in business in its precincts. New
Healdton is the town which Jake l..
Hamon will place on the market in
the Healdton oil fields thirty miles

tial business houses and good homes,
they will put in good stocks of mer-
chandise and the activity required to
build a city Of five thousand people
within thirty days will be witnessed
here.
The opportunity Of witnessing such
activity is the chance to share in its
profits come to but very few people.
Any man with iron in his blood. any
man who has courage enough TO build

to share in the profits and in the new
life that it will bring.
This town is the only railroad town

generation Is gone, other nearby fields
are being developed, only the surface
of oil production in Southern Okla
homa has been, touched and greater
fortunes will be made here in the
next three years than have been made
in the past three.
If you are in the midst of these
activities the opportunities will come
TO YOU. If you stay away they can
never come.
1t matters not what business you
are now in or what work you are
trained to do there is a distinct call
for you in this new town which will
