MR. E. DeGOLYER HOME
Mr. E. DeGolyer, head of the geo- 1
logical department of the Pearson Oil

from Tampico, Mex., being met at

id sou. lie will be at home only a

York City some time in April, where
l e will be in the main office of the
company for some time.
He says conditions are peaceful in
Tampico, no indications of trouble be-
ing manifest on the surface, but
there's a feeling of uneasiness under-
neath. Messrs. A. W. McCoy and
I 'ooert Goodrich, who have been work-
ing in the field some seventy-five
miles south of Tampico, came up into
that city ten days ago, and are there
awaiting developments." While there
vere no overt acts against Americans,
there was a feeling such acts might
be committed at any time. Mr. De-
Golyer does not look for any trouble,

! Somewhat of a sensation has been'
created in M. E. Church, South, cir-
cles over the Western Oklahoma Dis-
trict by news of the resignation of
Rev. M. D. Parrish one of its best
known ministers. He has given up
the ministry permanently to engage in
business, and' will act as state agent
for a fraternal insurance company
in Arkansas. Mr. Parrish came to
Oklahoma from Alabama, and was
head of the educational commission of
the conferen e.
When a man quits the ministry it is
regarded an unusual event, and in this
case there has been much gossip rel-
ative to the cause back of Rev. Par-
rish's action. But church authorities
and members of the Oklahoma Citv
Mirations of the denomination
with which he has been affiliated are
j' scussing the case.very circumspect-
Presiding Elder W. M. Wilson when
qreried on the subject yesterday,
said:
"The only statement I feel warrant-
' in making to the public is that Rev.
Parrish has resigned his position as
educational commissoner of this de-
nomination and renounced membership
in our church."
