At a depth of ab >ut 700 feet gas in
small quantities was encountered, we
hear from reliable parties. Hut drill-
ing weut light on at the Roxana test
8U the Jolinsou quarter eigtil miles
nortnwest of Oriando.
Then Tuesday morning a report
reached this office that a pocket ot oil,
perhaps a small one had been found.
This convinces the people of ail this
section ot cou itrv mat oil and gas io
underlying the whole north end ox
Logan and the south eun m Noble
counties. In lact most people ht*ve
believed so lor years.
For some reas a which we arc una-
ble to state the machinery for the test
on the Jonn Tobin quarter hto so tar
not arnved
This wees tbd.e has been more ac-
tivity whu the oil companies in then
urt'olta to securo leases tnan for some
weeks and at good prices. And now
that the discovery iu the JRoaaua test
of both gas and oil, though in small
quantities, further activity and likely
further development may be uupeofeu.

Dear Friends and Co-workers:—
In order to answer the many* in- j
quiries, 1 take this means to! tell'
you that I am not a candidate for
re-election as county superintend-
ent of schools and to thank you
for your loyal support, coopera-
tiou, assistances and many kind-
nesses that you have always ^ivon
to me. I like to work with Lotfan
county people; I like your chil-
dren; 1 like your teachers; 1 like
the broad, progressive and sincerj
attitude of your people and shall
always look back upon these four
years of my life with pleasure
I only ask that you 6eleot your
uext superintendent with the
greatest of care; see that all your
acquaintances have an interest On'
ly in helping you secure the per-
son who will best guide your ehil
dren right and well, then give to
chat superintendent the same
nearty good will you have always
given to me and I shall have no
fear for the future of your ceil*
dren and your schools. la the
words of au unknown author, I
offer to that person the following
v
‘‘Then here’s to the man who takes
my place
When it's tune for me to go,
I'd like to give hm a cheering wor
And a warm hand clasp or so;
I’ve learned my knowledge by slice
hard work
And I’d line to pus it on
To the person who fomes to take m
place
Some day when I am gone.
YVill he see all the sad mistakes I’ve
made
j And note all ihe battles lost?
j Will he ever guess the tears they
j caused
Or the heartaches which they cost?
Will he ga«e beyond the tasks them-
selves
To my plans, some yet untried,
And ca ch a glimpse of the real jnten
To help the little child?
I dare to hope he will pause some day
As he toils as I have wrought.
And gain some strength for his heavy
tasks
From the battles I have fought;
I’ve only the unfinished task to leave.
And God knows l Have tried;
My prayer for him who lakes my
plate,
May Buccess with him abide.’1
