Neon-Lighted Display Cases Give Lindley Hall New Look
Lindley hall corridors have the "new look" this year. During the past month more than a dozen semi-permanent displays have been designed and prepared for the state geological survey bulletin boards by Mrs. Dorothy Jindra, a member of the survey staff.
vered with cellophane and mounted by thin aluminum edgings,
Covered with cellophane and these posters are artistic and informational. From them one can get a bird's eye view of the industry and geology and mineral resources of Kansas as well as of the activities of the geological survey. Nean-Lighted, Show Cases
Neon-Lighted Store At the foot of the first flight of stairs are four neon-lighted show cases. Two of them hold specimens of some of the state's minerals and rocks, including oil, gas, coal, lead, zinc, clay, bentonite, hematite, limestone, salt gypsum and others.
In the other two cases are ceramics industry products, such as sample clay bricks that were tested in the ceramics laboratory furnaces, and samples of building insulating materials. Short explanations accompany these specimens and samples.
Compare Mineral Wealth
Directly to the left of these show cases, production statistics comparing leading Kansas and United States minerals are displayed. By studying this pictorial chart one can learn that about 100 million of the almost two billion barrels of oil produced in 1945 came from Kansas. Also the total mineral wealth in Kansas for that year reached the 200 million dollars as compared with the two billion dollar total for the United States.
From there down either hall are displays of coal fields, oil pools, topographic mapping procedures, cross sections of oil wells, structural and geological maps, ground water studies, and information revealing
the investigating and publishing activities of the geological survey. The first floor has displays of pottery and bricks.

Carrier Pigeons Grounded?
Carlishad, N. M.—(UP)—Bill Lewis state policeman, took the roundabout way to radio from his car to Officer C. S. McCasland, in another state police vehicle several miles away. A station at Scarboro, Me., 2,500 miles away, picked up the message and relayed it when interference kept them from making direct contact.

These Kids Should Be Plenty Worried
Connellsville, Pa. — (UP) - The next time the Jacob S. Garletts decide to get married, they plan to tell their seven children about it beforehand.

The Garletts' misunderstanding resulted from plans for their 60th wedding anniversary. In planning their celebration, the Garletts decided it would be a good idea to renact their initial wedding which took place Dec. 29, 1887, in Cumberland, Md.
Since then the Garletts have been kept busy answering telephone calls and wires from indignant, and worried, children.
never before marriages
Out-of-town papers picked up the story of the marriage and dubbed it the December marriage of an 80-year-old "bachelor" and his 79-year-old "old maid" fiancee.
They even asked Alderman Gari-baldi Fenielle to get them a marriage license, but they neglected to tell their children, none of whom live here. Fenielle complied, but the marriage license recorded them as "never before married."
