HOyes Shows Up Good.

A report from the principal of the
public school at Hoyes, W. Webb De-
Witt. to the Office of the county board
of education. shows that the teacher
and pupils there are doing their bit, 4"
for during the month of February, the
sales of Thrift and Certificate Stamps
totaled $424.25. 1t might be mentioned
that Hoyes has one of the smallest
schools in the county, and that fact
makes. their response to the patriotic
call more pronounced. We hope to be

Oil and Gas.

The weekend Of development work
IN the Eastern fields was no more
fruitful Of results than the early part.
Fewer wells were completed during
The week and the average size was
smaller than for any week since the
Beginning of the year. The one thing
most needed at this time is the dis
coYery Of new producing territory.
Within a few weeks the search Will
begin and If a new pool is discovered
interest in field Developments will az
once revIye. In general way oper-
ators are not giving much attention
to competitions in old territory
The most. gratifying result OF the
week came on last Friday when the
Hope Natural Gas Company gave its
No 3 on the Ella Kinsey farm, located
on Dents Run, Warrington district,
Marion county, W Va. a shot. The
well responded to the shot at the rate
of go barrels an hour, and at the end
of i've hours had declined to so bar
fe1s. The Hope company has started
10 drill No on the same farm and
The Carter Oh Company has started
10 drill No I on the A n Glover farm,
adjoining the Kinsey. Both wells
