GREAT NEWS!
GARBER'S ERA OF DEVELOPMENT STARTS
FROM this day on Garber takes her place in the list of prosperous
booming* cities of Oklahoma. Garber's greatest municipal problem
has been solved. The lack of a good hotel has held back the development
of this field and town more than any other one thing. To solve this
problem The Garber Hotel Company has been organized with a capital stock of
SIGG.OOO. Its purpose is to build and operate a first-class modern hotel in
this city. Every dollar earned by this hotel will be divided among its
stockholders. As an investment it would be impossible to find a better,
chance. This stock will be offered to the people of Garber exclusively for
two weeks. Every resident of this community is expected to do his or her
share. Investigate! Get busy! Get in tune for the boom! Its coming!
