Notable Gathering Of Long Time
Service Men

When the Lozier Motor Car Co. de
ciced entering Detroit and establish
ing their headquarters in this city,
numerous conferences were held in
New York Al these conferences the
various officials OF the company were
present. and al one OF the meetings
discussion arose in regard TO the
length OF service OF many or the en-
ployes Of the company.
I'VE found that we had probably
as notable gathering OF long time
service men as could be found in
almost any factory in the country, and
especially in an automobile factory.
said c. A Emise, sales manager.
The Lozier company. during its bi-
cycle days gathered together very
strong working force and carried these
into the Lozier Motor Co.
Mr. J. d. Perrin, the engineer OF the
company, came straight from a tech
nical school 10 the employ OF the com
pany. Is years ago.
Mr. Sam Reuger. the treasurer OF
the company. started 20 years ago,
as an Office boy.
Mr. c. A. Emise, sales manager. has
been with the Lozier company for Il
years.
Mr.. z. C. Cleary has a service OF IL
years To his credit,
Mr.. w. S. Mead. assistant sales man
ager. has been with the company nine
years.
There are two stenographers that
have been I'm the service OF the COM
pany for ten years and nine years, re-
Gpectively.
An interesting story Of Mr.. Reuger's
connection with the company, was re-
lated by Mr. Emise, yesterday: "Mr.
Chandler was an Office boy with the
Lozier Co, and had been In this posi-
ton year when the late Mr.. Lozier,
senior. asked him whether 1t would
be possible for him 20 find them an
Office boy. Mr. Chandler hesitated
and seemed very much worried until
Mr.. Lozier informed him that he In
tended TO promote him and make him
copy clerk. when Mr.. Chandler
promptly ran 20 a business college and
secured Mr. Reuger. These two gen
tlemen, with service OF q and 20

A THREE MILLION ACRE SALE.
Government DisposIng Of Oklahoma
Lands ut Public Auction.

Ardmore, Okla, Dec. 3.-Editor
Ke0wee Courier: No doubt there
are many people in South Carolina
and Oconee county who do not know
that there Is to be sale at auction
Of nearly three million acres OF land
to the highest bidder and on easy
terms, in the eastern and southern
portions OF the State OF Oklahoma.
This land will be bought for from
one to six dollars per acre, with 25
per cent cash, balance in one and
two years time. The same grade of
land offered for sale here would sell
for from $25 to $50 per acre in
South Carolina. This land will be
sold in tracts Of from 10 to 100
acres. These lands are put on sale
by the United States government,
which guarantees a perfect title to
same, and will be sold from the 10Th
to 31st Of December at Ardmore, Ok
these unallotted lands to any one
who may want to locate in this
country.
TO show the quality of some of
the lands for sale | will say that I
have rented from the government,
for agricultural purposes, and paid
as rent 10 cents per acre and rented
it out for the fourth Of cotton and
received for rent Of same between
five and seven dollars per acre with
out the use OF any fertilizer. In fact,
there is not a sack Of fertilizer used
in the State of Oklahoma for any
purpose.
Now Is the time for the young
man, the old man, the single man.
the married man or any other kind
of man who wants to buy a farm
for about One-fourth what you would
have to pay in South Carolina, on
one and two years time, that will
make third more cotton to the acre
without fertilizer than the lands in
Oconee county with fertilizer, to
come to Oklahoma and be OH the
ground for the purpose of buying
some Of these lands from the 18th TO
tho 31st day Of December.
