Destruction of Pompeii
For the purpose of showing how
The Associated Press overcomes all
physical obstacles and turns them
speedily into graphic news dis-
patches. the scenarist took as an
example the most difficult of news
stories—a catastrophe of spontan-
eous origin in a foreign land.
Should the destruction of Pompeii
have occurred today the newspaper
reader will see how the tale would
have been told.
Adapting itself to that day gen-
erations ago, the movement of the
story is viewed from the time it
is nothing but dots and dashes,
transmitted under seas by cable or
thrown into the air by radio, until
it is in newspaper type and form
and presented to the street tor
sale. Its various stages of trans-
formation, its handling by hun-
dreds of editors and operators, its
dispatch over thousands of miles
of leased wires, and its ultimate
’trip through the newspaper plant,
all are brought to light by the
camera.

assignment which has fallen to
Esther Ralston, who is playing a
featured role in Paramount’s "The

direction of Victor Fleming.
Heretofore, Miss Ralston has been
confined chiefly to parts containing
much comedy. In "The Blind God'

supervision of B. P. Schulberg. as-
sociate Paramount producer, she is
seen both as a happy, carefree girl

"Volumes could be written on the

Hendee declared, "but probably the
most horrible example was the
Cushing pool, where conservative
estimates place the gas loss as
high as 106.000,000 cubic feet a day.

which was either in the sand with
the gas or in a sand just below it.
In most instances the pressure and
the volume of the -as were so great
that drilling to the oil-bearing sand
was impossible until the wells were
allowed to exhaust their gas produc-
tion into the air, sufficient to permit
the resumption of drilling.
"Of course. In fields where proli-
fic gas sands occur above the oil

be to set the casing and produce the
gas. However, in many fields there
is no outlet for the gas at the time

business session today.
Other officers elected for the en-

president, N. E. Tanner of San
Angelo; secretary-treasurer, Walter
Wise of Amarillo, and chairman of
executive committee, J. H. Chisholm

With three cities, Shreveport,
Amarillo and San Angelo bidding
for the next convention, the decision
as to the convention city was re-
ferred to the executive committee
to be decided on at some future
date.
San Angelo probably is the
strongest contender but many of
the oil scouts feel that the next
convention should be held outside
the state.

ATLANTIC CITY, May 19.
Day-dreams are in reality evil
things which sap the emo-
tional strength of a child or
adult and weaken his grasp
on reality, declared experts at
the convention today of the
National Health congress.'
The teacher should study .
those pupils who are inatten-
tive and aid them In over-
coming the vitiating day-
dreaming habit. Dr. Henry C.
Schumacher, Philadelphia
psychiatrist, asserted in one
address.
"His fantasies are full of
magical solutions of all his
difficulties and are for him a
much more plea urable activ-
ity than school work," he said
of the dreaming child. "The
teacher should try to uncover
the deficiency in his environ-
ment or personality make-up,
for which the aay-dreaming
is a compensatory function.
It is her duty a:, a teacher so
to guide the child that he will
adopt reality and abandon the
fantasy where the principle of
egoistic plersure predomi-
nates.”
