MoUing to Neg Quarters

What is known as the Kelvin
Machine Shop and Welding
Works, will appear in their ad
next week. This concern has
closed the deal for the purchase
of the old Kelvin Livery barn
from AL. Goeddertz, Jr., and im-
mediately got busy remodeling
same for their new quarters. It
was at first expected that they
would construct a new building,
but this building being the loca-
tion desired, and practically
ready for occupacy, decided that
this was the best bet. The build.
ing is located only four lots east
of the Review office. It is ex-
pected that they will be establish
ed and ready for business in
their new home by the last of
next week.

Mile Conduit From Res
crVoirs to Field

Western Petroleum Explora-
ton company now have the field
surveyed and the first of the pipe
has been laid from the reservoir
to the center of It's operations in
the field, the distance Of seven
miles. The company is laying a
two-inch pipe from reservoirs in
section 1851 w, and the line will
be completed as soon as the pipe
arrives. The line will be laid to
storage tanks in NW4 SW4 Sec
ton 1852 W. 1t will be neces-
sary to pump the water into these
tanks and feeder pipes will lead
from the storage tanks to gravity
feed to the drilling operations
throughout the northern part of
township IS, range 2 west.
The Western Pet x has three
reservoirs in section 9-35-1 w,
estimated to hold water enough
to keep four or five strings of
tools operating through the sea-
son. The company also mas
large reservoir in section 1852
W, but it is to shallow and offers
too rapid evaporation to provide
permanent storage. The two-inch
pipe line will be sufficient to de-
liver 80 gallons minute at the
tanks or about 500 barrels a day
At capacity.
The company will install be-
tween 1000 and 5000 barrels
capacity storage tanks t the
central point in central point in

our two neighboring towns are
on the boom, Kevin is not boom
ing, but is receiving a steady
growth. While one of the leading
operators was in the field recent
" ne made the remark that "a
town would be forced in Kevin,
whether the people wanted one
or not, that it was the center Of
oil, and that the oil men would
not haul their oil away because
of building up other towns"
1t is with regret that the Re-
view misrepresented this state
ment to it's readers last week,
but the information we published
was from Mr.. Wrather, personal
ly. But you know the oil game is
hard to understand Keep your
eye on Kevin for it is the center
of oil, and we will give you a tip
soon that will open your eyes.

NozC Selling Buick Cars

The Kevin Garage, under the
management of Ray Sorrell, has
secured the agency for the Buick
Car. The first cars were brought
IN the latter part Of last week,
and the automobile seekers will
do well to take look at them
before buying, for one look will
convince you that the Buick is
the car to buy. Since taking the
Agency this institution has all
ready disposed of a number of
cars. Elsewhere in this issue will
be found their ad. Look it up and
then go buy a Buick.

Great Falls where he went into

the Hursh company to run oil
through the Illinois Pipe Line to

is being constructed at Spokane.

built up good trade in the yard
since coming here and the trans

OLD KING TUT

Old King Tut was an Egyptian brave
After three thousand years they opened his
grave,
Took out his casket, money and vase
And people stared at his wrinkled face.
Things sure have changed in twenty-three
This grave robbery looks wrong to me
If you'd rob grave to lift ring.
You'd sure serve time in old sing sing
When PERSONS dead and laid away,
What right has strange people to say.
What shall be done with his flesh and bones
After he's laid in the earth alone.
If things keep on, have no doubt,
Someone will want to dig me out
And ship me back to windy Chi,
They're not content to let me lie
If king or queen or drunken sot.

If found with no gold in your hands
They'll dig you up and steal your glands.

SnnburSt Going
Strong May 5

Speaking Of the big celebration
that will be pulled off in Sun
burst May 5th, the advertising
manager has the following tt
say: as
Aeroplanes, carnival features
and a wedding on top of an OF
derrick, combined with an oppor
tunity to see the Kevin-Sunburs
oil field, are the attractions offer
ed as an inducement for peopl,
OF the state to visit Sunburst's
worlds fair, its second annua
celebration, to be held May 5th
at Sunburst.
Invitations to attend the event
have been sent out to every per.
son in Toole County personally
and in addition Mayor" w. ]
O'Haire has stated that on the
date set Sunburst will act as
host to the whole state.
The aeroplanes will be under
the supervision of Earl T. Vance,
famous aviator W h 0 recently
made the trip from Salt Lake to
Great Falls in one day, carrying
with him as a passenger L. j.
Molumby, State commander of
the American Legion, who went
to Salt Lake to sign up Jack
Dempsey for the worlds cham
pionship fight to be held in Shell
by.
To give everyone an opportun-
ity to see an oil field from the air,
Mr.. Vance has cut the price to
$500 for a trip from Sunburst
over the field. In addition to the
carrying, Mr.. Vance
stated that he would put on some
stunts for the edification of the
crowd, without passengers. A
race has been planned between
planes to the Ohio-Baker No. 3
we'll one of the big wells of the
field.
The wedding will be on top of
the Sunburst Pool derrick, and
will follow the spudding in Of the
Pool well, owned joint
ly by 500 people who purchased
lots in the pool.
In addition, the managers of
the Sunburst Addition to the city
nave signified their intention of
giving away a free lot in the
following manner: A low flying
plane will pass over the crowd,
and will drop 500 cards, one of |
which will have on it the words |
Free Lott.

Who gets the card will be issued

Oil Over Supply
In California
May Cut Price
Cheaper Gasoline Fotecdst as
Result Of Standard Puci-
fic Coast Clash

New York. Reduction Of the
prices of gasoline and crcde OF
by the Standard Oil company Of
California, as a result OF over
production, probably will result
in lower prices in other sections
of the country. Lower prices or
the Pacific coast enables Califor-
MIA oil to complete more effective
ly with eastern grades, which
competition can only be met by
lower prices.
Standard Oil officials express
the opinion there is too much oil
at present. Standard Oil and the
big independent companies have
added heavily to storage in the
last several months, doing all
they could in that respect, ap-
parently in the hopes enormous
production would decline. How
ever, production has continued
to increase and is now more than
100000 barrels day in this
country. | n addition, imports
from Mexico are running more
than 25O,000 barrels day. Total
available supply in the country
is now approximately 100000
barrels day, including imports,
whereas consumption is l, ,772,2 ,250
barrels a day, according to sta
tistics for February, the latest
available.
There are 282,OOO,OO0 barrels
Of crude oil in storage, 252,0O0,-
900 of which are in pipe line
storage and tank farms and 30,
600, 900 at refneries. This is equal
to 161 days. supply Of oil at the
rate of consumption. Stocks are
being further added to at the
rate Of few million barrels a
month.
The problem in oil is always
one of storage, inasmuch s
when once produced oil must be
stored in steel tanks to keep it.
This is expensive, and rather
than assume the cost, the in
dividual producer sells his oil for
whatever he can get for it. 1t is
always this surplus oil which
breaks the market.
The situation in gasoline is de-
pendent on crude oil. While con-
sumption Of gasoline is at the
highest point, so are production
and surplus stocks. There are
now 1000, 900 gallons of gas
oline in storage at refneries in
this country. This vast amount
Of gasoline together with current
manufacture, is expected to keep
the gasoline market in a com
Portable position throughout the
This new situation, which de-
veloped suddenly because of the
enormous output of the California
fields, now in excess Of 100000
barrels a day, is favorable de-
for the oil industry
in its ultimate working out. 1t
enables the Standard Oil com
panies and the big independent
companies which are able to buy
oil at reduced prices and are in
! position to store it, to build up
reserves OF OIL to be marketed
lnder better conditions.
1t also means a bigger volume

High School Given
instructions About
Junior Red Cross

Miss Edith NJ. Peckhan, assistant
director of the Junior Red Cross for
the New England states, gave an
extremely interesting and instructive
talk at the High school assembly
Wednesday evening Miss Peckham
came to Gardiner the first Of the
week and while here has visited and
talked to the children at the Central
street. Junior High, Plummcr street,
high school and Randolph grammar
schools.
She told OF the great work being
done by the Junior Ped Cross in the
&c countries that have an organized
chapter There are altogether over
100000 Juniors and about 100000 in
the New England states. these IN
clude boys and girls in kindergartens,
grammar schools, high schools. pre-
paratory schools, parochial schools
ana private schools. This number
represents children of all ages who
arc learning to help each other
through this organized unit, the Red
Cross.
Miss Peckhsm spoke in part of the
schools in Roumania and Albania. Up
until Albania became free country
in 1918, it was entirely under Turk
heen spoken for over 500 years, but in
1918. when their tyrafft rule was
broken. the Albania people began to
turn their attention toward the
schools and they established modern
vocational schools for boys. but they
had no Albania words for their
modern improvements in machines,
etc, so they then introduced the Eng
lish language into the schools as their
foreign language and so now the peo
pie speak both Albanian and good
English. They also established in
dustrial schools for girls and the
handwork that comes from those
children in the schools of Albania
are exquisite. and so very carefully
done that it is hard to believe that
children so young could accomplish
the results.

mania. there is school for crippled
children. This started with eleven
members who> seemed hopelessly
crippled, but DR.. Bakule, the founder
of the school. worked so patiently
