Chandler N. C "I don't believe

Elack-Draught; I have used it and my
mother's folks used it for colds fever-
ishness headache and deranged liver."

Mr. C. B. Trull a well-known farmer

"I have before now begun feeling
dull a headache would come on and
I would feel all full of cold and take
a few doses of Black-Draught and get
all right" adds Mr. Trull.
"Last year my brother had meas-
les flu and pneumonia. They wired
us; I went to Camp Jackson to look
him up. Down there different ones
were usiny preventatives. I stayed
with him. The only thing I used
was Black-Draught. It kept my
system cleansed and I kept well and
strong."

Field Defined on South.
While a portion of the north half
of section 27 -may yield some excellent
wells the engineers of the United
States Bureau of Mines warn against
an erratic drilUng campaign towards
the south.
It should be remembered they state
that the Texas Company's Laura No-
lan No. 2 which is approximately 1750
feet south of the north line ot sec-
tion 23 found water in what tl(j
engineers believed to be the Hewitt
sand at 2440 feet.
While this Is the only well in the
southern portion of Hewitt field which
has. found water in the Hewitt sund
otner dry holes being too shallow to
reach the Hewitt sand the engineers
believe that Laura Nolen No. 2 is too
far south to be in the producing area
and that the fleM is practically defin-
ed In 4 that direction.
To provide against unnecessary ex-
penditures operators should only drill
one well at a time in attempting to
extend the field further south.
By means of carefully prepared con-
tour maps and cross sections the Bu-
reau representatives have gained an
excellent knowledge of the possibilit-
ies ot extending the field. The go'ern-
mcnt has carried on the work for the
benefit of the oil operators and will
find It worth while to take advantage
of the information assembled before
starting new wells in uncertain terri-
tory. LOST.

The Facts of the Telephone Situation
in Oklahoma
THE COMPANY THE PUBLIC THE EMPLOYEES
ADEQUATE and efficient telephone service is essential to the continued prosperity
of all commercial enterprises and a telephone in the home for social intercourse is
fast becoming the same necessity as a telephone in the place of business.
TO FUHXISH the service the public will need during the immediate future large
additions to the existing telephone facilities costing millions of dollars mast be made.
NO TELEPHONE company can furnish this service without the full support of
the public it serves. This is true because the interests of the public the telephone
company and its employees are identical; each must co-operate and neither can per-
manently profit at the expense of the other. )
The Company furnishes the Plant and
receives Profits.
The Employees furnish the Effort and
receive Wages.
The Public furnishes the Revenue and
receives Service.
THE TELEPHONE situation is as much the concern of the public as it Is of the '
company and its employees. The sound support of the public should be ba3ed upon
a knowledge of the facts.
THE TELEPHONE industry in Oklahoma faces a crisis unparalleled during its
entire history the cumulative effect of conditions during the past four yean; condi-
tions which this Company was powerless to influence or control.
IT IS THE PURPOSE of this Company to fully inform the public of the facU
of this situation. f
THIS IS THE FIRST of a series of advertisements to place before the public .all
the facts of the telephone industry in the State of Oklahoma.
IT IS THE DUTY of all who have need for telephone service now and In the I
future to carefully read and consider these facts and if convincing to give a quick
direct and cordial support to the Company. If any statements are questioned they
can be certified. j
OUR WHOLE CLAIM for your support Is based upon estabLr$hed fact.
