In your first assault of September
12th you attained every objective, n
spite of every possible ob-tade, both
natural and artificial, you progres-cd.
< onutcr attacks by superior fore s
never checked your advance. Finally,
in the raids of September 211 an t -'•
you penetrated the famous Hiudenbicg
Ijiu*. winning the special couimeuda
tion of the coinmandiug general of'.he
1th < di ps. In the Argonne Sector yo.i
again won the praise from the coin
tiititiding general of the .'lr«l Corj>s an I
also from the commanding general • I
the Nt Ann\ for the capture of Rati
theville and the heights north of that
place, a feat which had thrjec been
;itt«inpfed without success by others.
Again in November 10th, aftei a
nioht mart h of fifteen miles, you at
ta.ked: advancing across country
swept uv machine gun and artillci^-
tir. \ oil entered the towns of Baalou
aiei Stenay; the very spot from whjeh
the I'rown Prince in tl^e height of liis
power, directed the assault on Verdun.
To halt your advance, the enemy threa
in his lust divi-joii. It was beaten.
Not only dd you gain every obj'.v
tive against which you were launched;
"t tmlv did you exploit every success
to the limit allowed, but every foot of
ground you took, you held under tire
from front, flank and rear. Shelled
with igli explosives aud gas. machine
gunned and bombed by aircraft, win

Tl« hivisjoii as you know, was 7~
days under ^re without relief (other
than change of sector). Of that time
you held the front line alone I!' days
and at least half of the divisional se
tor for days more. This, despit ■
the fact that you led the attack in one
major offensive and executed *i\ of
th several minor operations under
taken by the division, not to mention
tlit pur-uit through the Boisr de Hall"-
to the Mens, and the attack on Stenay.

An Oil Proposition
That'll get you in on the Ground Floor
No matter what vou have had before, look into this. It is worth
investigating. We have some of the best holdings in Garfield
countv. in section 19 24 3w. and we expect to drill soon.
Our acreage is divided into units. One individual is limited to
not more than three.
Ths comnanv is now in nrocess of organization, and bv lining ud
now. vou will be in on the lower floor
Remember, we will have but a liimited number of units and first
come first served. Don't wait--vou mav not get in. As soon as
the units have been placed, organization will be effected. You
will be of the company and will have a sav in the election of of-
ficers when it is organized.
Here is what the Meritt Co., Ltd , of Enid, has to say about the
outlook in the Enid Oil territory:
• • A close study of the geological map will convince :m < ne of the
wonderful po sibilities of the oil industry mi Garfield and N^oble Qoun
ties. The drilling of many wells during the last few years has pro\
eli that not less than l." sands are encountered above the Mississippi
lime. The grade of oil is high and 'commands a substantial premium
o\er the quoted price for Oklahoma oils. The kirpatricU well extends
the hillings field over eight miles. The Van India, hniican, lieihock,
Ifed t'ros*, Town ite and intervening wi,!- will extend the (iarber
field from four to fifteen miles. All lh---e wells are getting down to
interesting depths and their succes. \ • I{ add inillions ami millions to
the resources of this territory. The gc.ieral linaiicial situation iloes
not warrant speciilat ion, but cold-blooded. t'ul irt vestments w ill
pro\ e profitable, iu any proposition i i the l.i id oil territory that has
merit .
The Madden lea e lies about one mile north of the Duncan, about
two miles northwest of the Heithock, aud about, four miles south-
west of the Van Delia. We believe che location a most promising
one.
