PLAN MEET FOR
PUPILS OF GRADE
SCHOOL In SPRING
Event Which Last Year Attracted
Thousand Persons VIII BE Du-
plicated at Close of School

The Filler grade school pupils will
be contenders for county honors
again this spring in the Twin Falls
County Grade Athletic meet. An as
ISOLATION, known as the Twin Falls
County Grade Athletic association
has been organized and its constitu-
ton has been signed by the princi-
pals OF all the grade schools included
in the organization. All schools in
the county whose total enrolment
exceeds $50 pupils are prohibited
from competing in the contests.
Officers OF the association are
Supt. J. F. Johnsons Kimberly. pres
ident; Supt. r. L. Peck. Filler. sec
Rotary board OF control
consisting of the two first-named Of
ficers and Principal r. II. McAtee OF
Maroa.
Following the procedure of last
year the county has been divided into
nine districts which will hold elm
ination contests to select the pupils
who will represent the various dis
tricts at the final meet which will be
held near the close of the school
year. Filler has been selected as the
center for one of the districts and
will hold its trial meet sometime be-
fore the finals.
The place where the finals will be
held has not been definitely decided
upon, but the splendid facilities Of
fered by the fair grounds here and
its central location would seem to
favor the selection OF Filler. This
event will mean much to Filler as the
yearly meet becomes better known
and more interest shown. Last year
IL will be remembered that there
were nearly a thousand persons at
tending the finals at the local fair
grounds. One hundred and thirty
boys and girls took part in the con-
ests.
All events are open TO both groups
of boys and part of them may be en-
tered by the girls. The junior group
will consist of pupils under l 3 years
of age and the senior group will in
clude all Is years OF age and over. !
Filler as a district center was high |
est point winner in the meet The |
prospects for a similar victory this 4
spring looks encouraging but the /
work of Ray Richmond for Filler will
be hard to equal.

OIL In SOUTH DAKOTA

Many attempts have been made by
different companies to develop the
oil industry in this state. After
drilling to a depth of "a few hundred
feet, all of these companies have
ceased operation except the South Da-
kCta Development & Refining Com
pany of Fort Pierre, South Dakota,
operating at the Standing Buttes
thirty two mi,es northwest of Fort
Pierre. The officers and directors OF
this company are Pierre and Fort
Pierre business men of high standing
and rating, who cannot afford to make
any misstatements ar do anything
net legitimate, as they have been in
business for a good many years and
expect to continue.
The we'll beng drilled is situated in
northern Stanley County, about fiji
teen miles west of the Missouri River
and fifteen miles south of the Chey-
enne River, on a very promising look
ing structure, which has been passed
upon by different oil men and geolog-
lists, and without an exception, eX-
cept where they are trying to de-
| tract from this project to some other;
these men have passed favorably on
this proposition.
This well at the present time is
down 1900 feet, which is the deepest
well ever drilled in South Dakota.
! Considerable Oil and gas has been
showing from the 500 foot level. The
gas from this well has been analysed
and pronounced petroleum gas. The
| oil showing from this well has been
sufficient so that some of the best
oil men in the country are satisfied
that this we'll will come in a pro-
