In view of this, what quality of entertainment do we give ourselves, for the most part? Not always the best. One man noted, in fact, that television, over all, is insult to American mentality. A college professor blames TV for the lack of scholastic ability in his students. He knew when TV generation had the reached college; none of his freshman English class could write a complex sentence. He claims TVs replacing reading is a partial cause, and the of TV shows is a greater cause. In parts of Europe, according simple-mindedne- to one who knows well, TV is only broadcast during the time of day American producers consider prime time. But during this time, shows of high quality are shown. Contract this with some American TV habits: A large percentage of the broadcasting day is scheduled with game shows, talk shows, and situation comedies. When a game show features audience participation, I wonder where they find such willing Talk shows, also figure largely in time listings. They are occasionally interesting, but never more interesting than an actual personal conversation about a topic of ones own choice. As for quality, a talk show depends largely on its host, and is therefore variable. Situation comedies are a third large user of TV time. Many of these fall far short of enjoyable entertainment because the plot lines are so repetitious and absurd. The richest entertainment is a look at something that is part of real life something with which a viewer can form an identity. Consider the stupidity of one plot shown recently as a comedy: a girl who has ESP helps find a bank robber in the backwoods, by using her gift. What can such a show give a viewer? Escape from his world. He would be much richer if he saw a show that would give him greater insight into his world. But until there is some change, rule: if there is a you want quality entertainment, turn off the TV and reach for a In professional experience, Mrs. Christensen was a legal secretary from 1957 to 1970.

He states: When I paint a landscape, I always feel like an intruder and have a reverence for it. I want to paint nature in its natural form. If I include a manmade object in the landscape, I try to include the feeling in the painting that the object is temporary, and that nature will always prevail.

Oil discovery apof parently can by the result of plain luck, the occult, or even superstition. In Southern Michigan, a farmer noticed that an oil company was exploring for oil in the area. He went to a fortune teller. She told his where to drill on his property, a well came in, and it turned out to be an important discovery. In Mississippi, a visiting oilman was told by a local farmer that he just knew there must be oil on his property, he could feel it surging and sloshing beneath his feet as he worked the a n part of the famed Tinsley oil field. In the industrys early days, one man claimed to be able literally to see oil deep in the ground. He would rig up a stovepipe, press one end against the ground, and proclaim whether or not there was oil beneath. He had quite a vogue, until his clients began to figure out his success quotient. Petroleum, nonetheless, is still hard to find, despite the elborate and sophisticated techniques available. Of every 60 wells drilled in search of new oil fields, only one of the average be will a commercially significant discovery. And costs of drilling continue to rise as searchers go father afield, into the remote Arctic, for example; or into offshore waters; or deep into the ground.
