Miss Alice Bryant, teacher of the primary grade of the Carson City schools, leaves tomorrow evening to Mexican oil as a proposition which is going to pay dividends for a great many , years. I This tendency is plainly evident de spite the fact that a settlement of juris dicial questions with the Mexican gov ernment is still pending. j It is evident from the projected con- i struction of new refineries, terminals and storage facilities; it is reflected in the new era of "welfare" work the building of club houses, residences and ' i t .1.. :. i AT THE CHURCHES !

The Transcontinental company, a subsidiary of Standard Oil, soon will begin construction of a modern club house, with tennis courts, library, dance hall and all the other requisites of a well-appointed club. Other companies have planned similar action, while the ' Corona company, a British concern, is to construct a complete community at a cost of several million dollars. The program includes a new refinery, an office building, merchandising stores and homes for the employes. Almost ail ot the companies are erecting resi dences ami several have let contracts for new office buildings. And while Tampico is enjoying a building boom, the oil production grows apace and the boys out in the fields continue "bringin' in the wells." In the past month two of the biggest pro ducers in Mexico have been drilled. Both are estimated at 100,000 barrels daily, one of the gushers spouting a stream of black, liquid wealth high in to the air above the top of the derrick. With the Mexican soil hurling its riches to the surface, the prospector spurs himself to greater efforts.
