THE ORANGE COUNTY PLAIN DEALER An Independent Newspaper, Issued Every Afternoon Except Sunday R. W. BREST, Manager PAUL V. HESTER, Editor Subscription rate—In No. Orange-co: Per year, 12; six months, 11½. Entered at the Postoffice at Anaheim, Calif., as second class matter. DAILY GREETING TO OUR HEADERS My heart is like a lonely bird. That sadly sings, Breaking upon its nest unheard. With roiled wings. —Mrs. A. B. Welby. "The only real truth" about Russian seems to come in "57 varieties." Patriotism in its purity and sincerity is a state of being, not of seeming. The Pars stage reports indicate it easily in need of moral formaldehyd. Treaties between nations should be kept just as sacredly as are business contracts between honest men. Waves of moral training of children in home and school would go far toward counteracting waves of crime and vice. The pessimist sees caught but the cloud behind the rainbow. The optimist sees a potential rainbow in every cloud. Better to be poor in worldly possessions and rich in character, than to be as opulent as Crosus, but bankrupt in character. California, in some respects, it at its best in summer. Many visitors miss much in not coming here, or staying here during the summer. Human existence is sweeter with today's surger quotations than it was when the saccharine pound sold at almost fabulous figures. The greatest naval force of the United States should be maintained where there is greatest need of protection—that it, in the Pacific. There should be nothing about the observance of Memorial Day to wound the feelings of veterans or relatives of departed veterans. The Paris stage is nauseously nasty. This very extreme will bring good results, in the long run, as it should hasten a return to decency and normality. POOR IN POSSESSIONS, WAS LANE Franklin K" Lane was another great and useful man who came to the door of the tomb a poor man. His brother says that he "left no estate whatsoever." After coming out of the operation at Rochester, Minn., and reviving from the anesthetic, Mr. Lane said: "I am surprised to be alive. I hope to be able to live a long life doing good things for others, without thoughts of money." This was the keynote of Mr. Lane's career. No man who lives as he did, serving his country and his fellowmen so faithfully and so usefully, really dies poor, even though he does not leave enough worldly possessions to constitute an estate for probating. There is, thank God, a species of riches not measured in minted values. "Doing good things for others, without thought of money," is wealth of the truest kind and of the greatest inherent value. It is wealth of a kind that satisfies the soul of the one who dispenses it. He who gives himself in useful service cannot possibly impoverish himself except perhaps, in a worldly sense. And the worldly sense carried to its ultimate, is the lowest sense. To the extent that man get away from the grasping greed that considers nothing, but moneymaking from lust for riches, to that extent do they develop genuine riches in character. A poor man with character, let it be stressed, it is incomparably richer than a characterless rich man. Franklin K. Lane sought the higher type of riches—that which consisted in doing great works for his country and his fellow-men without sordid motives—and he died universally respected and esteemed, rich in the affections of multitudes of Americans.

If t he payments wi operations will as lease to remain The greatest naval force of the United States should be maintained where there is greatest need of protection—that is, in the Pacific. There should be nothing about the observance of Memorial Day to wound the feelings of veterans or relatives of departed veterans. The Paris stage is nauseously nasty. This very extreme will bring good results, in the long run, as it should hasten a return to decency and normality. The public should insist upon having clean, decent, wholesome stage and screen productions, and should refuse to patronize the questionable spoken or silent drama. The Boy Scout's organization is doing vast good among the boys of this country, stimulating patriotism and developing mainly qualities among them. It is a worthy movement that deserves the liberal support of every community. Too many foreigners come here and, in their ignorance and violent glass prejudice, undertakes to make this country over, instead of coming to let this country make them over. The alien who refuses to be made over into a loyal American should be sent back overseas whence he came. America is willing to lead the world into disarmament provided the world is willing to be led. But it would be suicidal for this country quixitically to tear down its navy and to disband its army in advance of similar action by other great powers and without any definite, bona fide pledge from them to od likewise. PUT DOORS OF CONDIERCE ON OILED HINGES The "open door" in world commerce should be maintained by all nations, Herbert C. Hoover, Secretary of Commerce, urged in a notable speech before the National Association of Manufacturers. Combinations of exporters and importers in some countries are seeking to dominate certain trades and if this tendency is not remedied it may become a menace to world peace. Mr. Hoover warns. The world is moving slowly but surely toward economic stability. Mr. Hoover says. But he feels that there should be more individualism in international economic life. He argues that it is by the individual growth of intelligence, initiative, and character through protected equality of opportunity stimulated by free competition that the masses of humanity can be lifted up economically. This system, Mr. Hoover holds, "cannot be preserved in domestic life if it must be abandoned in international life." Mr. Hoover deplores then growth of conditions abroad that may force the United States to enter on such courses in its own protection which would bring on "a day of infinite losses to real progress and liberalism." Mr. Hoover preaches a sound economical gospel for the world." His words, if heeded, would conserve world peace and hasten the return GOOD USED CARS If you are on the market for a Used Car be sure and see these: DODGE BROTHERS ROADSTER DODGE BROTHERS TOURING MAXWELL ROADSTER FORD TOURING DODGE BROTHERS ROADSTER DODGE BROTHERS TOURING MAXWELL ROADSTER FORD TOURING CHAS.

Center St., Fisher Building, Anaheim THE ORANGE COUNTY PLAIN DEALER, ANAHEIM, CALIFORNIA NEW WELL EXTENDS HUNTINGTON BEACH The proven district of the Huntington Beach oil field was enlarged today with the bringing in of a well by the Republic Petroleum company on the Kirby lease, south of the Holly Sugar Corp. plant. The well came in at 9 a.m. yesterday and by 11 a.m. was flowing under a gas pressure of 200 pounds. The volume of production and the gravity of the oil had not been determined up to noon today. The well was under control and did no damage when it came in with a roar. The well is 3685 feet deep. The new producer is the most northeasterly producing well in the field and its development offers encouragement for sinking other wells on leases adjoining. There are two acres and a half in the lease held by the Republic. The Huntington-Pantages company was expecting to bring in a producer today, but trouble developed with the loss of a baler in the hole and the final drilling has been delayed. The bore is on the Chapin-Shank lease at the corner of Thirteenth and Main-stairs and is one of the wells nearest the heart of the city. The General Petroleum company was making preparations today for spudding in a well to be drilled on a community lease on the east side of the field. The Argonaut Oil company was setting tubing today in preparation for bringing its well in. It is located on the Terry lease and it is expected it will be in the list of producers by Sunday. The Standard Oil Co. has brought in two wells in the past week, A-7 and A-8. The latter is a big producer of high gravity oil, it is said, A-7 is not a complete success as yet. It develops that the water had not been completely whit off, and this is causing some trouble. With the Republic brought in this morning the Huntington Beach field has 16 producing wells ten of which belong to the Standard Oil Co. The wells vary in production from 40 barrels to 2250 barrels a day. The latter figure is the production of the Standard Bola No. 1, the well that created a big pressure. Work has resumed on Germain No. 1-B now redrilling at 2571, T. & R. No. 2 stands cemented at 2010. The Potter Oil Co. No. 2 is now drilling at 3025 in the hard sand and is making a nice drilling record. To date no mishaps have held the drilling back. Standard Oil production on the Baldwin Hills will be increased in a few days by the advent of Baldwin No. 56 now drilling in the oil sand at 2550. A shows 2550 in sand and shale-Temple No. 14 is drilling at 2200 feet. Temple No. 12 the big well brought in a month ago is still standing around a thousand barrels a day. Iron in the hole at the St. Helen's Eggleston No. 1 is making the drilling slow work. Eggleston Noll shows 2650 feet of hole with redrilling on iron at 2676. Monterey No. 5 is drilling 3225 in sandy blue shale. Nutt No. 1 continues to produce about 150 bbls of fluid, 50 per cent of which is water. P.B.No. 1 is being prepared to back on production after having the oil string collapse at 2060 feet. P.B.No. 1 is rigged up and will be drilling in a few days. TWO MORE GUSHERS ON CHAPMAN LEASE The Union Oil Co. is coming into its own rapidly on the Chapman propman property at Richfield. During the past week the Union brought in two gushers one of them, Chapman No. 6, is the biggest producer in Sou Calif., Chapman No. 6 came in late Saturday evening and up to date this well is making 125 barrels every hour or about 3000 barrels a day. Drilled to 4265 feet this gusher started off under a pressure of 600 pounds and quickly cleaned itself of mud and water. In a few hours after the well came in it was going into the tanks, making clean oil, 26.5 gravity. Chapman No. 6 is the biggest well in the south since the famous No. 1 came in two years ago. The second big well on the Chapman lease is No. 7 completed at 4260. This is in the gusher class also as it is making 1100 barrels. No. 2 brought in last week is standing steadily at 1600 barrels per day. Three wells in ten days Increases the output of the Chapman properly 6000 barrels, and has quieted the BARDEEN DRILLS OUT CEMENT AT 2156 FT. North Patente Hills Before the end of the week cement will be drilled out at the Bardeen Oil Co.'s well at 2156. On account of the good showing this well made the drilling out of the cement plug is being watched with considerable interest. Drilling on the Pasadena-Puente's wild cat well is making good progress under the management of Dave Ball formerly with the Union Oil Co. Drilling is now at 875 with occasional showings of oil and gas. News that the China-Corona United had a 500 barrel well created a stir in local olddom early last week. Upon visiting the properly oak felled abutments could be observed. Drilling for the past ten days has been off sand, and the present depth is 2345 and is still drilling in the oil sand. As far as the 500 barrel is concerned the statement was denied to have come from any of the officers of the company and some indignation was expressed on the showing of the well. For the good of the oil industry wild statements of the press and production figures hopelessly enlarged should be the basis of prosecution. Drilling is good on the Mahalia Oil Co.'s wild cat No. 1. At 2600 feet brown shale is the predominating for mation. No work was done on the Pomona Oil Co.'s well drilled to 2860 feet. It seems that the Pomona Oil Co. is playing the waiting game, the indoor sport of the oil operator. Recent developments in the San Diego field do not make the field very promising, and seem to substantiate the statement made by a prominent geologist some time ago that oil would never be found in commercial quantity in San Diego-co. The Tecalode Dome Oil Co. drilled to 2700 feet, found nothing and is about to abandon. Tests of showings noted at 1200 feet will be made before dismantling the rig. The Standard Oil Co. has brought in two wells in the past week, A-7 and A-8. The latter is a big producer of high gravity oil, it is said. A-7 is not a complete success as yet. It develops that water had not been completely chuk off, and this is causing some trouble. With the Republic brought in this morning the Huntington Beach field has 16 producing wells, ten of belong to the Standard Oil Co. The wells vary in production from 40 barrels to 2250 barrels a day. The latter figure is the production of the Standard Bola No. 1, the well that created a big sensation when it was brought in. The Huntington Beach field is proving a sensation and it was predicted today by a Santa Ana man that it would develop into one of the greatest producing fields in the United States. Drilling Going Ahead Nicely On Arcadia 1 Montenelle Field Drilling on the Arcadia Oil Co.'s No. at Montebello is going nicely and will soon be at a point where the good showing was found in the first well drilled. Drilling is now at 4600 in the brown shale. The Columbia Oil Co. is about ready to start drilling on the Scott-A-randol No. 1, which will make the Columbia three strings of tools for this field. Adobe No. 4 now at 8106 redrilling in hard sand. Adobe No. 6 set 8 inch at 2242, and is standing cemented. The McGinley Oil Co. is making good time drilling on No. 13, 2100 feet of hole has been made. No. 12 at 2900 is testing water. The Keeler Oil Co. has fishing job on the Walters No. 2 that has worked the drilling at 2950. Walters No. 1 attains a little pipe to drill before bringing in at 3010 feet. Fishing for a lost bailer at Pan-American No., 2 has delayed progress for a couple of weeks. The rotary will be put back and an attempt made to wash over the bailer lost at 3215. The Petroleum Midway's next Montebello producer will be Prugh No. 9 now drilling in the oil sand at 2500 feet. Red Star Baldwin No. 11 is at 3150 and looking good in the hard sand. High Test GAS High Grade Eastern & Western Oils Goodrich Tires, Tubes and Accessories 5-Point Service Station Corner W. Center and West Street H. E. ABPLANALP Proprietor Oil Co.'s well drilled to 2860 feet. It seems that the Pomona Oil Co. is playing the waiting game, the indoor sport of the oil operator. Recent developments in the San Diego field do not make the field very promising, and seem to substantiate the statement made by a prominent geologist some time ago that oil would never be found in commercial quantity in San Diego-co. The Tecalode Dome Oil Co. drilled to 2700 feet, found nothing and is about to abandon. Tests of showings noted at 1200 feet will be made before dismantling the rig. The La.Costa Oil Co.'s well is standing cemented at 2700 feet. A good showing was claimed. This well will be proven when the cement is drilled out. Attempts to shut off water and make an oil well out of the Paradise Valley water well have so far met with failure... Drilled several years ago for a water well, oil came in quantity to make the oil unit for domestic use. The Mission-Ville Oil Enterprise reports 500 feet drilled in hard conglomerate. BIXBY SYNDICATE - DRILLING AT 3900 Bixby Hills District The Bixby Ranch Syndicate well is now drilling at 3900 and unless oil or some encouragement is struck in the next 100 feet the well will be abandoned. At 3600 a water sand was struck, and this formation has continued practically unbroken to the present depth and shows no oil indications. At 2150 the National Exploration Company's Olinda No. 1 is drilling in brown shale and is looking very favorable. At Chino No. 1, fishing has made little progress during the past week. Drilling on the National Security's No. 1 is now at 1900 feet in blue shale. The ten-lash is being carried. Drilling progress is good. As soon as the New York-California receives a shipment of pipe, work will be resumed and drilling continued at 500 feet. See the Faith Healer at Patryland, Wednesday and Thursday.
