"sained all day. Attended the meetings in the afternoon of the Amer. Assoc. of Petroleum Geologists. In the evening gave a lecture on Outlines of South American Geology at the Chris- tian Church at 7.30. The lantern worked so badly and the screen too short to show the words facing the slides that my lecture did not go at all so smoothly. By d***'s f*** here in Oklahoma! Then attended the smoker mostly an entertainment. Not a mixing affair. Friday March 10 1922 Attended after day the meetings of the A.G. P.S. In the evening the banquet and here I responded to the toast Founder of American Geology. The dinner was good, the crowd sat for a good time, singing college songs, and later the speaking was led by Doctor O'Hearn. The G.A.P.S. paid my traveling expenses $100 and hotel boarding charges.
