Shot placed in the hole he meas
ured the hole carefully with a
steel line to get the exact point
where the Sunburst sand was known
to be. He took no chances Of error
and much to the disgust of the
nitro glycerin crew-measured 1t
four or five times. The shot was
placed at the precise inch to cover
the Sunburst sand.
A time bomb was set and the
crew sat down to eat lunch.
Poynter had just gotten up to sign
the requisition for Jack Dillon,
to pay for the shot, when the shot
went off. POINTER had just written
the letter "P" of his signature when
one of the crew shouted: Look
at that flow" The story goes
that Poynter dropped the requisi-
ton blank and pencil and made a
leap for the valve on the control
head. Twisted pieces of iron a foot
long, chunks of cement as big as
bricks and quantities of smaller
debris from the casing, cement and
side walls were coming out, max
ing 1t difficult to close the valve.
Which incident brings out an
other element of the luck: that
although ONeil hoped to get a
five or 1O-barrel well to validate
the lease. he had made all prep
erations for a gusher. He had a
control head on the casing, con-
nected onto tanks. Before the val
We could be closed against the ter
rifle pressure, considerable oil es-
capped but most of it ran into the
rotary stump holes and so was saved,
upholding the tradition that the
Santa Rita would just as soon lose
a barrel OF oil as lose the right
eye of its alert and watchful gen.
eral counsel.
Observers say that while the
element of luck was present, it
was mixed with about three other
elements essential to success in
the oil business.

TABLE%- Food
 Suggestions By Mrs. Mary E. DaguO

The sun may be scorching, the cir gultry, but don't be deceived by the complaint that it's ito hot to eat" Hot weather months are the time when wise housewives plan nose carefully the meals to set be- fore their families.
 The first rule is that calories con- sumption should be low.
 The heat, that much-talked-of humidity, and the general tendency to avoid physical activity whenever possible make 1t unnecessary to provide e diet rich in heat-produc- ing foods.
 Eating to Keep Cool
 But meals must be rourishing. If the family is to keep healthy and even tempered during June, July and August, the foods served should be easily digested. The stomach is as sensitive to heat as the rest of the body and resents being overtax- ed and overworked. Fresh fruits, vegetables in quantity, meat or Q meat or Q meat substitute once day, and plenty of milk to drink will supply the clements of e we'll balanced diet.
 Don't depend on iced beverages to keep your temperature down Sudden chilling of the stomach may create discomfort.
 If you must have iced drinks, sig them slowly. Eat frozen desserts the same way, for this will create more

Your Children
By OLIVE ROBERTS BARTON

of everywhere are still happy enough in their philosophical way. They laugh, they play after Q fashion and take life as 1t comes with- out @ whine or complaint.
 The thing that happens to our own shielded offspring between babyhood and school-age seems to be lacking. They continue to be spartans and self-sorrow Is Q word unknown.
 Concentration on self and its attendant miseries affects poor children and rich alike. Luxury and possessions issue no insurance against these weaknesses of char acter.
 It all seems to develop from Q general 'awareness" or suspicion that life is not being kind enough. Tn way 1t cannot be helped, but parents can do something to com bat 1t. They can avoid overdoing sympathy and nurse along the philosophy of "us" that Jimmy had ct two instead of the T" of later years.
 If modern civilization weakena It's people individually, what good is 1t? The parents of today must, I think, face this problem and their responsibility toward society by turning the eyes oi their growing children out in- stead of in, and discouraging hate and envy, the natural progeny oi self-pity.

Paris. (UP)--Beach clothes pc" come more amusing every year. This season they have leaped from rather masculine lines to 6 purely feminine silhouette. Pajamas are definitely out of the picture and few beach slacks are shown. These garments have been replaced by short romp- CTS. pinafores, knee-length ekirts and split-skirt dresses. <.
 The actual swimming suit itself is even more revealing than before wdith just the tiniest of brassieres and brief shorts to be worn Tor swimming or summing on the beach. This costume Is accompanied py Q tailored skirt and jacket Q ran entire sports dress to be slipped on Tor lunch or for cocktails.
 one of the newest costumes shown is in satin cire cloth that is waterproof and fade-proof. A small brassiere, shorts and Q ridicu- lous skirt, which fastens ct the front waist, then hangs open to the floor, covering only the back of the legs and hips, are made from bright red material dotted in white.
 For those who enjoy swimming, the fancy costumes of cire satin, water-proof velvet end similar 111a- terials are impractical. They are made chiefly for persons who ike to sun themselves, acquire Q nice tan and then paddle their toes in the water.
 For practical purposes, the same woolen suits worn for years still are shown. These suits, when knit by hand, are particularly attractive as the colorS offer Q wider range of ehoine

Your Baby's Health
Child May Perspire And Catch Cold
 If It Is Dressed Too Warmly

As a result of being overdressed, child perspires freely. If it then kicks off its covers, or some of its clothing, 1t will become chilled.
 There is increasing evidence that sudden changes in temperature are harmful to health. Of course, a child must be protected against cold, and should be suitably covered when 1t is taken out in cold weather.
 On the other hand, during very hot days or nights, many babies sleep better while wearing only a diaper and flannelet, or cotton, gown.
 There has been much discussion as to whether babies should wear cotton, wool, silk, or rayon, or mix lures of these fabrics. Tn general, cotton is not warm material, as 1t readily conducts, or carries off, heat. It can be boiled or sterilized, how ever, without damage.
 Wool is 8 warm material because 1t is @ poor conductor of heat. It is sometimes more irritating to the skin than is cotton, and is usually more difficult to wash. Wool must be cleaned with lukewarm water, be- cause boiling water and strong soaps harden and other wise harm It's fibers.
 Silk is not Q warm material, and some babies are sensitive to It. Rayon is not warm, either, and must be washed with the same care that Is given wool or silk.
 To overcome the irritation of woolen fabrics, and yet retain their heat value, clothing now is made with cotton on one face and wool on the other.
 Tests made by investigators showed that ribbed knit cottons stretch from one-third to one-half in washing. Cotton flannels and fleece-lined garments lose much of their fuzz in washing. Woolen fabrics, rayon, and bird's-eye are not changed much by washing.
 In hospitals, knitted diapers have been found to outwear other varieties.
 Nose people nowadays must con- slider the cost of various fabrics. cot- ton is the cheapest. Cotton and rayon mixtures cost slightly more. Wool and cotton, or wool and rayon, are next most expensive. Pure wool is still more costly, and silk and wool is the most ex- pensive mixture.

= PARENTS

There is one flaw in the title of civilization as a benefactor to humanity. Under the motto T Help Everyone" should be warning in smaller type, T also teach self-pity and jealousy"
 A child of two with intelligent handling is just about the best sport there Is. He may weep for minute after @ tumble, or nurse his knee for a split second with out any fuss at all. But by the time he is four his parents won- der where all that stoicisrn has fled. They have carefully avoid ed dramatics over accidents or mistaking pampering for good care, yet here is Jimmy bowling his head off for comparatively nothing.
 Acquire Self Pity
 The answer is that somewhere along the line of childish experi- ence, Jimmy has picked up the germ of self-pity. He has become overly-aware of himself.
 When he was two or three years old, the same Jimmy would rush in beaming and announce in an excited stutter that Dickie next door had 0 new tricycle.. A windfall, to Dickie was occasion for rejoicing.
 Now two years later Jimmy comes in and demands 8 wheel like Dicks. When told he can't have one just now, he sulks or leases or cries and then goes out and tells his pal that he wouldn't have an old green tricycle. like that anyway. Jealousy. He does not quite like Dickie as well now as he used to.
 Little Barbarlans Happy
 I've been reading Q lot in the past few months about the peoples of other lands, the barbarian or half civilized races of both tropics and the polar spaces, and about the children in those byways not yet included in the slow developing humanities.

GIOriting Yourself
By Alicia Hart

"Gy pet theory about keeping cool in summer has to do with makeup" says Marie Wilson, one of Hollywood's prettiest stars. T think every woman needs two baths a day in hot weather, plenty of cologne and clean, fresh clothes, Of course, but for real comfort, she ought to acquire the 1O-minute makeup habit.
 we all know that 1t is Q bad idea indeed to apply fresh powder and rouge over stale cosmetics, but, during the hottest months, this pro- cedure is even worse for the skin. Perspiration-norInal on any face when the temperature hover around 9O--plus powder and dust from the air, forms a dingy cake-like film that no amount of fresh powder can hide.
 Patched Makeup Lecks We'll
 GrOOmed Look
 "Unless you begin each makeup with a thorough cleansing, you nev- CT will look crisp and well turned out. By the end of summer, your pores will be clogged and your skin decidedly grayish and unattractive. Anyway, there's something about rneticulously clean skin that makes me feel cooler"
 Here's the routine as she does 1t in exactly ten minutes.
 First, she cleans her face with soap and water. One with very dry skin can substitute cleansing cream, followed by tonic, for the soap and water. Then she srnooths on Q good liquid foundation. Powder is next, followed by dry rouge and lipstick.
 Naturally, if you are Q cream rouge addict, this should be sE1oothed on before you powder. Simply put Q speck of the paste on the apex of each cheek, then blend carefully. Cream Rouge Easy to Apply After
 Learning Art
 You may think that dry rouge is easier to work with, but once you have mastered the art of applying Q cream variety, this will seem just as simple. Anyway, paste. set with powder, stays on longer than Q dry type. In fact, if you have picked good brand of cream rouge, dt wilI remain clear and bright for three hours, at the end of which time you ought to have another 10-nainute makeup.
 If you use mascara, you must allow five extra minutes. This is step that requires more time and skill than any of the others. Howe ever, especially in summer, it's . pretty good idea to omit mascara during daytime hours. Unless your lashes are absolutely colorless or so blonde that they look like nothing at oil, better use mascara only Tn the evening.
