Since the beginning of the oil
and gas industry in Oklahoma,
owners of mineral rights have
been forced to wait patiently for
that all-important telephone call
from a petroleum landman, or an
oil company. Finally, there is no
longer any need for you to wait.

5. If we are unable to obtain a
contract which you consider
fair. you owe us nothing.
Associated Mineral Owners of
America solves those problems
for all involved.
DEAR BRIDES: I think there should be some
changes made before you have children. And for
openers, one should be your fiance's attitude.
In summary, the Associated
Mineral Owners of America was
formed for mineral rights owners
to assure them the best possible
price for their rights, and to pro-
mote the best possible prospects
of drilling a well.
DEAR ABBY: Why do Jews always answer a question
Swith another question?
If you wish to place your
mineral rights with Associated
' Mineral Owners of America, or if
you just want additional informa-
tion, call:
It’s simply a matter of follow-

1. You contract with us and set
your own minimum price for
your mineral rights.
2. We contact our subscribing
oil companies.
3. We negotiate the best possi-
ble arrangements, and price,
for you.
4. When we are successful in
placing your mineral rights we
receive a placement fee on
your guaranteed earnings.
AT LAST, THERE IS SOMEONE
TO TURN TO!
DEAR ABBY: I would like your opinion of something my
fiance said last night. I asked him if he had ever changed a
baby's diaper, and he replied, "Absolutely not: the thought
of it repulses me!"
Abby, I am not saying that this particular task should be
shared equally between us, but I would like to think that if
we had a child and I happened to be away for a few hours,
my husband would change our baby's diaper if necessary.
What do you think?
DEAR ABBY: My wife and I have heen happily married
for 12 years. I'm 35 and my wife is 33. We've got two great
kids My problem is my mother-in law. She's 56 “Granny”
has been coming on to me very strong lately Every time she
sees me, she presses up against me very dose and gives me
the kind of kisses no guy should be getting from his mother
in-law.
She doesn't drive, so she asks me to take her places, and
when I do, the battle is really on. She's not a bad looking
woman for her age, and I’ve got to admit I did dream the
other night that she made it with me and it wasn't all that
bad.
Please give me some advice on how to discourage her
without hurting her feelings, because I really don't know
how to handle this.
WEAKENING IN GROSSE POINTE WOODS

Local teacher attends
DEAR ABBY: Well, I sent myself some flowers on
Mother’s Day again this year, and signed my son's name on
the card. Yes, he’s living and doing very well. But he is
thoughtless. I wonder if any other mother has done this?
ASHAMED IN SAN ANTONIO
College the students spend
an hour a day with a master
teacher, then an hour in the
language laboratory to
listen, then to an apprentice
teacher for two hours con-
versation and grammar.
"Of course, this is impossi-
ble at the high school level,
but the methods used by the
master teacher, and our
language laboratory will
make many portions
valuable for our students.
“The SR or structure re-
inforcement method gives
students an opportunity to
use Spanish words for ob-
jects in the classroom, for in-
stance, taking part in a
dialog with others in the
class. Each will have an op-
portunity for speaking in
Spanish an average of five
times daily."
Mrs. Campbell feels the
course will be equally useful
for her French classes.
DEAR WEAKENING: Aw, come off it, sonny. Just
tell Granny to behave herself or you'll have to report
her to your wife. And if that doesn't cool her off,
you're the first 35-year-old man I ever heard of who
can't run faster than a 56-year-old grandmother.
DEAR ABBY: We have an uncle who made a strange
request some time ago. He asked us (his nieces) to be his
pallbearers when he dies.
He is very sick now and he repeated that request. My
father disapproves because he never heard of female
pallbearers. I for one would like to be a pallbearer at my
uncle’s funeral because he is my favorite uncle. My
cousins also would like to serve as pallbearers. Have you
ever heard of such a thing? And even if you haven't, do you
see anything wrong with it?
Associated Mineral Owners of
America was founded by a group
of concerned oilmen and mineral
rights owners who have recogniz-
ed the need for expedient
negotiations of potential energy
development. These founders,
through Associated Mineral
Owners of America, are helping
to meet the needs of both in-
dividual mineral rights owners
We charge no membership
fees. The mineral rights owner
lists his mineral rights through
us at a price satisfactory to him.
The mineral owner receives pay-
ment when we place his rights

Mineral Owners of America
receives a placement fee of 5%
of the total lease bonus paid to
the mineral rights owner.

Associated Mineral Owners of
America eliminates the worry
and the hassles for mineral
rights owners who don't know
whom to contact or how to go
about it. In many cases mineral
rights owners have no idea what
their rights are worth. On the
other side of the coin, petroleum
landmen spend literally hours
and hours pouring over court-
house records trying to find the
legal mineral rights owners to
some property in which they may
have an interest. Major oil com-
panies, geologists, and
engineers oftentimes have no
idea whom to contact or how to
begin serious negotiations.
Associated Mineral Owners of
America is an organization
designed to meet the ever
changing needs of mineral rights
owners, petroleum landmen,
engineers, geologists, and oil
companies. With energy
demands increasing daily, and
yet-untapped oil and gas
reserves throughout the state,
there is a major need for rapid
location of unleased mineral
rights, and speedy yet thorough
negotiation of fair and equitable
contracts for all involved.
