Genger Company to Have
Charge of Sales of
Lots.

Plats for the enlarged townsite of
Kelvin comprising ONE 120 acres are
being filed and the sales agency has
been placed with Elmer Genger and
mpa of Fairfield. according to an
announcement made by officials here
Friday.
The new subdivision to the original

the present eight blocks of the town.
extending out over the bench northwest
of the place. The plans in laying out
this part of the site are for the resi-
dence lots.
Lots Are StaKed Out
Elmer Genger anG company is build
ang an office in Kelvin and an office
force will be placed in charge of the
Gales. probably to be opened in a week
Or 10 days. The survey Of the sub
division is completed and the lots
staked out. Each lot will be 35 by 40
feet in size and sold at a reasonable
figure. it is said.
Plans include grading of the streets
on the business district but the bench
where residence section is planned has
o gravel soil and a fine elevation. In
the hills. some five or six miles dis
tant, there are several springs from
which water will be piped to town.
according to present plans.
Kelvin Claims to Be Hub
Interest attaches to the sale of the
Kelvin lots since it is considered well
up on the oil structure and it is be-
lieved. with development of the field,
undoubtedly will be the site of numer-
Gus oil wells. Kelvin is now the point
from which much of the development
of the field is started, both in the
destination of shipments of new rigs
and as the starting point for geological
survey parties.
The townsite is owned by Albert

AID Club AWED
BY METHODS OF
MODERN SCHOOL
Resources Exhibit Attracts
Record Attendance at Fri
days Luncheon.

Members of the Great Falls Ad club
turned back to school days at their
luncheon meeting. Friday noon. when
a school resources program was given
by the pupils of the grade and high
schools.
The envy of many of the older men
at the luncheon was aroused during
two demonstrations of modern school
methods which were featured on the
program and many felt that the old
FAINT prodigies of the first grade of
Whittier school showed the new system
in reading.
With q record of ID books already
conquered in their first 80 weeks of
school and the chance that four more
will be defeated in the next six weeks,
the little army of 10 youngsters charg-
ed jOyously On such words as "irregu-
lar" republican" and the like and met
them more successfully than would

GRAFTON ago. Education" proved the
only stumbling block in the list of long
words, all new to the youngsters.
Sight Reading in Music
The class in reading, conducted by
the tots teacher, Mrs. Myrtle VIII
cocks, was easily the most popular tea
ture of the program. dwarfing even the
splendid exhibit of school work that
lined the walls of the Pam room of the
Rainbow hotel and which was visited
by many hundreds of fond parents dur
ing the afternoon and evening. Perhaps
even more spectacular was the demon
stration in music reading by pupils of
the second grade of the Lincoln school
directed by Miss Lena Spoor, supe-
visor of music. Sight reading in sew
eral keys was done by the children.
In both of the demonstrations. the
pupils were given new wOrk and as
wei as some Of the work they had done
in their usual classes, without n spe-
cial drill on the material used in the

demonstration.
In close line with the work Of the
first and second grade pupils, was the
exhibition of the work of the Technical
club of the high school using equip
ment made BY boys and demonstrating
the use of the Tesla coil handling a
voltage of 100000 volts.
Poster Prizes Awarded
During the luncheon. music was pro-
vided by the orchestra of the Junior
high school. directed by Miss Gertrude
Skinner. Matt Bross. a member of
the staff of the high school paper, and
winner of first place in a recent ma
tional contest of high school editorial
writer's, was introduced to the Ad club.
Perry Swanzey, chairman of the Ad
club committee which recently judged
the poster contest in the city schools.
introduced the prize winners and
awarded the prizes.
Explaining that the work in the ex-
hibit did not carry the names of the
pupils, s. ID. Largent, city superin-
tendent of schools, said that the pur-
pose was to show the type of work
rather than the best.

seeking to make the exhibit complete.
We are proud of our showing against
the standard tests of work in the
schools. the Great Falls pupils aver
aging in most cases well over the
standard"
Steady Stream of Visitors
The exhibit showed a great range of
work in the schools, through the old
three RS" with others from the man
ual training and art departments of
the schools. The paintings and poster
work formed bright spots on the walls.
To accommodate the display, the walls
were covered almost to the ceiling and
small tables were loaded with other
work.
Only a small part of the manual
training work was shown but exam
pies were present of fine furniture and
cabinetmaking. There were castings
made in lead. the boys making their
own models and sand boxes for the
work. A large board carried forge
work of chains and carpenter tools.
One of the surprises of the exhibit
were the crowds of parents who invad-
ed the Palm room during the afternoon
and evening. They came in such num-
bers that they stood three and four
deep about the walls and the closing
hour. placed previously at 9 o'clock,
was extended until 10 o'clock.
