How petroleum originated and how to examine the cha'aotcr of the vis-
it eventually found Its way deep down
into the bowels of the earth is a 050011-
Iatl'e problem.
Coal and 011, unlike th!ugh they ap-
pear, may be regarded almost as first
cousins, eloco there is tench that is
common in their origin and history.
Coal, of course, owes its origin to
vegetable matter once living on the
surface of the earth. It is held by
00111e ,that oil was formed from simi-
lar vegetable deposits, subjected, how-
ever, to different nullergronnt treat-
nnent. Others trace the origin of 011
to deposits of enimnl platter which,
like coal, wore deeply burled muter
layers of sediment.
Let us imagine that we are back 10
the remote past, visiting what might
have been a typical breeding ground
of o11, a vast lagoon 00 shalow sea.
We should find it teeming with minute
animal Life, the remains of which fell
to the bottom and became mixed in
slime and ooze, Isere, as in the for.
ests, it was possible for vast quanti-
ties of matter to have been accumu-
lated and buried.
You will have no difficulty In realiz-
ing the great scale on which nature
can work 1f you have ever visited the

small shells has survived. There was
no great lagoon hero similar to tho
one I have described, and here the
conditions were different; the oil.
forming material has escaped, perhaps
eaten up by other anhnal life.
We can make a guess, then, of how
oil began. A vast space of time separ-
ates us from these early beginnings,
During It, all the dead matter gradual-
ly sank lower and lower, as rivers and
floods laid layers of clay and outer
matter above It. As this raw material
sank it became subjected to greater
and greater pressure, so also did the
mud and clay and sand above it.
In process of time many of these
earthly substances became hard rocks.
Pressure, heat, and other physical and
chemical causes, gradually changed
the organic material Into o11. If the
rock above and below that oil became
hard and non -porous, the oil could not
escape,
Now let us go a step further. We
have followed this matter deep down
into the earth, where we may assume
for a time 11 lay in great sheets, con-
tained between layers of non -porous
rocks. We can now imagine great
earth movements which tended to
bend and crumple these rock layers
into crests and troughs, leaving the
oil st11 Imprisoned between the upper
and lower rocks in a kind of natural
reservoir,
You must not imagine oil as it lies
in the ground as being a great pool
of liquid. On the contrary, it is usual-
ly contained in porous rock such as
sands and Ihnestones, just as water is
contained in a sponge; and there is
malt water associated with it. 011 is
lighter than water; and if the reser-
volr became disturbed by earth move-
ments, the oil world accumulate In
the raised parts of the reservoir and
the water would collect beneath.
Another process which occurs in the
reservoir would be the generation of
gas. Our oil reservoir would then con-
tain gas at the top, oil below and
water at the bottom, the whole being
under pressure, with any amount of
gas mixed or dissolved in the oil and
water.
Before going any further, let me
make it clear to you that oilfields now
existing lin the world may possibly re-
present no very great proportion of
those which Dante Nature started to
develop millions of yea's ago. The
earth has undergone so many violent
convulsions that many promising oil-
fields have been destroyed. Their con-
tents have wandered away through
shattered '
e
d fuel cs and crevices, and have
been lost to man, There aro many
of
parts p
1 the world where traces of
destroyed oil -fields can still be seen
and where countless thousands of tons
have gone to waste, In many parts,
however, the conditions remain favor-
able, the rocks are still unbroken, and
the oil is safely stored, awaiting the
Hine when it 10111 be brought into use.
Having said this, let me return to
the reservoir conditions which I have
described, 'We have followed tate ell
now to a position deep In the ground,
where it remains to be discovered and
brought to the surface, The condi-
tions under which it is lying are not
unlike those in which soda water lies

a great rush of oil or gas seeking to
escape from the reservoir. Sometimes
the pressure would be so great as to
force the oil through the hole made by
the drill and high into the air. Such a
well is known as a `gusher,' In other
cases the pressure lo not sufficient to

ing of other methods, to bring it to
the top.
Quite a largo number ot Teologists
have devoted their lives to the prob-
lems of petroleum geology, Many of
them are at this moment wandering
about the world, seeking on the sur -
tido rocks, the nature of the fossils
contained In them, and many other
data, From that examination It has
to be decided whether 1t is remme:dile
to suppose that the underground con-
ditions have been favorable fur the
accumulation and preservation of
petroleum in largo quantlties.
The geologist has to do thin work
undo' very trying conditions, and very
often the problems 11(080nted to hint
are extremely puzzling. It is seldom,
indeed, that, with all Ills science, he
can conte to any absolute conclusion.
indeed, his conclusions must frequent-
ly be uncertain and conjectural.
In recent years the work of the
geologist has been much aided by the
application of physical science, and by
the development of delicate instru-
ments which measure the (ammeter
and density of buried. rocks. 11y these
means the geologist Is helped to de-
cide whether it is likely that struc-
tures exist below, which are favorable
for the accumulation of oil,
When a geologist has come to the
conclusion that nil conditions do exist,
hie main task is finished, The next
man to appear on the scene Is the
driller, whose job it is to bore a hole
deep down from the surface in i.he
hope of reaching a 'cap' rock and
piercing into an Olt reservoir. These
holes are only a foot or so in diameter,
They are generally lined or cased with
steel tubing in order that the hole may
not fall in or bo blocked by fragments
of the rock through which the drill
Passes. The lining also serves to ex -
0111110 water from the springs which
exist underground hi certain parts ot
the earth.
If the driller has been successful,
and one or other of his test wells
proves that ofl does exist, the rest may
bo regarded as a relatively easy mat-
ter, All that is now needed Is to de-
termine the extent of the oil field by
sinking new wells. In thls manner oil-
fields have been proved and brought
into production in many parts of the
world. Others undoubtedly exist
which have'yet to be discovered.—

Lives Wrecked by "Blues"
Depression has such a debilitating

depressions that we would do well
to recognize them as symptoms of ill-
ness which should receive early and
close lattice] attention,
Taking the Gloomy View
'When we do seek for the snppo0ea
cause of the morbid melancholy we
shall likely find that it is greatly ex-
aggerated and disproportionate to the

which are highly Improbable.
