Do you remember the great excitement stirred up not so many years ago when a certain Doctor Cook brazenly announced that he had discovered the North Pole—and shortly afterwards, the renowned discoverer and explorer, Commodore Peary, returned to the United States and claimed the Northern pivot of the Earth as his own discovery, branding the goodly Doctor a taker. The excitement that the announcements caused almost rivaled the take Armistice day and the real Armistice day announcements of more recent times.
Then there was Captain Amundsen, discoverer of the South Pole. Amundsen, by the way, at this present writing, is now endeavoring to reach the North Pole by aeroplane, and the good-wishes of all Arctic adventurers are with him. We have all heard of the exploits and adventures of the gentlemen in the Polar regions, but we have only turned them over in our minds—the we have never actually seen the hardships they were forced to endure it has remained for one man to bring to this country an actual picture of life and love in the actual Arctic regions—Robert J. Flaherty, And Mr. Flaherty was considerate enough to produce in that region the vivid photoplay of the frigid zone, "Nanook of the North," which has been secured by Pathe for world's distribution and which opens for a two-day run at the California theatre tomorrow afternoon.
Robert J. Flaherty is a man who knows his ground. He was leader of five Sir William Mackenzie expeditions into North Hudson Bay regions. The scientific records of Flaherty's exploration the discovery and Belcher Islands contained in issues Review for 1918: During thir ed by these explorers intimate association true of Eskimos upper East Coast and the extreme Labrador, known Peninsula. This is the least accession on the North America its score or lies constitute a peculiarly isolated faithful to their mode of life.

JACK DOTY LEAVES FOR CO. JAIL TODAY
Jack Doty, Fullerton druggist, left this morning for a 30 days' enforced vacation at Santa Ana, where he expects to put up at the Jackson Hotel to answer for having sold liquor at his place of business. He pleaded guilty before Judge French last week and was given 10 days to straighten up his business. The attempt of his friends to have the sentence suspended proved futile, since Judge French had already laid down the gauntlet that there would be no more suspended sentence in his court in liquor cases. The Judge now goes a step further and announces that there will be no more liquor cases brot into his court but that the party will be sent to jail, in case he pleads guilty, or is found guilty. A jail sentence will accompany every find in the future on a liquor case. Mr. French stands four square for law enforcement.
R. W. Gates and family have returned from a trip to Missouri. Mr. Gates is a Western Union operator at the Santa Fe depot in Fullerton. They returned this morning.

of Explorers
Flaherty's explorations, including the discovery and charting of the Belcher Islands of Hudson Bay, is contained in issues of the Geographical Review for June and August, 1918. During the ten years covered by these explorations he lived in intimate association with the small tribe of Eskimos who inhabit the upper East Coast of Hudson Bay and the extreme Northern point of Labrador, known as the Ungava Peninsula. This region is one of the least accessible to white men on the North American Continent, and its score or so of native families constitute a tribe of Eskimas peculiarly isolated and therefore faithful to their racial traditions and mode of life.
The photoplay, "Nanook of the North," contains all the obvious authority as to fidelity in detail, or honest realism and startling thrills, going with the achievements and reputation of Robert J. Flaherty, its explorer-producer. The unique and splendid drama of it, Pathe officials declared, after their first view of it "made everybody sit up." No need of other expert testimony was felt. The coppliment of a special showing naturally was extended to the most famous of living polar explorers, the discorerer of the South Pole — Captain Roald Amundsen, who was in New York busy with preparations for his second "drift" across the North Polar sea. Captain Amundsen, as a scientist, is familiar with the special problems which the Arctic regions hold for photography. Also, he is one of the very few white men having personal knowledge of this particular tribe of Eskimos and the rigorous conditions in which they exist.

HUNTINGTON BEACH ADDS PRODUCTION
With Oil Operators
Huntington Beach added more new production to its output last week than it has for several months. A number of the operators brought in a well each, the Standard Oil Co. brot in two. Five new wells went on production aggregating a little better than 3000 barrels.
The Petroleum Midway heads the list and shares honore with the Standard with two big wells. Petroleum Midway Elliott No. 2 at 3429 came in a 1000 barrel well making 22 gravity oil. Elliott 2 proves up considerable property and makes the entire Elliott property look good for medium dept wells. On the Volimer-Meyer lease the Petroleum Midway complete a 650 barrel well at 4114. This deep well is producing 28 gravity oil.
The Reliance Oil Co. (Machris Bros) recovered Reliance No. 1 and put it on production a 565 barrel well at 3980 feet, oil 24 gravity.
Rio Bravo was presented with something nice at No. 2 redrilled to 3668. The well returned at 40 barrels and is producing a 20 gravity oil.
A real surprise was brought about by the Wellington Oil Co.'s No. 2.
LONG BEACH FIELD EXPANDS TO WEST
With Oil Operators,
The week's feature at Long Beach was the going out a mile from production on the western front and leasing heavily. The new leases are in the vicinity of the Flood Control. Bonuses of a thousand dollars per acre have been paid and the royalties are running from a sixth to a fourth. The Silverado Corporation headed by two local Long Beach men, John Boul and Edwin Herwick, started the ball rolling on the extreme west side of the field. The Silverado Corporation has leased 20 acres and plans on drilling 6 wells. Joseph Dabney has interested himself in this new section and has taken a lease on the Wildermere tract and will develop it immediately. The Wildermere tract adjoins the Petroleum Midway's Field lease and looks very promising.
The week at Long Beach saw the entrance into the field of many new companies and the starting of a considerable number of new wells. The most important concerns to enter the field were the Bonafide Oil Company with leases on the Brayton tract, the Barteaux Oil Syndicate on the corner of California and Anderson streets, the Cunningham Cal-Mex locating an offset to the Cal-Mex

The Reliance Oil Co.(Machris Bros) recovered Reliance No. 1 and put it on production a 565 barrel well at 3980 feet, oil 24 gravity.
Rio Bravo was presented with something nice at No. 2 redrilled to 3668. The well returned at 40 barrels and is producing a 20 gravity oil.
A real surprise was brought about by the Wellington Oil Co.'s No. 2. This new producer a deeper test well than has been drilled in the vicinity of the "Million Dollar Cicle" was finished at 3868 and came in a 500 barrel well. The showing of the Wellington will probably result in the revival of deep drilling in this section of the Huntington field.
Two high gravity nice producers were completed by the Standard Oil Co.on the Bolisa Chica lease.Bolsa No. 6 at 3596 came in at 475 barrels and No 7 drilled to 3800 is making 675 barrels.Both wells are making 26 gravity oil.
Richfield developments show a well completed by the Amalgamated Oil Co.on the Mann lease that is doing 100 barrels.Drilling on the Placenta-Pacific has passed the 4100 foot mark,the showing are a little encouraging.The Standard Oil Co.has stopped drilling on the deepest test well ever drilled at Richfield, Kellogg No. 2 at 5660.
The Central Oil Co announces the discontinuing of operations in the old Whittier field.The present over-production and drilling obligations at Huntington Beach and Santa Fe Springs is given as the reason.The Standard Oil Co.got a 200 barrel well at Murphy-Coyote No.89 at 4460,and shows about the capacity of wells that remain to be drilled on the Murphy lease at one time the home of the gushers of the south.
The chief interest at Santa Fe Springs centers around one of the deepest wells drilled in the southern field.The Standard Oil Co.'s Brownrigg-Kellar at 4795 is making 600 barrels of 33 gravity oilThis wonderful well the deepest producer of high gravity oil is flowing as steady as clockwork.The Standard Oil Co.No 1 at 3858 started off at 1500-2000 barrels but declined to 500 barrels soon after coming in.
The Petroleum Midway's Wickman No.1 completed at 3792 started off at the rate of 1000 barrels and looks like a coming heavy producer.
The entrance into the field of many new companies and the starting of a considerable number of new wells.The most important new concerns to enter the field were the Bonafide Oil Company with leases on the Brayton tract,the Barteaux Oil Syndicate on the corner of California and Anderson streets,the Cunningham Cal-Mex locating an offset to the Cal-Mex's Kirkpatrick,and the Pacific Corporation which has located a well between No.1 and No.2 of the Gates Syndicate.New wells were started by the Bush Oil Company,the Cal-Mont Oil Company,the Coast Estates Oil Company,the W.A.Fisher Co.,the Getty-Herwick Interests,Henderson Petroleum and the Shell Co.
The properties under lease by the Gates Syndicate will be operated by W.M.Peck,and it is understood that all properties and holdings for which Mr.Keck is acting as trustee will be merged into the Superior Oil Company beginning August 1st.
General Petroleum is making splen did progress with the redrilling and recovery of the famous Black & Drake well.Drilling is now making new hole and nis in oil sand at 2750.Every foot of hole is showing a saturated sand that augurs for a big well.The G.P.'s production is a feature of the Long Beach field in that 8000 barrels daily are being taken from three wells,Clock 1,2800 bbls.,B.S.1,2680 and Signal I,2580.
An impression had gained some headway that A.T.Jergins had not worked with the State Mining Bureau in the drilling of the City Reservoir well.The facts are that he has with the bureau and that at 2800 ft.the ten inch casing was set and no water shut off secured.Drilling to 2865 a water sand was encountered.At 2990 brown shale carrying streaks of shale was struck.Setting the % at 3000 feet,core samples were taken to 3045 where an excellent showing of saturated oil sand was struck.
The Marine Oil Corporation is credited with the biggest well of the week at Long Beach.Marine No.3 completed at 3237 is doing 1150 bbls.
Field No.1 the Petroleum Midway's startner well for the west front of the field is not a big well nor is it a failure by any means.The

well is 3354 feet deep, the 8½ was set at 3255, and the well is making about 450 barrels of 18 gravity oil cutting about 28 per cent. The water content has not increased or decreased since the well went on production.
Standard Oil Bixby No. 2 will probably be abandoned soon. This deep test well was carried to 5610 feet. The showings do not warrant further drilling. Alamitos No. 3 is also getting deep, 5350 and little oil showings. The Lomita well at 4475 concludes at 3860 this well is flowing under a pressure of 650 pounds and is making between 6 and 7 hundred barrels.
At 2860 the Fair View-Old Mission No. 1 took on the aspects of a real oil well. A showing of oil sand streaks in the brown shale caused a little stir of excitement. The Fairview Oil Co. now believes its success is assured.
The best showings tha have yet appeared for the Wucherer-Gray Interests at Newport was found at 4300 feet. Gas in the hole is now occurring in such volume and under such pressure that the bailing is done with difficulty. This is by far the best showing the Wucherer-Gray people have had and is the cause of some rejoicing.

INVENTION MAY

LONDON, July 29.—A water-lifting apparatus which seems to flout the natural law that water cannot run uphill, and by which it remendous energy of the rising tides may be harnessed for use by man, is an invention of Thomas G. Allen, graduate of Washington universitil, St. Louis, and now a British subject.
The "Hydraautomat," as the apparatus is called, is the result of two years of experiments. A working model as been viewed by scores of engineers, some of whom have been baffled by the simplicity of the cycle of operation. It has lifted water 20 feet above the river level.
