At this writing the corporate name
of the company, while probably as
above, is yet not fully decided,
and it is not known who will
be put in charge of its large affairs.
For all these details, however, lola
can very well afford to wait. The
great thing is that the deal has been
made and that millions of dollars in
the hands OF men who are used to
handling millions, are now Interested
in developing the immense resources
of this comfy and in building up here
at lola city that shall be the rival

that.
