GEOLOGIST


When Major Howard visited the
we'll the owner, Robert Lent, wa
absent, reported to be purchasing
pumping equipment. Lent Is q
former Greybull, Wyo. oil operator
The only sample I was able to
get, due to me absence OF the
owner, was a sand sample from the
dump box, which showed oil satur-
alton" Howard reports. This con-
sists OF a medium coarse sand, with
rounded pebbles Of granite, mica,
and quartz, about q half inch in
diameter. The oil is Of 81 gravity
S5 per cent gasoline, As per cent
light distillate and 20 per cent wax
dtstillate and reSidium.
Bailed Six Barrels
They are reported 70 have taken
six barrels OF oil out OF the hole and
then shut down, the oil standing
loo feet from the top in a total
reported depth OF s64 feet.
"As nearly as / can determine,
the placing of the production In the
Dakota sand Is correct, even though
the granite is only 20 miles away
to the east. This granite did not
visit, due to heavy rains and bad
roads, but it may be q boss. !"
Major Howard checked the ge-
ology only supeTficially. There Is
a topographic condition which
takes the aspect Of a very general
dome rising from about
six miles north, south, east and
west, very gently, until It approach
es its crest, when there It is more
pronounced. There seems to be no
erosional feature in the way Of
coulees or otherwise.
There are a number OF shallow
gas wells on the structure which
follow very closely in depth the
topography, varying only some two
OF three feet. / did not have time
to check up on any Of these, but ran
into Bill Hanlon, who had spent
some time there, and in whom /
have a great deal OF confidence,
having known him for years as a
very successful operator, and he
had checked on all OF these wells
There are no gas wells off
the flanks Of the topographic
high"
So far as can be determined,
there has been no high pressure
since the reported oil
strike. Many other wells drilled
in Minnesota have been purely pro-
motional but the Wheaton well mas
been financed by Lent
himself. Most operators have scoffed
at the reported strike and it has
been difficult to get a competent
report, until now.

NEW VALLEY
SONG SLATED
AT BIG FAIR

The singing of the new Imperial
Valley Song by a chorus of a thou
sand voices will be one of the many
features of opening day at the Md
Winter Fair, March 6, D. v. Stewart
announced today.
Gilbert H. Wilson of Holtville,'
Stewart said, has written a true
valley song which because of its
swing and vigor and beauty Is well
worthy of its subject The music
which he has written is in common
time, and while original and tune
full, is easy to sing and lends itself
readily to mass effects. While the
schools and other organizations are
giving the fullest cooperation in
practicing for this mammoth chorus.
we feel sure that all of the audience
On opening day will want to join
in the singing of this song"

Groceries Bring
Grief to Suspects

Groceries and beverages, includ-
ing lug of garlic, brought nothing
but grief to three Ell Centre Me-
groes because officers show strong
inclination to connect the articles
with the burglary of the Maggie
warehouse On East Main street. The
trio was arraigned in Ell Centre
justice court Monday and prelimin-
airy hearing set for February Is.
They are held in jail on 500 each.
Clarence Hoston and Thomas Bel
lamy, jr., are accused of burglary
while Thomas Bellamy, ST., is ac-
cused of being an accessory after
the fact The youths were accused
of burglarizing the warehouse. The
middleaged Negro parent is charg-
ed with moving the groceries to a
safer place to avoid trouble with
his sons landlord.
The articles missing from the
warehouse were: sweet potatoes,
Irish potatoes, raisins, beer, wine,
and the lug of garlic.

COMPLETED IN
KINGS STORE

Extensive improvements under
way at Kings for The past month
or more are now completed and the
firm announces presentation of the
new spring merchandise in thor
oughly different and modernjzed at
mosphere next Thursday, Friday
and Saturday. New departments
have been added, while others have
been either enlarged or removed to
more spacious quarters. With new
modernistic fixtures and other
equipment the store now ranks with
the finest establishments Of its kind
in the country.
Previous to the recently complet-
ed improvements, a powerful all
conditioning system for the COM
fort of the stores patrons in the
warmer months, was installed. In
addition a scientific daylight diff
fusing system replaced the former
style of lighting.
One of the outstanding features OF
the newly modernized Kings is the
Shop for Young Moderns', an ex-
clusively appointed space, set away
from the regular ready-to-wear de-
partment, in which only the high
err types of dresses, coats, suits and
sportswear will be displayed.
On the mezzanine there is an
other innovation, the Budget
Shop, wherein are displayed fash
ion frocks, coats, suits, hats, and
lingerie at lower than usual prices
Because the King store recently af-
| filiated itself with a buying organ
ization in New York, whose men,
bers buy upwards to half a billion
dollars in goods annually, the values
in the new budget shop will be as
attractive as the styles will be
timely.

HOLLYWOOD, FEB. II. UD-

due for another bigtime sister act.

Bennett, Lillian and Dorothy Gish,

madge is no less than brunette Oliv-
in DeHavilland, who has already
goaled the public playing with stall
wart Enrol Flynn of the Warner lot.
Unlike their illustrious predeces-
sors, however, the sisters insist on
different names, and Fontaine held
out for a contract clause forbidding
RIO to publicize her as DeHavil-
lands sister. DeHayilland is the
family handle, Fontaine being the
name of their mother by a second
marriage.
Chief Fontaine Rayer at radio is
Hibernian Cliff Reid, who has just
finished producing 1.-THE Man Who
Found HIMSELF her second picture.
The 19-year-old lass has everything,
Reid swears, and should hit the
top within six months.
Fontaine is a Jesse l.. Lasky dis
coyery. He nipped her from under
the Warner Brothers noses while
she was doing legitimate play in

calls for 5000 a week. She'll do
