--Adv. PRIMARY AND ADVANCED SECTIONS ARE BOTH BUSY With Carroll's C.A.A. fall quotas of 20 primary and 10 secondary students filled, first collegiate program in the state to be completely under way, college authorities stated yesterday that both phases of the fall instruction are now in full swing. Six students soloed during the past in the primary instruction section, and the advanced group, working with a heavier military biplane, is expected to solo early this coming week. R.

E. Morrison, flight operator in charge of instruction of the two groups, stated yesterday that with continued good weather the two phases could be completed by Dec. 15, but that January 1 is the probable date of completion. Two new groups are scheduled for instruction in the two phases beginning February 1 or before, and another is already slated for the summer of 1941, with applications for both sessions being accepted now. Notice of a change In entrance requirements for the secondary or advanced program was received last week by college authorities, with the secondary program now open to students who will have two years college credit by the time the program is completed, permitting students with a one and one-half years credit to enroll.

Members in the advanced class, all of whom have completed the primary program and have undergone rigorous medical examinations, must agree to go on for additional military flight instruction if qualified. Class members are Robert A. James, Robert R. James, Paul Choquette, Dick McLemore, Lewis Conrad, Raynor Roberts, Chester Kahla, Harold Longmaid, all of Helena, and John Collins and Karl Mueller of Butte. The flight sessions of the advanced group are at present confined to getting used to the larger ship, a Waco UPF7, military trainer, through power stalls and simple spins.

Later instruction is to include all types of aerial acrobatics, loops, slow and snap rolls, vertical reverses, Immelmans, cuban eights, and other technical maneuvers. Ground school organization meeting for the advanced class will be held Wednesday evening, Nov. 6 at Carroll college, at which time schedules for the instruction program will be drawn up. Dr. E.

W. Neuman of Carroll college and L. W. Fahrner of the Montana school of related trades, will charge of the ground instruction, which will run three or four nights per week. Morrison and Joe Walton are instructors for the advanced program, and Benton Garlow and Archie Bray for the primary phase.

Sis students accepted for the primary phase have already made their solo flights, Joe Davis, Brad Reynolds, Jack Hartnett and Bert Cathey of Helena; Joe Niece of Beach, N. and Frank Cole of Anaconda. Others enrolled in the course are Helen Bennett, Jane Schuyler, Henry Anders, Al Brass, Richard Ronan, Glenn Violette, The Prospector A In Last Chance Gulch Bj DEL LBB80M George Schotte, Walter Rapp Buy Agency i Butte George B. Schotte and Walter Rapp, both of Helena, have Yesterday being a warm, sunny day we thought it would be fun to go picking strawberries. Such a statement, made on the second day of November in Montana should call for a general horselaugh and there's anyone who wants to go ahead and indulge In one that's his privilege.

But it won't take us more than a few minutes to produce the strawberries! All you're got to do, if yon don't believe our story, is to go up to the Pioneer cabin on South Park and ask Sir. Bill Warren if he'll let you look at his strawberry patch out in the back yard. One look and you'll be convinced that the weatherman has got things all balled up because there are the strawberries as big.as life and twice as natural and growing to beat heck. A few of the plants are now blossoming, a Jew have jnst little teeny berries on 'em and some have great big green berries--and there are a few which are starting to turn red. Mr.

Warren set out the plants last spring and says he never -had such luck with strawberries before. They kept growing and growing and bearing and bearing--and they're still at It. Right now, during these chillier nights, he's keeping them covered but that's the only protection they have. By this late stage of the season there is hardly heat enough in the sun to ripen the berries to their normal red state and they taste a little flat but they're still edible. This abnormally warm fall is, in fact, causing a lot of queer happenings in nature's world.

Now you take Carl Sparling at 115 Broadway, for Instance. He planted some pansy plants dor- ing the spring and had exceptional luck with them. He kept picking pansy blossoms all during the summer and giving them to his friends but the pansles weer always ahead of him and provided more blossoms than Air. Sparling could possibly pick and give away. Along in September he was getting pretty tired of picking pansy blossoms every morning but he figured they wouldn't last much longer.

Well, here It is Into November and those darned pansles are just as ambitious as they ever were and are still producing just as many and just as big blooms as they were in July. Things are coming to a pretty pass in horticultural lines In Last lhance gulch anyhow. Not only do we have pansles and strawberries practically on Election day but out at 511 Sixth avenue Mrs. Otto Krieg has just finished putting up the last of her fall grape harvest. Mrs.

Krieg planted grapes in her back yard a few years ago just to see what would happen and what happened as they started to grow. So Mr, Krieg rounded up some lumber and nails and built an arbor for and'this year the grape plants did their part by producing several huge bunches of big, purple fruit. Whether or not grapes have ever been raised in Helena we don't know for sure but ars under impression they haven't--but it's being done now and it you don't believe it Mrs. Krieg can remove your doubti very easily. But If grapes, strawberries and pansles aren't enough along the horticultural line we can also report that Dick Bardon's coffee plant Is coming along very nicely although it's being raised in a green house and not in the back yard.

Somebody sent Dick some coffee seeds a couple of years ago and he gave them to Lou Knox to keep in his greenhouse on the off chance that they might grow. They did and now the coffee plants stand up a foot or more in height. One of these mornings Dick says he's going down and have a cup of coffee jight off his own plants. Oh well! Somewhere we have heard, as veil, that there's a lady in town who is growing a lemon tree (or maybe it's an orange tree, we can't remember for sure) but we've nerer seen it. Well, It won't be long before yon can hare a well balanced breakfast right out of your yard--orange juice or strawberries or grape juice or coffee.

This is a great town.
