A young and energetic executive took
hold of a fine old retail business in New
York.
“What his business needs,” he told
himself, "is a place in the mind of the
public.”
And deliberately he set out to sacri-
fice the greater volume of his profits
ami invest the sacrifice into the build-
ing of goodwill.
He did. And to this old business,
advertising was the breath of life.
For six months had not passed before
the busines- had grown so that the ad-
vertising co t was a smaller percentage
than ever it had been, and, because of
a large volume, the shop effected econ-
omies and gave far superior service.
That was five years ago. Today a
certain percentage is spent, or supposed
to be spent, for advertising. But as
fast as the appropriation is spent, the
more the business increases; and the
more that the business increases, the
smaller the percentage becomes.
Is money ever ‘spent” for adver-
t ising?

Now, that an oil Held Is to be

we f»S a whola lot bettac
This company was formed for the purpose of developing for oil and gas, properties located
ii. Matagorda County, Texas. We are drilling our first well on what is known as the
Bowie Lease, at Cedar Lane, Matagorda County, and expect to drill four more wells on
large tracts of acreage in this county as fast as we can get our machinery and locations
made on our leases.
This proposition is a thorough gamble as we are making no promises to bring in
gushers. We are oil men who are willing to gamble on what we believe in and we believe
we will get the pay sands. This notice is put in this paper with only one idea in mind,
that is, if there are any here who want to take a real gamble with us we will let them come
along, so it is up to you to decide for yourself, as we are in a position to finance this com-
pany without any local assistance. The stock is one dollar a share and if you become a
stockholder you do so with the understanding that this is a wildcatting venture with men
at the head of it who know their business from every angle and who, if they win, will pay
you big, while if they lose, they lose clean. Our books will close here on July the first.
For any further particulars you are welcome at our oilice at any time. Before clos-
ing, for the benefit of the people of Matagorda County, we will say, that if we find any
oil in any veil we drill we will bring it in and will go forty five hundred feet in every
Mell we drill if necessary to give it a thorough test.
We are also in a position to accept acreage contracts from owners for di velopment
if our geologist approves of it, but will not deal with lease hounds.

is so carefully made, so
well tailored, that you'll

star who can live up to the challenge

Pauline Starke Her work in the
previous James Oliver Curwood

that she was the perfect type for this
later Curwood story.
"Flower of the North" is, more
than anything else, a love story. Wal-
thall, the lover type, is splendidly
cast opposite Miss Starke, who, as the
dower of the snow country, expresses*
all the yearning and heart-hunger
that may have been expressed gener-
ation, before by her fair ancestors in
the gilded circle of the French court.

A location which was never before
gazed upon by the eye of the motion
picture camera was found in the
North by David Smith several months
ago. It is a typical Curwood setting
and is an ideal ground for some of
