and Installed at the well. As the well
now Mtands it i» aomi-thing o\yr two
hundred feet deep. The spuddor
standard tools will be used for the
balance of the drilling.
THIRTY-FIVE DRILLING WELLS.
There are now thirty-five drilling
well* or locations made for drilling
wildcat wells for oil or gas within a
radiua of forty miles of Bonham.
Three contracts were let this week for
derricks within four miles of Denison
and construction work on these rigs
will begin next week, according to
James Neely rig builder of Denison.
The Peter Oil and Gas Co.’s No. 2
test is being rigged up and will steam
its boiler within a few days, This lo-
cation is four miles from Denison and
one and one-half miles north and east
of the No. 1 test.
The Westover No. 2 test, west of
for shipment of 10-inch easing. Oth-
er drilling tests around Denison re-
port good progress with exception of
fuel for their boilers. Fuel oil is hard
to obtain, coal is worse and the fuel
situation is causing some little delay
to the oil prospecting here.
Activities in the pursuit of oil have
In no way abated and the promoters,
apudders, drillers, boosters and funs
are still on the job, and are going to
stay. The following is the lutest we
are “putting out" about the situa-
tion. Some of the promoters could
not be seen on account of being out
of town:

It will be able to spud in the last of
this week. J. T. Fitzgerald, one of
the trustees of the company, says hi'
will let the people know in plenty of
time when the spudding in will tukc
place, and thinks it will be the lust
of this week. We ure informed that
the Miller Corporation is making re-
parations to erect their derrick and
begin drilling soon. Their interests
are located just west of the Preston
well but in Grayson county. Another
company U making preparations to

oil men of Denison are marking time

Of Especial Interest to the Full-Formed Women
Modish Apparel
These displays should prove sources of infinite joy to women who in the past have been forced to accept indiffer-
ent styling simply b. cause they required larger sizes. Here are Coats, Suits and Frocks that will make the full pro-
portioned woman look like she likes to look—stylish and trim, t hey -simulate the slender silhouette. But only per-
sonal inspection can give you an idea of what a boon they are.
Slenderizing Coats and Suits
Fashion has set out to make the stout woman appear svelte and she has accomplished her purpose very cleverly
and satisfactorily in these up-to-the-minute Coats and Suits. They are long and graceful in line and offered in th2
choicest colorings and fabrics.
Straightline Frocks are Chic
-and especially becoming to the larger proportioned woman. Offered here is. a very gratifying variety of such
models in wool or silk, as you prefer.
