Oil Field Items
For Past Week
Syndicate, Lab ontan
and Calneva Busy
In All Three
Districts!

The oil situation in the Lahontan
field has shown some advancement
as the Syndicate has been working
two crews without interruption. The
placing of the perforated casing has
been carried down within less than
eighty feet of the bottom of the hole,
which is S036 feet. Precaution and
care has been the plan as it is real
lied that the small casing is subject
to more injury than larger.
During the week constant drilling
and bailing has been in operation and
as depth has been attained more gas
has shown than since the hole was
started. Those familiar with oil in
dications are more than satisfied
with the results of the bailings as
they show the presence of oil in the
muck that is raised. It is believed
that the next ten days should bring
the new casing to the bottom of the
hole, where oil sands were encoun-
tered. 1t is with this in view that
the people closest in are keeping a
daily tab on the advancement More
interest in the progress of the Syndi-
cate has been shown the past week
than since work was resumed on the
property.
At the Lahontan, work is suspend
ed temporarily owing to the lack Of
eight inch casing which is to be sup
piled before it will be possible to
continue downward. Following the
cement job which was perfect and
the water shut off the cement has
been drilled through and it was de-
termined that before any greater
depth could be made the hole will
have to be cased Mr.. Holman is
making arrangements for this need
at the we'll.
The Calneva is ready to go. Mr..
Robinson, upon his return from Elko,
has been busy making ready for
run and when work starts there
should be no shut down. Casing is
on hand to carry the hole down well
past the 1000 mark, deeper than the
Fallon Oil & Gas we'll, where excel.
lent showings were had.
tion at Elko Mr.. Robinson stated
that this section carries every indi-
cation of oil and he is confident that
with the three rigs working in the
field the development of oil in that
field is not distant.

Nj. & M. BASKETEERS CLOSE
YEAR IN WHIRLWIND STYLE

The curtain was run down on NJ.
& MS basket ball season last Fri
day, when the highly touted Crooks
vile five was swamped by the larg-
est margin of the season. The Wis
itors were unable to stop the on
slaught of our heroes, who kept the
scorer busy tallying their SO points,
while the boys from Perry county
left only seven points on the rec
ords. Every man in the Big Red
uniforms played at the top of his
form and it was a fitting climax for
such a successful season. It was
the last game in which Gorrell, Jen-
kins, Tolbert and Carder represent
ed their Alma Mater, but these boys
left a name in high school basket
ball that will not be forgotten. Jen-
kins on account Of an injury was
held out of the first half, but after
being in short time in the second
half he. added ten points to the
score. and played most of the game
himself. Gorrell played whirlwind
style and although. not attempting
many shots covered the floor with
his speed. Tolbert played his usual
guarding game, but such
games are not the ones in which
"Tubby" stars. Carder showed his
worth on the offense by sinking two
fielders in short succession. Much
more will be seen of the remainder
of the team, as all of them have at
least two more years, but it is
enough to say that Hooper register
ed 81 points, Newsome IL, and that
it was impossible to penetrate the
defense of Lewis and Osborne All
though the season did not end SO
well financially, in consideration OF
victories, We have won ten games
while our opponents took six. Our
scores totalled 325 and those of our
opponents reached 242. With four
letter-men. left from this years
squad, a championship team is eX-
pected for next year. Lineup anc

ALBERT T.. BEST OF THIS
PLACE DIES s q DDEND DY

Funeral services for Mr.. A. T.
Best whose death occurred here
early last Friday morning. were
held Sunday, conducted by Elder =.
HI. Steed. At 1890 a. M, brief SER
vices were held at the residence, fol-
lowing which the body was taken to
the Malta Church of Christ, where
further services were held. There
was a large attendance at both SER
vices. The exercises at the house
consisted of song by a quartet
composed Of Mr.. p. G.. Ball, Miss
Ada Hatton, Mrs. D. c. Jackson and
Mr.. e. J.. Arrick. and prayer by the
minister. At the church the quartet
sang two numbers and Mr.. Wayne
Jackson and Mrs. Jackson sang a
duet, and Elder Steed gave a fine
and appropriate gospel message.
The closing number by the quartet
was the beautiful song adapted
from Tennyson's Crossing the
Bar" Interment was made in the
Malta cemetery. The. minister in
charge of the funeral read a sketch
of the life of the deceased, which
was in substance as follows:
Albert T. Best was born in Penn
township, Morgan county, O., Oct.
/, 1847, and died March 16, 1928,
aged Is years. months and Is
DAYS. He was the oldest son of
Addison and Alcinda Best. He was
united in marriage to Martha e.
Adrain Feb. 12, 1859. To this un-
ion were born two sons and three
daughters: Mrs. Alcinda Osborn,
now deceased; Mrs. Rettie Nice
swanger of McConnelsviIle; Reveda
of Ia
and Mrs. Vesta Smith OF Bradford,
III. His wife died July 90, 1905.
He was again married May 8, 1914,
to Mrs. Salina Walraven who sur
wives him. He leaves 10 Iaouan, a
devoted wife, foGr children, ten
grandchildren, and eight great
brother, John Best, of GAINESVILLE,
Goodine of Penn township. One
sister, Mrs. Mary Mcdaniel, and one
brother, Will Best, and two sisters
in childhood preceded him in death.
He united with the Church of
Christ at Antioch number of years
ago, and had since lived faithful
Christian life. He was a faithful
husband, a kind father and a good
to help those in need His entire
life was spent On a farm near the
piece Of his birth. with the excep-
ton of the last 13 years spent in
McConnelsville, where he was resid-
ing at the time of his death. He was
very industrious, always busy with
some task when health would per-
nit. Although he had been in fail
ing health for some time, his death
came suddenly, with shock to all.
During his declining years he was
very patient, and all that devoted
wife could do for his comfort, was
not left undone.
In this connection the wife and
children of Mr.. Best wish to thank
all who rendered service in any way
or showed kindness and sympathy
III this time of their bereavement.
