Diilling Fcr Oil Begua
The drilling of the oil well was be
gun at the sit on last Saturday and
they went for quite a depth but on
account of having the electric light
plant to put up and the boilers be
ing new there was not much done on
Monday and Tuesday of this week.
but on Wednesday work was pushed
aneau in earnest and the shaft is
sinking very rapidly and it is with
many hopes as the well sinks that
the people of this community arise
in the assurance that oil will be
struck. With the reports from the
state and other geologists everything
looks favorable for the finding of
what they are going after. The as
surance given that there is a strong
probability that oil will be found in
paying quantities is making the
price of lands in this community slip
up a little. With the lights and the
machinery well broken in it will not
be long until the machine will be go
ing forward with the drilling for 24
hours in the day.
Will Play at Tournament

and know how to play basketball we
are to expect that they will furnish
some of the good games which will
be played and we are looking for
some good reports from the girls.

of the year departed for his former
home at Fairplay, Mo., and where he

' host of friends there, returned to Ne
: hawka on last Monday evening. Mr.
j Hilton tells us that there has been
ian abundance of moisture with the
i warm weather down that way and
that the roads like here are very bad
and that the rural carriers were a

; enjoyed the visit there very much he
was quite pleased to get back to the
rustling city of Nehawka. ,
