FUEL OIL STORAGE
AND SERVICE PLANT

Very few Monett people realize the
magnitude of the work being done and
the money spent by the Frisco Rail
road in having large fuel oil storage
and service plant erected at this place
lust east of the round house.
There will be two 10000 gallon
tanks, one in the ground and one
elevated. They are using 1000 feet
of l0-inch pipe and 1000 feet of A.
inch steam pipe.
This plant is for the purpose of
supplying the locomotives using oil
for fuel, which is gradually taking the
place of coal.
This work is in charge of w. S.
Cameron for the National Boiler
Washing Co., of Chicago, large con-
cern that specializes in this sort of
construction.
Mr.. Cameron is an Old friend of
Robert Vogt, the plumber and wall
paper dealer at 5l4 Broadway, hav-
ing worked with him for several years
on construction work throughout the
country.

ACCIDENT AT JENKINS
OIL WELL
Drillers MiraculOusly Escape When
Mast Falls. New Standard
Outfit Necessary.

After a shutdown of several months
work at the Jenkins Well was re-
sumed last week. The casing was
found to be leaking and an attempt
was made to pull it. The attempt
ended in disaster as the extreme
weight brought down the mast and
the drillers escaped death only by ac-
cident. AS it was they were all
bruised and shaken up.
1t was found that standard drill
ing outfit would be necessary to COM
plete the Jenkins Well and therefore
all attempts at drilling further with
the present outfit will be abandoned.
The rig now on the ground will be
moved this week to the holdings OF
the Barry County Oil and Gas Co.,
near Welda, Kansas where there has
been recent production brought near
by the Company's holdings at depth
of $50 feet. 1t is the intention of the
Company to move onto its Kansas
acreage and begin early development
and make an attempt to bring in
shallow well. The money to finance
this venture has all been raised in
outside points and everything is set
for action on the Kansas holdings or
the company.
The well at Jenkins has not been
abandoned. 1t is the intention of the
officers of the Barry County Oil and
Gas Co., to bring in standard rig
and tools and complete the Jenkins
test to deep depth. Several deals
for the completion of the present test
at Jenkins, and possibly other wells,
are being worked out and it is believ-
ed that short time will see renewed
activity at Jenkins. Both drillers and
officers of the Barry County Oil and
Gas Co., are just as confident as they
have ever been that depth is the only
thing needed to bring in real well
at Jenkins. A great deal of interest
in the oil possibilities of Southwest
Missouri has been aroused by T. f.
Denman Geologlst who is at present
in New York City working out deal
for further development of the Jen-
kiDs Basin.

HAWKINS ANNOUNCES
FOR REELECTION

In this issue of the Times will be
found the announcement OF w. f.
Hankins as candidate for reelection
to the office of County Superinten-
dent of Schools.
The announcement of Mr.. Hankins
comes as result OF the demand over
the county that he accept the place of
superintendent for another term. The
demand is based upon the principle
that there is no more excuse for
changing a successful county Super
intendent than there is for changing
successful city superintendent or a
teacher.
At the county teachers association
held October 26th, 9th, and 2Sth, a
resolution was adopted unanimously
asking Mr.. Hanl:ins to become a
candidate for reelection. At two diff
ferent district meetings Of teachers
held this fall similar resolutions were
adopted.
The demand for Mr.. Hankins to be-
come candidate for reelection
comes not only for the reason that he
has been able to work narmoniously
with the teachers and school boards
of the county but also for the reason
that he is a real leader in the cause
of education in the county, building
up one of the finest school spirits to
be found in any county In the state.
And there is still another reason:
Through Mr.. Hankins careful atten-
tion to duty and his splendid cooper
alton and counsel with the school
boards, the county is receiving more
State funds to help our schools than
any other county, almost, in the en-
tire State regardless of their popu-
lation. The record shows this to be
true. Take one instance: In 1922
Barry county received from the State
for her schools S4S,937.14 while Law
renee County received S34,763.30 or
$14,273.84 more. for Barry county
than for Lawrence.
Since Hankins has been superinten-
dent he has missed only one State
Teachers Association and has attend
ed all the district association meet
ings and kept abreast of the times in
educational work and given the re-
suits of his experience and infor-
nation to the teachers and schools of
the county. His record is an enviable
one and is recognized over the state
as an exceptional ore. Shall he be
permitted to continue HIS work in be-
half of the children of the county?
This question he respectfully asks
every voter in the county to carefully
consider before election day In April
and decide according to the best IN
terests of the cause of education in
the county.
