daily production runs into the thousand
barrels Leasing continues 10 be ac-
tive, although but little land is being
secured near the well. The territory
in proximity to the wildcat has been
leased for some time, and the lease
holders are not subletting it TO any
extent. The ruling price around the
well is 5000 per acre, while from
one to two miles away, leasers are
paving from SIS to $50. The Twin
State Oil Co., the Oklahoma branch
of the Sun Co, through II. n. Cole,
the Oklahoma manager has purchased
1000 acres from the Crystal Oil Co.
The land is south of the second well
and is in section s, township south,
range 3 west, and an offset Will be
started shortly. The purchasing price
was not made public, but when the
high price that is being made for close
in stuff is considered it will show
that the Twin State Oil Co, parted with
a good sum of ready cash. New loca-
tions have been made during the past
ten days and six strings of tools will
be running shortly. Others will fol
low, and the prospects during the
next few months look encouraging.
So far, only two contractors have en-
tered the field, Ace Michaels and H. P.
Nichols. Each will start three strings,
The contracting price is $3.50 per
foot

the State authorities.

ALUMNI MEET.
Vermont Association of Middle
bury College Organized.

A Vermont Association of Middlebury
college alumni was organized Friday
evening, March 7, at the close of ban
quet held in the dining room at Battell
cottage, in celebration of the recent ap-
preparation.
There were present about 100 alumni
and friends of the institution, including
group of legislators and their wives
from Addison county. The hall was
beautifully decorated by the young
women of the college who favored the
guests with two or three songs during
the progress of dinner, much to the de-
light of all present.
The principal speakers were ex-Gov-
ernor Mead, Judge John E. Weeks,
Senator Frank C. Dyer Representative
John H. Donnelly, Frank C. Partridge
of Proctor, Professor J. w. Abernethy,
and ex-President Brainerd. 1t was a
time of rejoicing for all concerned, and
each speaker emphasized the great adj
vancement which had been made in the
college during President Thomas ad-
ministration, and the fair prospects foi
the future. The keynote of the whole
gathering seemed to be the enthusiasm
with which all present looked forward
to greater things for the college in the
future, and the assurance with which
they expected to see their hopes
realized. 1t was felt that Middlebury
had been put in stronger position thar
ever before by this act of the Legisla
ture, and that there was no doubt that
many more excellent things were tc
come her way in the future.
Early in the evening President Thomas
appointed a nominating committee tt
nominate the officers of the newly or
ganized association, and to report al
the close of the banquet. This com
mittee consisted of James B. Donoway
DR.. Ross of Bennington, Professor Bur
rage, and Mrs. Horton. They nomi
mated Burt L. Stafford of Rutland a!
president, George S. Wright of ST
Albans as vice. president, and Professor
FRANK w. Cady as secretary ana treas
urer, and the report of the committe,
was accepted,
1t was felt by all that this was gooC
time to make the attempt at getting
some organization of the alumni il
Vermont since the growth of the col
lege and the attempt to raise the stand
ards necessitated strong cooperation
throughout the state. President Thomas
took the opportunity of announcing
that the college had made application
for membership upon the New England
College Entrance Certificate Board
and to appeal to the alumni present fo
renewed efforts for an enlarged fresh
man class because of this step on tn,
part of the college.
