FROM GLORY TO GLORY.

In our deep grief for the sud-
den, distressing death of Presi-
dent HARDING, we are remind
ed of the tribute paid by the
poet, N. P. Willis, to President
William H. Harrison, the first
President to die while in office.
The words are as applicable now
as they were then. Like Har-
rison's,
Harding's death fills the climax of
story,
He went on with the old stride, from
glory to glory.

PressErhere Ia no danger OF the

Fish constitutes the sole source OF

of research work to ferret out the
source OF tho worlds oil supply.
The scientist races the origin of
petroleum deposits to earthquakes
and similar volcanic disturbances
which. in early times. killed i'm
mense quantities of ish. changed
tho surface of the earth. and the
boundaries Of tho a and fresh
water bodies.
Extensive zones of 1sh remain
that form fish beds and like strata
are observed across areas of the
northern hemisphere" DR.. MacFar-
lane said. 'These remains are
cooval with rich bituminous oil
products. Such rocks or strata
might be termed producer rocks.
by subsequent earth movements
and resulting oil mlgrations this oil
is often found in porous sandstone
and like rocks. It Is certain that
vegetable remains did not enter into
the production OF crude petroleum
or kerogen. wlsch is wholly OF ami
NAL origin"
DR.. MacF'arlans believes his ds-
coyery will enable men to locate
with almost scientific accuracy new
oil deposits. which will result in the
cheaper production of oil and hasten
development OF It's commercial value
for motive power and heating pur-
poses.
Every new disturbance, like the
recent Japanese earthquake, result
in the development for new deposits
