COLORED VOTERS REGARD HOOVER AS A BIG JOKE
(Special to the Tribune)
CHICAGO, April 14—Herbert Hoover has entered the race for the republican nomination. His entrance has created what might be termed "a mild sensation" among all classes in this section of the country. The colored vote in particular has given him but small thought as a republican presidential possibility, it is said by those in a position to know the facts in the case. One of the reasons advanced for their prevailing indifference to Hoover as a candidate is that he does not possess the brave frankness of Leonard Wood and therefore, comes in for little, if any, consideration among the colored people in any section of the country.
SECRET OF BEAUTY
TOLD BY ACTRESS
SECRET OF BEAUTY
TOLD BY ACTRESS
(By Irene Bordoni)
"No woman is as charming to her husband as she is to other men!"
This is the statement of Irene Bordoni.
She was talking about charm—why French women are so charming. One reason she believed American girls are not as charming as the French is that they grow up in so much closer companionship with boys than do the French girls. Her first statement is in the nature of an analogy.
**Something Unusual**
"American girls play 'tag' with boys when they are young; they go to school with them; they work with them.
"The French girls' attitude toward men is entirely different. She sees them comparatively seldom. A man is something unusual in her life; when she meets one she exerts herself to please him—and the result is that the French girl is what you call charming."
Instead of Beauty
Another angle of the question of charm is the influence of beauty.
"Why are French women so charming?" repeats Miss Bordoni. "I am tempted to say, because they are not so beautiful as American women and must make up for it somehow."
Three things that go to make up charm, she explains, are courtesy, good breeding and tact. French girls are trained from their earliest days at school always to be courteous.
Must Be at Ease
"Charm is partly a matter of desiring to please. But don't let others see that you are trying. You must be at your ease to put others at their ease.
"Cultivate grace of movement," is Miss Bordoni's advice to American girls. "Don't walk in quick, nervous starts. Be attractive when you are spoken to; don't be afraid to smile. Be yourself, but try to be your better, brighter self. I cannot emphasize too strongly that you can be very charming without being beautiful."

GEN. LEONARD WOOD LOGICAL CANDIDATE SAYS MAJOR LYNCH
(By Associated Negro Press)
CHICAGO, Ill., April 14—"One of the gratifying aspects of this unwavering advocacy of Americanism is that it puts at rest the oft repeated statement that the race wants social privilege rather than civic rights. "This is not the case in any sense," declared Major John R. Lynch in a recent speech delivered to a large mixed audience in this city. "What we want," shouted this veteran of hand hard fought campaigns, "is a fair chance to become American citizens in fact as well as in statement. Leonard Wood represents the operation of that principle and that makes him our first candidate for president."

H. C. L. NOTHING COMPARED WITH THE HIGH COST OF WOMEN
H. C. L. NOTHING COMPARED WITH THE HIGH COST OF WOMEN
(Special to the Tribune)
New York, April 14.—The high cost of woman (one) now is as high as $460,000.
This figure which is adjusted to the high cost of living and everything, was set up today as the result of a legal decision placing the valuation of $40,000, on one feminine leg, the property of a pretty girl.
The verdict was won in state supreme court by Miss Florence D. Rooney, who suffered a permanent fracture of one nether member in an automobile accident.
The verdict is said to be a recordbreaker. Taken in conjunction with other verdicts the total valuation of woman is fixed at $460,000. Here are a few previous awards:
Hair, $20,000; nose, $15,000; eyes, $20,000; broken heart, $250,000; arms, $85,000 and legs $80,000.
The subject is dangerous, but we must say that these days of short skirts show quite a number of limbs we would hardly consider worth that amount of money from any standpoint of judgment. Heavens what is the world coming to? A fine looking healthy mechanic got in contact with a buzz-saw recently; what was left of him was dragged out carefully. He received twelve hundred dollars damages. Think of the fall in values since the days of Eden. The Lord took a little rib from Adam, made a woman out of it. In 1920 a woman gets $40,000 for one leg. In 1920 a man is mashed all to pieces and gets $1200! At that rate a woman's toe nail is worth almost as much as a man's body. We don't believe it. That jury was woman mad.
R. C. SIMMONS ENTERS THE INSRANUCE GAME
(By Associated Negro Press)
LOUISVILLE, Ky., April 14—With a capital stock of $100,000 divided into $10 shares, the Domestic Life and Accident Insurance company filed articles of incorporation this week and applied to the insurance commission of Kentucky for a charter. The corporation is composed of Negroes Incorporators are Roscoe Simmons William Warley, G. P. Hughes.
WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE?
Three men sat in the smoker of a railway car.
One said: "I'm a republican."
Another said: "I'm a democrat."
Then both looked at the third. He puffed at his cigar a bit and then said:
"Gentlemen, just what is a republican these days? And what is a democrat? And what is the difference between them?
"What one principle of politics or economics is there today that is distinctly republican and what one distinctly democratic? And, by the way, what do democrats stand for and what do republicans stand for? Tell me that.
"I know of republicans in Washington who are more democratic than some democrats, and I know of democrats who are stronger standpatters than some republicans.
"I'm just a voter. It doesn't matter much to me which set of men hold the office. But I do care about principles.
"What can you tell me about your party principles, Mr. Democrat? And what can you tell me about yours, Mr. Republican? Just what do your parties stand for? Are republican' and 'democrat' more than labels?"
At this point the train reached the station where the republican and the democrat had to get off.
The puzzled voter was left alone, his problems unanswered—Ex.

PORTSMOUTH, Va., April 14—The Rev. Edward H. Hunter, D. D., pastor of the Emmanuel A. M. E. church of this city, will be presented by Virginia for the bishopric in the African Methodist Episcopal church, at the general convention which will be held in St. Louis during May.
On the principle that one good turn deserves another, this "do a good turn" period may become perpetual.
PAINT AND POWDER MAKE GIRLS LOOK LIKE WHAT THEY AREN'T
(Special to the Tribune).
Fairmont, W. V., April 15.—An antiphant and powder order issued to waitresses at a Fairmont hotel today caused so much indignation among the girls that they went on strike.
Miss Betty Johnson, the head waitress, leader of the walkout, remarked caustically: "If we entered the dining rooms looking other than neat and well groomed, we would lose our jobs. When we tried to make ourselves attractive and good to look at, the management ordered us to stop using paint and powder, even though our attractiveness drew business. So we have quit and we won't return until they rescind the order."
AN APPEAL FOR HELP
FROM ARKANSAS
On March 22, 1920, the same day that the attorney general of Arkansas was making a desperate fight before Governor Allen of Kansas to honor requisition papers for the return of Robert L. Hill to Arkansas, Colonel Geo. W. Murphy and Seipio A. Jones were pleading the cause of twelve men before the Arkansas supreme court, who were convicted and sentenced to die in connection with the Elaine riot.
Long before court convened, every seat was filled and hundreds stood in the corridors. Colonel Murphy is now well on in his "seventys." He is an ex-Confederate soldier, ex-attorney general of Arkansas, and for years has enjoyed the reputation of being the southwest's greatest criminal law-year. He delivered the argument before the court.
Attorneys pronounce his argument of March 22nd, the most brilliant of his professional career. He did not mince words in portraying the conditions surrounding the speedy trial and conviction of the twelve men by the Phillips county court. He pointed out error after error and in summing up, declared that the men had not had any trial.
One week from the day of his argument, the supreme court remanded six of the cases for a new trial and affirmed the decision of the lower court in the cases of the other six.
The ends sought are coming into view. In reopening the six cases, much can be developed to throw light on the causes and conditions leading up to the tragedy at Elaine.
The other six will not be left to die. The Citizens Defense Fund Commission is now making preparations to have Colonel Murphy and S. A. Jones carry these cases to the federal courts. Every step under the law will be taken to safeguard the lives of these men until they have had a fair hearing.
It is requiring a large sum of money to conduct this fight and the Citizens Defense Fund Commission is calling upon all citizens who believe in justice and fair play to help but in this cause.
Send all contributions to J. H. McConico, secretary, Box 112, Little Rock, Arkansas.
There are some in this country who must consider themselves in luck that their names are not on the allied list of those wanted.

WOOD BELIEVES IN THE SQUARE DEAL FOR ALL MEN
(Special to The Tribune)
COLUMBUS, O., April 14—General Leonard Wood is one of the type of Americans in whom the love of justice and fair play is deeply implanted. He is not a noseur clamoring for the limelight, but a plainfi unadulterated American citizen and believes in, and insists on every man whatever his race or color, having a square deal, not because he is a white man, or black man, but a man.
(By Archie Lewis)
Rev. Clark, presiding elder of the California Conference of the A. M. E. Zion church, accompanied by Rev. W. J. Conquest of Phoenix, visited Ray last week and conducted the installation of officers for the local A. M. E. Zion church.
While returning from Phoenix one day last week, Mr. Wm. Crump and two children had an auto accident on Boyd Heights. Some little device came off one of the wheels of the car and the brakes refused to work. As they were going down-hill, the car gained momentum and went down at terrific speed. To save himself and children from serious injury, Mr. Crump turned the car into a fence on the road side. As the front wheels struck the fence, one of the tires blew out and the car turned turtle, precipitating the occupants to the ground. They escaped with a few bruises and cuts, none of them serious.
Rufus Williams of Columbus, N. M., is scheduled to box young Herrera of Bisbee here on April 23. Rufus is the boy who made an enviable reputation as a fighter in the capital city.
Rev. W. J. Conquest and wife were in camp last Sunday. Dr. Conquest has done a great work in Sunny Side the short time he has been coming to Ray. He has succeeded in raising over $250 in the rally which is now going on. Mr. Boyd, general manager of the Ray Con., donated $100, and many others of the Caucasian race have given liberally of their means. We are proud to say that we now own our church in Ray. Mr. and Mrs. Mose Davis left last week for Phoenix, where Mrs. Davis will consult Dr. W. C. Hackett. Mrs. Davis has been in poor health for some time.
Mexicans object strongly to visits from United States aviators. The Mexican idea of traffic across the border is strictly a one-way affair.
A scientist says he has found the flu germ. Again has that old saying been borne out: "The man who is looking for trouble generally finds it."
The high cost of living is going up rapidly in Mexico, the life of an American held for ransom having jumped to $20,000 from a recent quotation of $15,000.

The Chicago Tribune, in an effort to conserve news print, suggests to its readers that they borrow a Tribune from their neighbor instead of buying one. This might work all right for the Chicago Tribune, but it is not necessary for many papers to offer any such suggestion. The style already is in vogue among the majority of newspaper readers. Some months ago we began campaign for subscriptions in order to reach the 7,000 mark. At one place our solicitor found five families who made one copy of the Tribune serve them. At scores of places he found two and three families making use of one copy of the Tribune; and, mind you, there were from three to seven people in each family, imagine, if you will, what this means to a publisher. We found next to impossible to reach the 7,000 mark with this situation confronting us, and started out to try and induce each family to order their own paper and be independent of the other. In some cases it worked, but in many others the lady would say: "I take the Saturday Evening Post, and Mrs. B. takes the Phoenix Tribune, so we exchange." We finally decided that a Colored population of 15,000 would be necessary in order to secure 7,000 aid subscribers. We doff out hat to the Chicago Tribune, but shall not suggest anything of the kind to our readers. No paper hortage threatens us. We could produce a fifty-six page edition every week, if our business warranted it and the cash was forthcoming.
The amount of good or evil accomplished by the press is incalculable. There may be a half-dozen ministers on the globe who preach regularly to four or five thousand people; but there are comparatively few papers which do not reach this number, allowing an average of five persons in each home to which theaper goes; while in numerous cases the congregation of anditor amounts to hundreds of thousands of persons.
The minister speaks, perhaps, to two or three out of a family; the aged and infirm, as a rule, having no part in his minstrations. The words of the editor go directly to the home, and each every member of the family who reads. The minister's words are spoken hastily, and may fail to express adequately his nought; the words of an editor are likely to be more carefully considered, and his thoughts more accurately expressed. A minister's words may be forgotten, and he himself may be unable to call them; but the words of the editor are written down, and may be considered and re-read until they are firmly fixed in the mind. How important that the words spoken be right words even the words of wisdom and truth!
How little we know of the sermons which the apostles reached; but the epistles which they wrote have come down to us as an unfailing treasury of truth. In view of such facts, should not Christian men and women engage in earnest supplication for those on whom is laid the responsible charge of conducting the public press? Surely no Christian should hear with inference the request of an editor when he says, "Brethren, pray or us."—Boston Christian.

THE PHOENIX TRIBUNE-ALWAYS IMPROVING
The woman knew how to act. She hesitated, smiled up at him demurely; then, breathing to herself the name of the man she loved, she rose, and, with her eyes closed tightly, held up her lips to the man she despised.
Some while later Nikolay took his departure.
CHAPTER.V.
It was ten days, since the reward for Fitzhugh's capture had been offered, and though detectives, city, amateur, and private, as well as the police, had kept hot an unremitting search, not a trace of the fugitive could they find. "Clues," they had by scores, but they led nowhere. This tenth day fell on a Thursday in April—a dark, cold day of incessant rain. Nikolay invariably called upon Esther every Friday, but on this particular Thursday night, happening to be in her neighborhood, he decided to take advantage of the opportunity, and drop in on her for a pot of hot tea and a word of good cheer.
He was about to pass under the wooden staircase, and so to her door, when suddenly, just opposite the window he stopped still and stood as though hewed from stone.
What he saw was this: In the center of the room, her back toward him, stood Esther; arms held out, her head back, she had the unmistakable posture of a woman waiting only for the One Man. The next instant a very tall man, young-looking despite the short, untrimmed beard on his lean face, stepped from some point outside Nikolay's range of vision, and took her in his arms and kissed her.
His pummy face inva with fury, yellow hair seeming to stand on end, Nikolay burst into the room.
Fitzhugh sprang from his place and vaulted the table, bringing it between himself and the door. "Get out, Esther," he ordered quietly, rolling up his shirt sleeves. "I'm going to slaughter this beast."
She made no move to go, however, but drew to one side, and with hands pressed to her cheeks, watched the two gladiators with mingled horror and fascination. Nikolay had the advantage of some forty pounds in weight, but Fitzhugh was vastly his superior in stamina, fistic skill and quickness of eye and movement. To win the fight he judged he had to do but one thing: to keep free of the other's clutches. Once the big Russian got those tremendous arms around him the combat would be unequal. Nikolay rushed upon his foe like an infuriated bull, and Fitzhugh ducked
A man is being held down by a man.
Rushed Like an Infuriated Bull,
and sidestepped like a lean panther,
springing in quickly to deliver two blows in rapid succession, the last of which brought blood. In the next rush,
however, a sledge hammer seemed to swing upon the point of his chin, and he spun dizzily backward, unable to regain his balance, and fell heavily against a fender. But Nikolay was not quick enough to follow up his advantage, and when next he charged, Fitzhugh had recovered, and was dancing around him as before, his lip drawn back from his glancing teeth in a tauting smile.
The blood was streaming from a dozen cuts on the Russian's face, its crimson blots in his eyes; and ever that smiling, white-and-black face swam before him like a pirouetting phantom.
Knowing his endurance to be his strongest, and the other's weakest, point, Fitzhugh desired chiefly to wear his opponent down until such time as he could rush in and finish him.
Nikolay was fast becoming exhausted. Ten minutes of this mad pace was more than he could stand. His breath came shorter and shorter. At last he stopped and allowed his arms to dangle limply at his sides.
For a little while, coughing and spitting blood and catching his breath in wheeze gasps, he stared drunkenly. Then, seizing a heavy water pitcher from beside an overturned chair, he hurled it, with a vile word. Fitzhugh dodged the missile and leapt for his foe. He put every atom of his vigorous young strength into the blow he handed under Nikolay's jaw, and the man went down like a clubbed ox.
The conqueror walked to a corner, picked up his coat, and slung it over his shoulder. He came back to Esther, crouching against the wall like one awakening from some horrible dream. He smiled, but in the neutral light the smile was chastly.

A Campuscious Repeat
Monday evening, April 12. Mr. and Mrs. Ramon Mazon, proprietors of De Luxe Cafe and Refreshment Farlor, 37 South Second street, entertained a number of their patrons with a New England boiled dinner. This dinner was given in order to celebrate the close of the heavy diet season and to usher in the light lunch and ice cream season which is now on in full blast
at this popular resort. Seated at the dinner table were, Chas. G. Johnson, known as the "Oil Magnate"; J. H. McReynolds, called "J. P. Morgan the second"; Harris Kaswell, known as "Sugar Foot"; W. H. McCree, styled "The Old Reliable"; George Finley, known as the "Rapid Transit Man"; F. C. Cleveland, known as "John Wanamaker's double"; George Mazon, several other guests and the Tribune reporter, who was told to put plenty of "pep" in the article when he prepared it for the paper. The "Oil Magnate" acted as toastmaster and
after thanking the hosts for their hospitality, kept the guests laughing with his ready wit and humor. A three course repast was served and greatly enjoyed by all. The Mazons have unwittingly secured a strangle hold on this group of customers and will have to double their order for frozen dainties. Live long the De Luxe Cafe and may nothing but happiness and prosperity come to its owners. Mrs. Howard to California Mrs. O. G. Howard, who arrived a few days ago from Los Angeles, Cal., and with her husband had occupied their home at 726 West Grant street, decided that she liked California better than Arizona and on Friday night,
April 9th, returned to the Golden State. Mr. Howard still occupies the home at the above address and is employed at the Arizona club.

What Do You Think of That?
Bell Well Throws Oil Over Derrick----Flows 30 Barrels in an Hour—Abner Davis Plunged Just in Time
In the now famous Pecos Valley oil fields for his syndicate backers. The Consolidated Syndicate now destined to become one of the big oil concerns of the country—due to judgment and nerve of organizer.
Two weeks ago I said I was just one jump ahead of big oil well in Pecos. One week ago I told you to plunge with me, that I was right.
Today I tell you to go your limit, for proof comes that my plunge was right and that proof is only one jump behind my big Pecos scoup.
Here is the one thing you can note down now: Even after the Bell well is proven the best shallow producer ever drilled in America and my leases are perhaps increased in values millions of dollars, I do not withdraw my offer from the market, boost the price and then go back and rob my friends and the public. I started out to do certain things because I believed in what I was doing. I started out to make money for those who would help me, and now that all chance seems to be removed, I am still giving them that very same big opportunity, and the fact that my judgment is being backed up so soon is all the more gratifying to me, because it means that Consolidated Syndicate members will rejoice with me.
"What do you think of that?" These are the world of the girl at the Telegraph Office who read me the following telegram:
Ira J. Bell says three strokes of the pump this afternoon sent the oil over the derrick, flowing later at the rate of thirty barrels an hour. Both tanks filled before well was shut off.
P. S.—The man who knows what he is looking for and after years of search finds it and then don't act does not deserve any reward. Geology has been proven with a real oil well. I got in in early and in a big way. If this does not constitute a fortune making chance then I don't know what one would want from which to grow rich.
Out of the first one hundred oil men passing by, I can point out ninety-nine who have made the big killings in Texas look like ordinary ranchers, drillers, cow punchers, laborers and truck drivers, with an occasional white collar boy among them. Half of these men are uneducated and lack a whole lot of being the kind of millionaires you read about in the society pages. But these oil millions are to be bad by the man with nerve to rush in when the opportunity is offered. These fools are the fellows who get the acreage in time, play the game all over the field, start in when the wells start or even ahead of drilling, and then sell a part of their holdings to the wise, cinch-playing, wise oil kings for a big profit and then play the game out for production to put them in the millionaire and income tax-dodging class. It don't take Wall street experts or financiers of any other class to make money in oil.
Playing the oil game is like playing baseball. If it's a long fly ball and a high wind, the player must go after it from the crack of the bat; he must keep on going; Judgment and nerve (guts) is needed to catch the hard fly ball, and nerve and judgment is the real capital needed in oil. It takes the man with nerve—judgment—vision and one willing to pioneer, hit the trail day or night with the first report that a new strike is in sight.
It's the man that is willing to take a chance that has the only chance to win big. A few dollars placed right, at the right time, will make you more money in oil than in a lifetime of saving and toil.
DECIDED PROMPTLY
When I first saw the famous Bell well in the Pecos field, with its light green oil bubbling and sputtering out through the casing joints, running out where gummy sacks had been crammed in to shut it off. I did not wait to see the oil gush over the derrick or for it to be put on the pump. If I had been there to buy the Bell well, that is what I would have waited for; but I know Bell would not sell this well and I knew I did not even have money enough to put up a respectable forfeit even if he would have sold. I knew that very day that the time for me to act was then and I acted before the sun went down, and I kept busy until long after midnight getting options, buying property and laying my lines to control every acre possible.
When I went back to see the Bell well brought in, I went prepared to make a picture of the gusher I felt sure was to be opened up. When the
"What do you think of of the girl at the Telegraph lowing telegram:
ABNER DAVIS
Forth Worth.
Ira J. Bell says three st noon sent the oil over the rate of thirty barrels an hour well was shut off.
[Signed]
[Signed]
It was not until after the telegram was delivered by messenger that I discovered the words, "Now, what do you think of that," were the delighted, surprised exclamation of the telegraph girl, so I imagine that this is about the way the hundreds of wise fellows who stood off and said I will wait for the pump to tell the truth about the Bell well, feel' now. Now that the pump has spoken, Ira Bell has been vindicated, Pecos geology proven and even Abner Davis' hasty judgment backed up, the real big doing, are on in the trans-Pecos oil country.
When the telegram was delivered it failed to contain the surprise sentence, "Now, what do you think of that?" The fact that this girl was sufficiently posted as to unconsciously express such amazement gave me the theme for writing this ad. The fact that so many people will be brought suddenly to a realization of what it means to find a real live, snorting, gushing, flowing oil well in the trans-Pecos Abner
P. S.—The man who knows what reward. Geology has been proving chance then I don't kno
oil spouted high and the crowd shouted with joy, I was silent—it did no more than I expected, but I was perhaps somewhat happy that I had then in my pocket the cream I went to get, and I got it at prices prevailing before the doubters had been shown. My guess is that every barrel of oil the Bell well flowed on that auspicious occasion enhanced the values I had just acquired many thousands of dollars.
It was the nerve to plunge at the right moment that put me in position to win big stakes later when proof comes that my judgment was right. So, when I wrote my famous "Plunge-With-Me" advertisement, which appeared in every big newspaper from Boston to San Francisco, and from Tampa, Florida, to Winnipeg, the response was the greatest that has ever greeted any of my offers. Hundreds of telegrams have flooded my office for the past seven days, and a stream of hundreds of thousands and tens of thousands and then more and more tens of thousands have come by wire, special delivery and thousands more by every mail.
RESULTS OF ONE WEEK
The tremendous success of my world-wide campaign of direct to the people, money raising through the newspapers has placed at my disposal a sum of money requiring six figures to express.
This remarkable result enabled me to hold the acreage I want at Pecos—to immediately build our refinery at Pecos—to acquire other thousands of acres of leases in Texas. The dream of years is now being realized. I have ten thousand loyal financial supporters behind me who are ready to finance me in any good undertaking. This makes success certain and it makes that success big and quick, because I am equipped financially to do the big things at the time when the really big things are waiting for me.
FIRST GLIMPSE SUFFICIENT
I have spent thousands of dollars on geology. I have spent thousands more looking for anticlines. When I walked down the old irrigation ditch which circled around the sand hill in the Pecos valley basin and saw where the top had been scraped off both sides of a perfect anticline, and then saw an oil well spot its stream of liquid gold that was drilled on this structure. I did not wait for any more geology or to see how much oil this first well would make. This was all the proof I wanted, and I am just as sure that a great deep gusher sand will be struck as was Bell when he started to prove his geological theory by actually drilling this well.

valley in the midst of a stretch of a thousand miles where not a commercial well has ever been found before, means possible millions to me and my syndicate associates, who are following my lead by getting in on the ground floor with me on this new oil El Dorado of fortune-making—the future Tampico oil fields of Texas. Thousands of others everywhere in Texas and throughout the nation will be equally as well pleased as was the little lady at the phone in the telegraph office. Just such tips as this have been known to lead to fortunes before, and just such hunches as this have guided many men of affairs to the master strokes of their lives. While this telegram did not surprise me—it was no more than I expected—but it does, nevertheless, increase the holding I have in value several fortunes beyond which they might have been valued yesterday. $100 wired me today secures full $1,000 membership sharing in the

whole consolidated syndicate leases, wells, refinery and all development with a pro rata share of profits and you also get a five-acre lease as a bonus, made to you outright. If you can't wire the money, then wire me you are sending it and I will protect you just the same. All I want to know is how much I can depend on so I will know how much to agree to pay. The Abner Davis refinery to be built at Irabell is on the cars en route. The first Abner Davis drilling outfit has arrived, the crew on the ground and the well starts at once. The second and third Abner Davis drilling rigs are on the way to Pecos field. The Abner Davis refinery at Wichita Falls has shipped fuel oil for drilling to the Pecos valley. The Abner Davis refinery at Fort Worth is supplying gasoline and distillate for pushing the Pecos development. And this week will see thousands of dollars in cash paid out by Abner Davis to close big deals that have been pending.
I am playing the big game for big stakes for the Consolidated Syndicate. I am playing it on a shoe-string, so to speak, because the little money I put out to hold this property was not a drop in the bucket compared to the millions in potential values I am safely acquiring. This is an Abner Davis trusteeship. This is the Consolidated Syndicate deal. It is another Abner Davis, man to man, profit-sharing plan. Your money comes in to pay out and develop the great properties the first little money was risked on to tie up. You benefit by my risk in the big results. Your money comes in to develop the values and earn the dividends and you share all the way through and on the ground floor, and that is the reason why I can do with a thousand dollars as much as the clnch player can do with a million. The name and fame of Abner Davis has spread wherever newspapers are read, and that is why thousands of good red-blooded people wire me their money to use—they know action counts, and that I play the game on the square. The better the deal and the bigger the profits, the quicker I offer it to my friends.
You can pay $20 cash and $20 monthly until you pay $100, or you can pay the whole $100 cash and receive your full membership.
5 ACRES FREE
The bonus of 5 acres on each $100 paid in can only be given you on the money paid in during the first 90 days, because it will be impossible for me to secure the acreage with which to make good this bonus later than 30 days from now, for the simple reason that during the first thirty days I must know what money will be available during the ninety days to secure my acreage options. Prices are advancing so rapidly that it will be out of the question to get an acre anywhere near drilling operations even at $20 cash per acre.
To the Losers In Oil
I know you and I know how you feel—yes, I know you are sore, but you may just blame yourself for using bad judgment. I am giving you the one real opportunity to get even. The loser always wants to get even, and I would like to be the means of pulling all you losers out of the hole. Come on while you can; one more final chance may pull you out and lay the foundation for a competency in old age and take care of your needs when the rainy day comes. You can't win in the oil game by staying out simply because some crook swindled you in worthless stocks, or because some honest incompetent did not have the nerve or ability to stick and make good. This is the $1,000-to-$1 copor-

tunity to win—take it now or regret later. Remember, you can get in now while this syndicate is forming just as cheap as before the Bell well upset the dope of the skeptics and quitters. My friends continue to back me because I have always given them the best there is. You play with me man to man on the ground floor or not at all.
30-DAY OPTION
The only reason I can agree to give you an acre lease as a bonus with each $20 cash you pay in is because I tied up this acreage early when it was to be had cheap. The money I can raise in the first 30 days will enable me to exercise the options and contracts to purchase the acreage necessary to make good the bonuses, but I cannot agree to furnish the acreage on membership reservations that are sent in later than during this 30 days.
RESERVATION
Listen: Here is the thing for you to do—
You can reserve your membership now.
You can make a payment on same, $20 or $100, then I will know how many members will be in the Consolidated Syndicate and I can take advantage of my options and definitely secure the acreage to cover the bonus of one acre for each $20 you are to pay in cash.
This will give you the full membership-give you the full pro rata interest in all the Consolidated Syndicate holdings and profits and in addition thereto give you the five-acre bonus on each hundred dollars you agree to pay in cash whether you pay all cash or take the easy terms.
I will not agree to furnish the bonus leases on memberships reserved after 30 days.
PRIVILEGES GIVEN YOU
If you reserve the Consolidated Syndicate membership and pay $100 cash you get a five-acre lease as a bonus.
The same rule applies whether $200 cash or any other amount, you get the acre bonus with each $20.
IMPORTANT
It is also important for you to know and fully understand that you are absolutely and entirely trusting to my judgment and my honesty in this matter.
You are furnishing the money to pay for everything I buy as well as all the expenses in connection with this syndicate and the properties that we acquire and the developments that we may carry forward.
You are also to allow me to share to the extent of 25 per cent in this syndicate in compensation for my services and time in organizing same.
I am giving you the benefit of my experience and the very best that is in me to make a wonderful success.
I shall be fair, open and truthful with you and give you all your money can possibly be expected to buy.
I am going to conduct the business honestly to the best of my ability and I am going to keep you posted as to developments and the things I am doing.
NOTICE
The Consolidated Syndicate is a separate and definite syndicate that will be composed of those who become its members and the amount of money it will have to operate which depends upon the number of members who join. The amount of the property we will acquire also depends upon the amount of money that is furnished, and this is the thing I am asking you to tell me now—
HOW MUCH MONEY WILL YOU FURNISH?
All money will go into making the Consolidated Syndicate the greatest of all my undertakings along these lines and every member will share in every dollar of the results according to the amount furnished.
It is my purpose to make this my last new offering and I am sure it will be big enough to enable me to do all the things I have set out to accomplish, and I am sure it will be the big producer of results that we have all been waiting to grasp.
Join with me now or never if you want to get in on the ground floor at the very beginning of a great development campaign in the future great oil field of Texas.
ON THE GROUND FLOOR
If you are going into the oil business you must depend on someone. When you join hands and dollars with me you have but one to depend upon. I have no loopholes and will never try to shift responsibility. You can take me at my word, play the game with me as oil men play it on honor and on the ground floor.
BONUS OF 5 ACRES WITH EACH
$100
This Consolidated Syndicate deal will give you 5 acres of oil, gas and mineral rights for each hundred dollars you invest. This lease will be made in your name, properly assigned so you can place the same on record and handle it in the future just as you would any other property. The only expense to you hereafter will be $1.00 per acre per year for the life of the lease, until oil is produced, then, of course, there will be no further rental to pay.
The success of this mammoth Consolidated Syndicate is assured. It will go over and no doubt be largely over-subscribed, just as was the Inside Syndicate. If your money cannot be used it will be promptly returned. Wire me the amount to put you down for—send the money by wire, draft or money order.

An Open Letter to
Phoenix Women
Dear Mrs, Housewife:
Certainly these days you plan to
practice thrift in running your house-
hold. You will be interested in my
plan for providing plenty of clean
clothes. Here's the way of solving
the clean-clothes problem with a big
saving of time, work and clothes: Let
™me do the washing!
I do the daintiest lingerie or the
heaviest blankets with equal ease. I
am dependable and a willing worker.
I take the dirt out of clothes and the
drudgery out of washing. The, mo-
ment I enter the laundry, washday
worries disappear.
Yours truly,
ELECTRIC WASHER.
