inventor of the steam packet. It is very doubt full whether Mir. Fulton himself claimed any such honor He did start the New York-Albany Y line with the Clermont, and thereby did he be- come famous. But "in looking up the history of a dog-eared schoobook in the possession of a descendent of John Fitch who really did in vent the steamboat, we are told, reporter of the New York Times found it Impossible to avoid discovering that somebody was mistaken in attributng to Fulton the discovery of the steamboat" Fitch, it appears, "had a com mercial steam packet line carrying passengers on the Delaware river during 17S6," twenty years before the first voyage of the Cler- mont. Fitch, according to document dated 1848 and hung in the old Lorillard mansion in Bronx Park, successfully navigated Collect Pond during the summer of 1796 in small steamboat. "One John Hutchings, then lad, assisted Fitch in putting his boat together and among those most interested in his experi- ments were Robert Fulton and Robert A. Livingston, Esq"
 Hitch is not wholly without credit for his in- vention, it seems, for the New York Times re- minds us that the Encyclopedia Brittanica records his suicide at Bardstown, Ky, when he was broken-hearted by the fact that he "reaped nothing from the invention but disap- pointment and poverty" Nor should Fulton be without honor, for matter to whom the invention belonged, to him belonged the genius that brought it into recognized service and inaugurated new era in transportation. By tragic irony that appears universal, it is usually the genius such Fulton's which is remembered while that which was Fitch's is forgotten.
