By spending and lending 26

four times as many wounded.

Is a Company that has fifteen acres in Wichita, County, Texas,-enough
for fifteen wells and a stockholder that buys stock in this company will have
an interest in every well that is dug. This company is organized by home
men—men whom you know. More than that the stockholders will elect
their own officers after the stock is sold. • So you can feel Sure that you will
get a square deal in this company. Millions have been made—and are being
made—in oil. Why not invest in a home company that has-land with wells
all around it—in the heart of the oil fields? Why nt invest and make
money easy?. Did you ever know one to become independent by hard labor
alone? Most of the rich have made their money in oil. The Bankers Report
show that the oil business is the third largest business in the United States
today. Get in today with us. •
