■ : J . ' ■ ■-.■■.• ••- Every newspaper records the oil boom! Everybody is buying oil shares! Everybody is buying them on the reports of geologists as to favorable indications on the surface of the leases concerned. So far, so good. But geophysicists, who combine the mining science of geology with physics, by means of their modern and highly sensitised instruments, are able to investigate the depths of the earth, virtually X-raying the layers of strata until they find the oil accumulation itself, and the shortest route to bore for it. ■; .■ ." ■■ i l -. ,-•■' ■■ , ■ ■ .'■■■.. -V- 1 ' ■ ■•' ■:.■'■." ■•':■' ' ■■■"'.■.:: ■•.
