years and the Bowdotn field now serves
the same gas lines SO do the Baker
Glendive fields and Montana Dakota
Utilities has moved its accountancy
from the office Of Clyde KeyeS at
Shelby to Baker, consolidating the ac-

EXCEPTION IS
GRANTED IN
kelvin FIELD

The granting Of one exception to
| the center-40 spacing rule In Kelvin
field brought encouragement to all op-
orators this week as CrumIey g. Sons
were given the green lights on a To-
cation in the center of the west line
of NW4 SEA 24-35-3W, on the Fry
berger farm. The well is 1880 feet north
of the south line and 1920 feet west
of the east hne-a standard location,
220 feet from the line 1t was allowed
under an exception to order M-68 of
the War Production Board. 1t is drill
ing at 10 feet.
Kelvin operators are hopeful that this
precedent means that locations other
than the center Of 40 acres, deemed
uneconomical In this lime field, can
be drilled.
Interest centered this week on the
Peterson a. Sorens0n- Govt. No. / well

Letter follows.
y. S. Knowlson. Director Of Indus
trial Operations, WPB."
The letter Is expected TO contain the
text OF the order, based on the Cut
Bank petition.
The USGS had refused TO approve
new locations on the southeast corner
pending WPB approval and no less
than a dozen wells have been held up
James W. johnson. comforting with
w. M. Peden. district engineer, called
the OPC on long distance to ask why
the application had not been granted.
In the conversation Knowlton OF the
OPC stated that both the Cut Bank
and Kelvin applications had been ap-
proved by him and submitted TO the
WPB, and he agreed to take the
matter up Immediately. Forty-eight
hours later the Cut Bank approval
came through but nothing has been
heard from the Kelvin application.
Kelvin producers submitted two pro-
poSals: one for the designation OF the
corner as the pattern loca-
ton, $50 feet from the line. and tina
other proposal was that 10 acres rather
than 40 acres be designated as the de-
velopment unit. johnson did not de-
termine In the phone conversation
whether Mr.. Knowlton referred to the
southeast corner designation or the 10
acre spacing unit.
Kelvin drilling has been at a virtual
ztandstin awaiting decision Of the
WPB, although one individual excep-
lion, for A. E. Crnmley g. Sons, came
through during the past week.

The subject of the sermon was

what shall man give in exchange

RADIANT LIVING
LIGHT PROTECTS you
ny REV. G. M. GRKFFETH
Pastor Methodist Church, cecIIton, Ma,

Fighting aircraft find safety by
hiding "in the sun" When sur
prised by the sudden appearance
of superior enemy airforce they
can find protection by flying be-
tween the enemy and the sun, thus
becoming invisible to the enemy.
There is always greater security
in light than there is in darkness,
This is why lights are left burning
at night in offices, in banks, in
stores, and about farm out-build-
ings.
Since evil turks in darkness,
then the more light we can turn
on, the safer we shall be. This is
not only true with physical light.
1t is true also with the light of
knowledge and with the light of
spiritual truth.
The attacks of diseases and epi-
denies have been lessened in pro-
portion to the increase of the light
of scientific knowledge. The evils
which attack public and private
morals are also diminished in
proportion to. the presence of
spiritual light.
Satan can not stand the light of
truth. When tempted in the Will
derness, Jesus was able to defeat
Satan by focusing upon him the
light of spiritual truth.
Whatever darkness, moral and
spiritual, which still fingers in
your mind, affords an opportunity
to Satan to attack you with dis
couragements. with temptations,
and with trials.
But you can, if you so desire,
have in and about you the same
protective light which Jesus had.
This protective light will become
yours by thoughtful reading and
acceptance of the spiritual truth
which is in the Scriptures.
Why not read Gods Word today,
and every day, until its truth not
only illuminates your mind, but so
saturates your personality as to
give you protective radiahcy?
In the radiance of Gods truth
lies safety,
