Looks Like Big Oil
for Local Investors

Jerry Simpson has been here
this week from Texas. where he
is putting down two wells for the
Tomax Oil company in which he
and other Idaho Springs people
are heavily interested. The com
pany's property is in the famous
northwest extension from Burk-
burnett, and the first well is al
ready down to the oil sand.
Owing to the temporary lack Of
pipeline facilities the well will
not be brought in for the present,
but drilling will proceed on the
second well. 1t is expected that
within about sixty days the neces-
sary pipe line will be available
and both wells will be drilled in al
about the same time. Both are
expected to be gushers as they
are in the proven gusher field
where there has not been single
failure.
Mr.. Simpson will go east to at
tend to business matters and then
return directly to the big oil field
where he has been devoting his
personal attention to the success oi
the enterprise.

School Opens With
Good Organization

Pupils of Idaho Springs have
entered upon what is almost sure
to be the best year of school work
possible for a good long time.
Last years work was remarkable
considering the long enforced va
cations because of the flu. With
practically the same teaching force,
and years experience to profit
by, there is every reason to believe
that we may now we'll boast of our
schools.
The survey made last year fur
nished the faculty with a definite
aim, and gave the students feel
ing of confidence that they we're
being directed along scientific
lines. Superintendent Charles b.
Greene and Professor d. E. Clark
helped make that survey, and they
are in charge again this year, so
even better results may be expect
ed than were obtained last year.
Has it ever occurred to you that
the man who has reputation to
make gives his best services
better than the work of the special
ist he may later become? The
two men at the head of our schools
are unusually enthusiastic to be-
come Is,fect in their present
work. They are not using teach
ing as way to make a living
while aspiring to a position in
some other profession.
The high school opened with an
enrollmeut of 60, about seven
more than last year. Either the
population has increased or high
school has become popular.
Idaho Springs is to be congratu-
lated upon furnishing all but one
of the grade teachers. The board
feel satisfied that by hiring home
teachers they are securing services
equal to those of outside teachers
who would demand higher salaries
on account of the very high cost
of board and lodging. By the
elimination of two teachers in
High school, raise in salaries has
been made, and the patrons should
appreciate the fact that to keep
our last years standard of teachers,
the remaining high school faculty
have agreed to teach the subjects
formerly handled by the two
teachers who will not be back
this year.
A number of the books have been
changed, adding considerably to
the first expense of starting stu
dents, but the new books must have
been considered much superior to
the old ones, or the changes would
not have been made. And the
best is none too good. With every
feeling of assurance, idaho Springs
can now invite parents who are
dissatisfied with school work in
any part of the state to move
here this winter for school advant-
ages.
