This is an appeal from the Pulaski County Circuit Court upholding the validity of Rule 39(c) of the amended rules and regulations of the Arkansas Real Estate Commission. Among the seven grounds for reversal appellants argue that the Arkansas Real Estate Commission acted beyond its statutory authority in promulgating Rule 39(c). We agree with appellants on this point and therefore find it unnecessary to discuss the other points argued on appeal.
Rule 39(c) attempted to regulate advertising by franchise real estate dealers. The rule adopted required the Arkansas broker’s name to appear equally prominent with that of the franchisor. The only fact necessary to support this opinion is that the Commission attempted to regulate advertising by real estate agents and brokers in Arkansas.
The Arkansas Real Estate Commission is an instrumentality of the legislature and was created and is controlled by the General Assembly as expressed in Ark. Stat. Ann. §71-1301 et seq. (Repl. 1979). We have carefully examined the authority granted to the Commission and are unable to find any authority which would enable them to control advertising by its members. We are not unmindful of the grant to the Commission of authority to do all things necessary and convenient for carrying the act into effect. However, one of the things the Commission was to carry into effect was not regulation of advertising by its members. The facts in this case bear a close resemblance ot those in the case of Gelly v. West, 253 Ark. 373, 486 S.W. 2d 31 (1972). In Geliy we struck down a regulation by the Commission attempting to regulate a real estate examination training school on the grounds the rule was beyond the authority granted to the Commission.
*935Reversed and remanded for the entry of a declaratory judgment consistent with this opinion.
