NEW FIELD EXCITES
 OKLAHOMA OIL MEN

Oil men are becoming excited
 over the discovery of what is
 said to be an extension of the
 famous Glenn Pool. The Glenn
 Pool has produced over 100, OOO,- 900 barrels of oil in the last six
 years. It has made number of millionaires. Lying between the
 Glenn Pool and the Cushing Pool the Great Western Petroleum
 Company has just opened up 280 acres. Two wells have been drilled, and if these wells prove to be gushers, the value of this tract of land will be almost in- calculable. Oil men figure on five acres for a location, so this tract of 280 acres can be drilled for over fifty wells. The produc- tion of a well will range all the way from 40 to 1000 barrels per day, and with oil selling at 75 cents per barrel, it does not take long to make a fortune.
 What called attention to the supposed extension of the Glenn Pool in this vicinity was the opening up of the famous Scott well, which about a week ago about a week ago produced 800 barrels of oil in thirty hours. Althouge Oklahoma produces oyer S1.OOO, 900 per week in oil, and in this immediate vicinity over thirty three and third per cent of the oil used in the United States is produced, it would seem that the beginning has just been made, as there are hundreds of acres that have never been touched, and any field may spring into prominence over night and make a new and make a new crop of milIionaires. Every night the lobby of the Tlsua ho- tel is crowded with men eagerly discussing the latest news from the oil field and speculating in oil stock.
 The Great Western Petroleum Company issues weekly bulletins regarding the development in the oil field. and these bulletins may be obtained free simply on re- quest by addressing B. J. Waugh, Sales Manager. Boulder building, Tulsa, Oklahoma. Adv.

ChiIdIess Home and
 The Homeless Child

A. H. Gunnett, district super intendent of the Children's Home Society, vas in town last week making his annual visit to Hol- brook.
 Mr. Gunnett stated that he has spent more than fifteen years in this work of finding family homes for the homeless. neg lected and orphan children, and that in the past twelve months 482 children were cared for. In twenty-one years. 2,5OO children have passed through this home. and only three per cent of them have not turned out well.
 The fundamental creed of the society is that the family home is the only legitimate place that God ever intended a child to be. It is the best place for the form ation of character. If there was more attention paid to the proper formation of character, less would be necessary in the way of reformation.
 The plan is all right and the best charity on earth. The big gest thing in the world is the making of good men and women out of boys and girls. and the first consideration is a proper home life.
 Then there are so many good friends who have no children but who would be much better off if they had. so here is a plan which provides for a double bless for the chlldless home and the homeless child.
 The society is non-sectarian, and is supported entirely by con tributions. Headquarters, 2412 Griffith Avenue, Los Angeles, Cal, where further information may be had on application.

DIR. H. A. HUGHES
 VISITS HOLBROOK

Dr. H. A. Hughes, of Phoenix, who is conducting a quiet, but effective campaign for the Dem ocratic nomination for governor of Arizona at the primaries on September 8th. spoke last night at the Pastime theatre to large and enthusiastic audience.
 The meeting was called to or der by Attorney Thorwald Lar son, who introduced the genial doctor as one of the pioneers who had rescued Arizona from the dominion of drought and flood and all the elemental ex- tremes which lie between the night of savagery and the morn of statehood and self-govern- ment.
 The dean of Arizena's medical men showed a wealth of learn ing in political affairs and facility of expression that was reyela- tion to his hearers. The grace fuI compliments to the ladies. as well as the serious pledge that if nominated and elected to the high office of governor, he would enforce the law as it is on the statute books were received with enthusiasm by the listening au- dience.
 We learn that the doctor has accepted an invitation to deliver the Independence Day oration at Flagstaff, where big celebra- tioD has been arranged.
 One of the notable things about the doctors canvass is his constant meeting with many old friends or former patients, and the renewal of old acquaintances in Arizona running back to thirty years ago.
