Barbecued Shoat
Honors Physicians
By PEGGY ARNESS

Did you see the glow of freight
out at the Lake Sunday evening?
Did you smell the grand aroma of
roasting pig on the crisp air? If
you did, you should know that Jim
Smith, X. B. (Knight of the Bar
becue) was in his stride. For Jim
turned out the pride of his career,
and said career is long and sue
cessful.
At the pit by five o'clock Sunday
morning, while most of US were in
our beds, Jim spent the day until
four p. m. nursing his pig into
the acme of tenderness and flavor.
When word got around that the
barbecue was done, 45 Greenbelters
came and ate. Coleslaw, pickles,
bread, beer and cider-but the
barbecue was the real leading man
in the show. And Jim was the
Svengali.
Thought up originally by a
group of friends as a welcome
home party for Sam and Freddie
Berenberg, like Topsy it just grow
ed into a man-sized barbecue in
tended as a friendly gesture to-
wards the towns physicians, the
Berenbergs, the Morrises and Bill
Eisner. Illness in DR.. Eisner's
family kept him from participat-
ing in the fun. Personally, any
body that gets an invitation to one
of Jim's toothsome barbecues, and
has to miss it, is a target for SYM
pathy. When better barbecues are
"cued", / don't believe it.

Mr.. Goldfaden got the contact
and ideas leading up to the plac-
ing of the joy-wheel here while
attending the recent National
Physical Education Convention in
Cincinnati. A representative of
a playground equipment company
expressed a desire to set up one
of his large -go-rounds near
Washington in an effort to interest
officials of the Federal Public
Housing Authority in a large or
der.
In this manner the Greenbelt
kids will be first to frolic on this
unique contrivance for a lengthy
trial period. And the town has
the option of buying one or more
or none, as will be decided at a
later date.
A letter was received by Mr..
Goldfaden yesterday in effect con-
tanning assurance that the big
wheel will arrive in few days.
1t is not known just where the
merry -go-round will be set up,
but it is understood that it will be
in the main playground just below
the drinking fountain statue in
the shopping center or somewhere
in the newest section of town,
Ridge between Laurel Hill and
Research Roads or Ridge Road
between Laurel Hill Road and
Plateau Place. This latter site is
strongly favored, in as much as
there are no playground facilities
existing in that vicinity.

LESS STEEL TO
DRILL WELLS Is
1913 OUTLOOK

on famine or no oil famine. there is
to be no more steel for drilling oil
wells In the United States during the
coming year, according to official pro-
uouncement heard by the American
Petroleum Institute IN annual session
at Chicago. D. r. Knowlton, director
of production, OPC, said that cut Of
20 percent under 1912 consumption OF
steel win be necessary.
"Selective drilling Is bound to
come" he said. "And when It does,
YOU win find drilling in some areas
spread out to one wen TO 100 acres
maybe more-just enough drilling to
define field limits and let us know how
much oil we can plan on recovering
Materials are Just that scarce"
He proposed sacrificing wells on this
basis:
IA weIls-those from which mater
isls can be made readily available
will include presently idle wells, high
water-oil-ratio wells. high gas-oil-
ratio wells, closely spaced wells, and
other production facilities that may
be dispensed with without injuring
ultimate recovery.
LIB weIIs-that are presently being
produced profitably, but which may
be looked to as a source of materials
and equipment If the materials short
age continues to be critical and the
war is Prolonged type Of well that
is the backbone Of the nations oil pro-
duction.
1.-THE weaker, unnecessary wells
must be looked to as a source of ma
terials with which to drill and main
tain better wells, capable of contribut-
ing more to the war program"
This speech was a bit discordant
With much Of the program. William
R. Boyd, Jr., president of APP, pointed
1ut the drop in drilling and warned
certainly q situation does confront
he industry that is fraught with dan
ger and one which should be critical
Y examined by those in authority. He
added: ut is historic fact in oildom
hat price regulates the tempo of the
drill" He commended |
Harold Ickes, commenting "ti1is is the
anne man whom we previously had
egarded as our arch-enemy. He Is
Ioing a grand Job Of it."
The session was informed that by
he end of 1884 American refiners viii
e producing 100000 Dbl Of high
ctane fuels by modern catalytic
racking processes the newest of which
he Thermofor process, was described
Y one of the speakers.

TURNER VALLEY
YIELD DROPS AT
ALARMING RATE

Oil wells Of Alberta produced S0.S61
barrels Of oil In September, 81 900
barrels less than September, 1871. The
production did not include 2,400 bar
rels Of oil recovered from the tar
sands Of Fort McMurray and which
promises 10 become In time an enor-
nous source Of supply.
Sales Of crude oil and from the re-
covery Of naphtha from the wells Of
Turner valley gave operators a rev.
enue Of over $1,O00,O00 during the
month.
The decline in production is attri-
buted to cutting down drilling. with
the consequent reduction in the num-
Der Of new wells brought in, and to
shrinkage IN yield Of oil wells in
Turner valley.
During September there was only
light drilling in the valley, with two
wells completed Two drilling licenses
we're issued and five for wells outside
that field
The big oil news IN the month was
completion Of the No. wen Of Stand
ard Of British Columbia in Taber with
a daily yield on the pump Of $50 bar
rels Of heavy crude oil daily.
Bulk Of production came from Tur-
ner valley but Red Coulee on the
Montana border made 1888 barrels Of
light crude during the month and
Plains in Taber produced 1,645 bar
rels The Is wells at Vermillion pro-
duced 8,472 barrels.

FROZEN WATER PIPES?
Red heads, for all their smuggling
reputation, won't help you much when
wintry blasts freeze the water pipes in
your plant. Pipes have been thawed
in many different ways but perhaps
the safest, cleanest, and quickest way
is to use your electric arc welder.
The current from the electric weld
er is carried through the frozen pipe
by connecting the welding cables to
each end Of the frozen section of pipe
The current heats the pipe, melts the
ice and presto; the job is done. II
you have ever thawed pipes under a
frame building with a blow torch, or
dug frozen ground to get to a frozen
pipe, this method sounds too easy to
be practical-yet it is.
Mines and industrial plants have
such varied piping arrangements that
it is impossible to give any general
rule for attaching the cables from the
welding set to the piping for most ef-
fective results. If both ends of the
frozen pipe is underground, such as
a service from a water main to house,
then it may be most convenient to at
tach one cable to the closest fire n.y.
drant and the other one to the exposed
pipe in the house.
The following table gives the rec
commended current for thawink iron
pipes Of various sizes, and the approx
innate time required for thawing:

BeryLLiII7l In
HeLUite Found
In NeW Mexico

A New Mexico mineral deposit that
may prove to be a new source Of the
vital war metal beryllium Is being
examined by the Geological Survey.
The discovery of beryllium and the
Identification Of the containing min
eral as helvite was announced in Nov
ember, 1871, by L. w. Strock.
The beryllium occurrences are at
Iron Mountain, near the northern end
of the Sierra Cuchillo In Sierra and
Socorro Counties, New Mexico. Bodies
Of contact-metamorphic rock, which
consist chiefly of magnetic, garnet,
and pyroene, contain remarkable
amounts of intimately associated he'll
vite In several places, although at no
other deposit has this mineral been
found In sufficient quantities to war
rant consideration as an ore Of beryl-
lium. The helvite is a zinc-bearing
variety that might be called heIvite-
danalite. It looks much like garnet,
and it seems entirely possible that the
beryllium- bearing mineral has been
overlooked In garnet rocks of other
contact-metamorphic deposits, Of
which many are known in the western
states.
The properties that distinguish the
helvite from the garnet are as fol-
lows: The garnet is dusky brown In
color, whereas the helvite ranges from
reddish brown to pale, creamy yellow.
Shades between mahogany red and
amber brown CRidgways color stand
ards) are most characteristic, although
the color varies within a hand specf-
men or even within single crystal.
The helvite crystals are isometric,
tetrahedral in habit (pos-
sibly because of twinning), and COM
monty deeply striated The helvite
crystals are rather brittle; their hard
ness is about that Of feldspar (6), but
less than that of garnet (6.5-7.5).
Their specific gravity, which Is slightly
more than 3.3, Is less than that Of
garnet. The luster is resinous to viter-
Gus. Finely powdered helvite is brown
ish yellow.

program by local officials of the Wage
and Hour and Public Contracts Divi-
sion is now In motion, it was an
nounced by L. A. Hill, Minneapolis Re-
gional Director.
This action is the direct owtgrowth
of a national meeting in Washington
last week under the auspices of the
National War Labor Board at which
the whole wage control structure was
outlined.
1.-THE field offices Of the Division are
now prepared to handle inquiries
about the sterilization program" Mr..
Hill said. Wage and Hour officials in
this area include:
william G. Maloney, Senior In
spector, 303 Lewisohn Bldg, Butte. q

Edwin K. Duncan, Inspector, $50
Federal Bldg, Great Falls.
Raymond A. Wells, Inspector, Space
with the Division Of Unemployment
Compensation Billings.
These field representatives will adj
wise inquirers Of their status under
the sterilization order. Where en-
ployers and employees wish to apply
for permission to increase wages under
the law the Wage and Hour authori-
ties will help them fiji out applica-
tions, which win be turned over to the
regional War Labor Board director for
action
THE Wage and Hour and Public
Contracts offices will serve purely as
and operative arm for the WLB In this
said Mr.. Hill "Ours will be
a screening job" to take care of the
routine questions arising under the
wage program and to assist the public
in filing applications. The wage con-
troll program was set up as an anti
initiation program under authorization
Of the Presidents Executive Order NO.
