$1,000,000 OIL FIRE REVIVES DISCUSSION OF STORING METHODS
Br Associated Press) HOUSTON, Texas, Jan. 5. The recent $1,000,000 fire at the Golf Pipe Line company tank farm at Humble, 17 miles northeast of. Houston, In which 750,000 barrels of heavy gravity crude oil were consumed, has revived discussion of the coastal method of Btoring crude oil In earthen reservoirs, a practice followed quite generally by oil companes producing and storing Gulf Coast crude. Lightning, which caused the last great fire here, seems to show no preference in striking either earthen or 6teel tankc. Still, steel tank construction has reached a stage where, by packing excelsior loosely In the vent at the top of the tank and thereby affording egress for the gasses but preventing the lire from getting down to the oil, it Is believed a step has been taken toward preventing-oil tank fires and consequent heavy financial losses. However, this latter means is still in the experimental fage and the oil trade seems Inclined to wait for a thorough test before investing heavily in steel storage tank construction. Capacity of Reservoirs. Earthen reservoirs range all the way from 100,000 to 500,000 barrels capacity. Coastal heavy gravity oil rich In lubricating content, usually contains little gasoline, and the evaporation therefrom is almost negligible, earthen levees thrown up by scrapers and shovels nor penetrate deep into the bottom of the reservoirs. .These earthen tanks are covered with a board roof and tar paper. In the bottom of the reservoir a pipe is
inserted, connected with a gate valve off to one side of the tank. In case of fire this gate valve is opened and the pumps started to removing the oil on the bottom of the reservoir while it is burning at the top. . The one great danger is that water on the bottom will boil which throws the burning oil over the embankments. It runs rapidly and thus there is danger of com--municating the flames to adjoining tanks. The economy of construction has an appeal in the use of earthen reservoirs. One 500,000 barrel earthen reservoir can be erected for the approximate cost of one 55,000 barrel steel storage tank and will hold as much oil as nine steel 55's.

MURRETTE All Harold Lloyd comedies In the future will be of feature length. That is good news for the lover of clean and hilarious comedy offerings, and as a proof of the good news, "Dr. Jack," Lloyd's second feature comedy, can be seen at the Murrette theatre. The decision was reached after a conference between Elmer Pearson, general manager of Father Echange, Inc., Hal Roach, producer of Lloyd comedies, Harold Lloyd and other officials. When Mr. Pearson saw "Dr. Jack" in its final pre-view, he declared "There is no doubting that Harold Lloyd has found his field in the feature length comedies. The development has been logical and natural. We all thought he had gone his limit in 'Grandma's Bov,' but I must say
that in 'Dr. Jack' he has gone another step higher. There are more laughs crowded into the five reels of 'Dr. Jack than have ever been seen in
any picture."
All staff members and officers of the
Calanthe temple, Pythian Sisters, will
hold their regular meeting Friday
night at 7:20 o'clock, at the home of
Mrs. Daisy Duvall, 314 North Fourteenth street.
FLORENZ ZIEGFELD ILL NEW YORK. Jan. 5. Florenz Zieg
feld, Jr.,' theatrical producer, has been seriously ill for several days, but his
physicians yesterday expressed hope that an operation might be avoided. Decision to postpone an operation for kidney trouble was made yesterday
when his condition improved somewhat.
MU RAY James Rennie, who plavs the lead
ing male role in "The Dust Flower," the Goldwyn picture which is playing
at the Murray theatre, is the husband of Dorothy Gish. During his stay in California while the picture was being made, he was asked his opinion
as to whether a person's vocation made for happiness or unhappiness in married life. His reply was: "I don't think vocation has anything to do with the happiness of marriage. It depends on the people themselves, their personalties, temperaments and ability to give and take. There are just as many marital wrecks in the grocery business as there are in the acting business; the difference is that
the newspapers are interested in peo- j
pie in public life and give them more publicity than they do to the grocery clerks. In doing this, the newspapers are merely reflecting the attitude of their readers. I believe strongly in marriage, and I followed out my own belief in getting married.
my new Paramount picture, "Burning Sands," and "Uncle George" Melford, the director, took the whole company down to Oxnard, on the Pacific coast, where there are miles and miles of sandy area that you can't tell from the Sahara. It's the tame place where "The Sheik" was filmed. There we pitched camp and lived in the open. There were scores and scores of tents the company and technical assistants numbered nearly 200. Our routine was like that of an army regiment. Reveille was blown at 7 o'clock. Then everybody rose and peeked out of their tents to see whether or not the sun was shining. If it was sunless and gray, we could turn in for another hour's snooze. That is, you could if your neighbors weren't confirmed early risers. Noise goes through canvas as it does through an apartment house airshaft. We had a specuti big tent where we all ate breakfast, except the camels. Breakfast over, we were given an hour to make up. Milton Sills, my leading man, is very keen for exercise, and he always used half of his make-up time
working out with a medicine ball. I

from the camp a desert oasis with
palm trees brought all the. way from
Hollywood by the property department and transplanted. Luncheon was
brought to us there, as It is important not to lose any valuable sunlight during the "shooting" of scenes.
Our average day of work was from 10:30 to 3:30, but much of the action in "Burning Sands' 'takes place at night, and we frequently were on the
job from 7 in the evening until midnight or 2 or 3 in the morning.
MURRAY VAUDEVILLE For the lovers of clever harmony and light comedy the Primrose Four, "1000 pounds of harmony," are always the headllner on the local bills. While the boys have a new tenor (they were
here once or twice before) the addition
is certainly not a disappointment. Few
male quartets visiting the local stage
can qualify for the class, in which the Primrose Four move. Waiman and Barry find almost tinlooked for popularity in their offering.
Using the piano and violin, .this team
asserts itself above the level of me
dicnty and succeeds in achieving a
comfortable place in the hearts of the
1 audience. The violinist's selections
from some of Broadway's successes is perhaps the most notable feature of the performance. Another little sketch "Meet the Wife," by Frank and Ethel Halls, has a prominent place on the present bill. The situation in her sketch affords opportunity for pleasant exchange of gags and "bright retorts," which provide much meriment. Nothing quite like the Camille Trio has ever visited Richmond under the guise of aerial acrobatics. The three comedians take and give more punishment pers quare inch than one is expected to ask. Tumbling and skillful aerial work is much in evidence. Helen Chadwick in "The Dust Flower,' is the film attraction. Marvin.
