The early days of oil brought
prosperity to many men, but
ironically, the man who found-
ed this new’ industry, Col. Ed-
win L. Drake, was not one of
them.
Drake drilled only two wells
—the first which won him
everlasting fame, and a second
! which failed to produce more
than a trickle.
In 1860, the year after his
reports by the various commit- well came in, he was elected

Rev. Wm. Feller was the
honoree at a surprise birthday
party at his hoine in Warren-
ton Sunday evening.
More than 150 people from
Shelby, Warrenton and others,
gathered to extend their good
wishes and to spend a very
pleasant evening together in
good fellowship.
The ladies’ societies of both
the Shelby and Warrenton
Lutheran churches presented
their pastor with useful gifts.
develop brain and nerve ex-
haustion and in extreme cases
even become affected mentally,
stated Dr. Geo. W. Cox, State
Health Officer.
Of course, it is entirely pro-
per to have a normal regard
for personal well-being. To
maintain vitality and to pre-
vent-disease is a logical pursuit
for every one. But it most de-
cidedly must be kept within
bounds. When one becomes ob-
sessed with the subject, con-
cern for health ha3 overstopped
the limits.
For all practical purposes, af.
ter giving reasonable attention
to diet, personal sanitation,
sleep and exercise, and assum-
ing that one’s bodily limitations
as defined by the family phy-
sician are appreciated, the av-
erage person can dismiss the
subject of health. This, plus
the annual physical examina-
tion should adequately cover
the situation.
On the other hand, condi-
tions are bound to arise where
actual disease symptoms mani-
fest themselves. It will then be
up to the doctor to decide what
the trouble, if any, is and for
the patient to abide by his
judgment.
In short, symptom hunting
as a hobby is a dangerous mat-
ter. One should stay away from
it. It is neither safe nor healthy
to do otherwise.
Visiting in the lower Rio
Grande Valley and in Reynosa,
Mexico, last week were Mr. and
Mrs. Raymond Brokmeyer, Mrs.
Louis Warschak and son Law-
rence, and Simon Wilde, all of
Rockhouse. They visited with,. .. - .. . . r.
Mr. and Mrs. Leslie Warschak ,a^1
and daughter Janice at Mission,
and with Mr. and Mrs. James
Wilde and daughter at Lyford.
They also took charge of the
serving of refreshments
sisting of cakes,
sandwiches, coffee
water.
Near the close of the eve-
ning the combined choirs of the
two churches rendered several
hymns. Pastor Feller expressed
appreciation for all the good-
will shown him again on this
occasion.
