SCHOOL TICKETS TO
n. C.FA|R RECEIVED
5000 at Superintendent
Office for Early Dis
tribution

Superintendent e. M. Rollins, of
the city and county schools, announc-
ed today he had received 5000 free
tickets for school children to attend
the North Carolina State Fair in Ra-
leigh twoweek hence. The fair is
distributing 100000 tickets to the pub
lie schools of the State, and children
who obtain them from their teach
ers will be admitted free to the fair
on Friday, October Is.
Mr.. Rollins will distribute the tick
cts to the several schools of the city
and the county Immediately, placing
them with the principals. The prin-
cipals will, in turn, apportion them
among the teachers, who will place
them in the hands of the children.
On each complimentary ticket is a
personal invitation from Governor
Hoey for all of the States school chill
dren to attend the fair on Friday, Oc-
tober Is, the day set aside especially
for Tar Heel youngsters. There are
no strings attached to the offer and
the children may attend with or with
out their teachers. The tickets, each
bearing the picture of the governor,
will be honored either way.
Joining with DR.. ]. S. Dorton, of
Shelby, in expressing the urgent hope
that as many children as possible
take advantage of the free visit to
their fair, the governor said: mo
fair is complete unless children have
an opportunity to see the exhibits and
enjoy the entertainment features. For
that reason, we are making it pos
sible for every boy and girl in North
Carolina to be special guests at the
tair We want to see the Midway full

CHRISTIAN SCIENCE

Sunday morning service, II
o'clock at Court House hall.
Sunday school, 10 o'clock.
The public is cordially invited
to attend.
Ancient and Modern Necrom-
ancy, Alias Mesmerism and Hyp-
notism, Denounced" is the subject
of the lesSon-sermon which will
be read in all Churches of Christ,
Scientist, on Sunday, Nov. %.
The golden text is do they not
err that devise evil? But mercy
and truth shall be to them that
devise good" PRO. l4:22).
Among the citations which COM
prise the lesson-sermon are the
following from the Bible: LAS for
such as turn aside unto their
crooked ways, the Lord shall lead
them forth with the workers of
iniquity: but peace shall be upon
Israel" (Psm. 1850.
The lesson-sermon also includes
the following passages from the
Christian Science textbook, "Sci-
ence and Health with Key 10 the
Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy:
Mankind must learn that evil is
not power. It's so-called despotism
is but a phase of nothingness.
Christian Science despoils the
kingdom of evil. and pre-eminent-
ly promotes affection and virtue
in families and therefore in the
community (pp 102. 103).

THE BRADFORD OIL FIELD
A PRODUCER FOR 65 YEARS

If oil men had laurel wreaths to
bestow, they probably would hand
the congratulatory foliage in one
large bunch to the Bradford Field
Of Pennsylvania. This old-timer
discovered in 1871, produced a.
574,500 barrels in 1886! Other
fields have come inland have
gone out-but Bradford has been
a symbol of dependability for IS
years, steadily producing crude oil
from which lubricants are manu-
featured.
The huge output of 1896, how
ever, represents scientific progress
as well as dependable production
Old Bradford is having her glands
rejuvenated, water drive is being
applied, the pressure of water
pumped in from the surface strip
ping from the sands far below oil
which escaped earlier production
technique.
The success with water drive in
the old field is encouraging re-
pressuring operations with water
air, and gas in other fields. Pro-
duction engineers again are taking
notes from Bradford's book, anc
fields which were discovered long
after Bradford and Quit producing
long before, soon may be back ir
competition. incidentally, repres-
surfing is one more satisfactory
answer to declining production

TOMORROW'S PROGRESS
IN THE AVIATION FIELD

Stunt flights may catch the
headlines, but tomorrow's big
progress in aviation is being made
right now in laboratory test-tubes
and petroleum refineries. All this
trouble planes starting on long
distance flights now are having
with carrying an adequate supply
of fuel may diSappear-at least
the problem definitely is headed
for solution-through the devel-
opment and use Of high-octane
gasoline.
The average family automobile
is getting along well on 70 octane
fuels. but the airplane needs 100
to 100 octane fuel+and is going
to get them. High-octane means
more power and speed from the
same airplane motor, and larger
pay-loads. greater cruising range,
and vastly improved safety in ali
travel.
Development of the new fuels
has been under way since 1928
when refinery technologists went
to work to meet a demand of the
U. s. Army Air Corps for more
power and speed without increas-
ing engine size. An 81 octane fue.
pointed the way. It gave the wal
birds a full third more horsepowe,
per cubic inch of engine displace-
ment, much faster speed, quicke,
take-off. and rapid climb. Com
mercial air lines took the hint
asked the technologists to con.
slider the needs of air freight anc
passenger transports, and the re-
suit is that real long distance fly
ing is just around the corner-ane
coming fast!

LOOKING BENEATH THE
SURFACE OF THE EARTH

Modern methods of oil-well
drilling, and of oil production as
well, enable Engineers to determine
with reasonable exactitude just
how much oil Is available from a
given field. As a matter of fact, SO
great is the progress of the past
II years or so, that it is now COM
paratively a simple task to esti-
mate the amount. of oil in a field.
Drilling exploratory wells is one
way to obtain the measurement.
Pressure existing a mile or more
beneath the earth's surface tells
the engineer what help he may
expect from nature in lifting the
oil; also what Sub-Surface condi-
tions may be encountered. Explor-
atory drilling once was as much q
hit-or-miss proposition as was oil
prospecting. Now both are sciences
not exact, perhaps, but with much
of the guess-work eliminated.
Geophysical surveying with seis-
mograph determints the are OF
the field. Improved coring practice
discloses the thickness of oil
bearing formations. Analysis OF
well samples reveals the percent
age of port space filled with oil.
These data, with a report on the
quantity and quality of oil al
ready produced, provide sufficient
evidence for the engineer to reach
a fairly accurate conclusion as to
the fields future yield.
These evidences of progress in
eliminating guess-work tend to in
crease the confidence of oil men
in their growing ability to find oil
wherever it may be and when
ever it is wanted. Once in a while
they make errors, but by and large
they are using science to better
advantage than did their prede-
cessors-and they aren't depend
ing on luck!

ROSEBUD COUNTY DAM
IN BIG HORN COUNTY

I read in a paper, sometime ago,
that the Tongue River dam was in
Rosebud county. I would like to
know when Mr.. Lee and Mr..
Peterson, quit paying taxes in
Big Horn county. The dam is be-
ing built on the Rasmus Lee
homestead, four miles above the
Rosebud county line, but if you
visited the dam you would think
it was being built in Minnesota, as
far as the workmen are concerned.
I don't know where the fault lies,
but it is time something was be-
ing done about it.
Or perhaps they are going to do
just the same as they did with the
grasshopper and cricket control in
this part of the county. I wonder
if the unemployment office is
closed in Hardin; if not it ought
to be. All the hiring of men is
being done in Miles City, and you
can tell it if you visit the dam.
Big Horn county will lose IS or 16
tax payers when this dam is COM
pleted. Will Rosebud and Custer
counties pay taxes on this flooded
area? I don't think so. Now is the
time for the county assessor, and
not a deputy, to think about get
ting down and letting the con-
tractors know this is Big Horn
county. The depreciation won't be
much, as this is all new machin-
cry, and if you tax them the
same as is farmers, school district
No. l will be able to pay trans
portation to the pupils having to
walk or ride owe three miles to
school.
There are at least so or go men
in this part of the county, look
ing for work, most Of them over
As years of age, but still wanting
work. Don't you think that if
and Custer counties are
going to have all the benefits of
this project, surely they ought to
be satisfied and employ the men
that are available in Big Horn
county?
I understand that $50 of all
persons employed on w. P. A.
must be certified as in need of
relief by the case workers of the
welfare board, and $50 of the
money spent by w. P. A. must 60
to pay relief workers or purchase
materials to make their work pos
Sible. Ha! Ha!

would buy this one.

TOO MUCH GUSH
ABOUT THE OIL GUSHERS

"Gushers" represent the more
dramatic and romantic in petrole-
UNI industry operations, but as an
actual matter of fact the bulk of
the worlds oil supply comes from
wells which no longer "gush."
Average production of the $40, 900
wells in the United States, for in
stance, is only 81 barrels a day.
This is called settled production,
and is the type of production up
on which thousands of oil-field
workers. refinery employees, farm
ers, royalty owners, and others de-
pend for their livelihood.
There r other wells, known to
oil men as "strippers," whose
average production is small but
steady. In Pennsylvania, where
there are 80, 1850 oil wells, the aver
age production per well per day is
only about one-half barrel per
day.
There may be enough motor We
hicles in the United States to take
every resident for a ride, stimuli
taneously, but if the petroleum in
dustry were forced to depend upon
any one medium of transportation
to move its products from well to
refinery and from refinery to
market, there would be a shortage
within comparatively few days! So
huge is the demand for, and so
great the consumption of petrole-
UNI products, that the industry
must use virtually every available
medium of transportation to get
its products into the hands of
consumers. Oil companies operate
or use thousands of miles of pipe
line. conveying crude oil, gasoline,
and natural gas. They are among
the largest railroad customers,
themselves owning more than
100000 tank cars. Petroleum water
tonnage comprises more than 80
per cent of the country's water
borne traffic. Oil bargeS ply every
navigable stream. while oil tank
ships carry the American flag on
all Seven Seas. Petroleum tank
trucks travel every main highway.
