One Hundred Barrels a Day

AS stated in this paper a week
ago, the Equity Oil company struck
oil in its well No. . in the Yates
Center field on the first of the month.
At that time the flow had not been
determined although the indications
were all in favor of the well being
a big one.
Since that time DIR. Walker has
received further particulars of the
results of the shooting of No. 2 and
we take the following from a letter
received concerning it, dated April
5th: "She is sure real oil well.
Hole is full of oil this morning. We
baled out about ten barrels of the
finest oil you ever laid your eyes on.
Hole filed up again at once We
shot her with sixty quarts of nitro
glycerine in the presence of big
crowd. Will soon have her under
the pump and she will be good for
hundred barrels at least"
The company, according to the
same letter, will start we'll No. 3 in
the Yates Center pool at once and
follow it with Nos. and 5, with the
idea of getting ten wells that will
aggregate 1000 barrels a day, or an
estimated production of $2,250.0O at
the present price of oil.

ENTHUSIASTIC RALLY
Crested Butte One Hundred per cent
Loyal

After much telegraphing and hard
work the Third Liberty Loan COM
mittee succeeded in getting Sergeant
Major Lowery of the 1st Canadian
Expeditionary Forces of Toronto,
Canada, for talk which was given
Tuesday afternoon at the City Hall.
Sergeant Major Lowery is at present
recovering from severe injuries re-
ceived in service and is going through
the country to awaken interest in
this Third Liberty Loan drive by tell
ing what he has seen and what our
own boys must see and do, and what
we at home must do to help. No one
can surely be Indifferent now after
hearing the things this man had to
tell-no one can ever forget his duty
ernment really means.
The program which was gotten up
in a few hours was quite complete
nevertheless. The audience opened
the meeting with an earnest singing
of the Star Spangled Banner. The
Rev. j. S. Ferris of Gunnison, was
asked for a talk and proved an elo
quent, enthusiastic patriot, who said
many things that will be remembered
by his hearers. Then the afternoon
which proved all too short for the
big gathering, was given over to Ser
geant- Major Lowery and those who
unfortunately failed to hear him,
missed an opportunity they can never
have again. The program closed fit
tingly by the singing of America.
The D. & R. G. not failing to do
their part sent up special train for
the return trip to Gunnison. as
program was arranged there for the
evening. Beside j. S. Ferris an es
cort of Gunnison's prominent busl-
ness men made up the visiting party.
They were H. f. Lake, Jr., of the
News Champion; VIM. C. Blair, of the
Empire; and Ben Jorgensen, in charge
of the publicity for the Liberty Loan
in this county.

UNCLE SAM TO HONOR
EVERY BOND BUYER
Pretty Flag of Red, White and Blue
for Liberty Loan Campaign

Perhaps no one feature of the COM
ing Liberty Loan drive is causing so
much favorable comment as the Hon
or Flag that will have an important
part in the campaign for the Loan.
A badge of honor for deeds to be ac-
complished in subscribing for bonds,
it has already created great friend
ly rivalry between cities, towns and
counties in every state in the Union,
and will undoubtedly prove a mighty
stimulant to subscribing the loan,
which is the end to be desired. Brief
ly, the Honor Flag system, as ex-
| planned by J. H. Burton, a salesman
in New York state, and father Of the
flag system, who has been visiting
/ the headquarters of the various Fed
eral Reserve districts, is this:
A small white flag with red bord-
er and three vertical blue stripes on
it will be given each bond subscriber
during the drive. This is to be hung
or pasted in the window of the SUBJ
scriber's home, or in his place of
business. At the bottom is written
the name of the subscriber, and in
case of business firms the amount
,, subscribed.
In each town, or other community
that is a subdivision of any Liberty
Loan division, there is kept in pub
lie place an honor roll in sthe form
of large window sheet. At the
bottom of this are to be printed at
the close of each day of the cam
paign the names of subscribers in
that community, alphabetically ar
ranged.
To each community as it reaches
it's allotted quota of bonds will be
given a cloth honor flag 30x5O inches,
to be flown from public flagstaff in
that city. To each state going over
its quota another and larger flag
will be issued.
The Treasury Department has fur
ther agreed to reward the efforts of
the early subscribers by having the
flag raising at each of the winning
communities photographed for the
moving picture companies, and these
pictures will be shown throughout
the country simultaneously. This is
only one more phase of the commu-
nifty competitive feature. A plan is
being considered of issuing star for
the flags whose winners succeed in
doubling their quota.
Mr.. Burton has had the honor flag
copyrighted and the copyright turned
over to the government.

If they are not Good, We Make Them
Good

1t is understood that good deal
of pro- o-Germanism is cropping out in
our little town lately. Saturday one
of these enemy parasites, who are
living on our precious American free
country instead of for it, became a
little too open in his expressions and
was emphatically warned. A resi-
dent here some five years, John Ga
zoni, Tyrolean by birth and senti-
ments was invited to contribute to
the tobacco barreP for the Sam
mics. He answered, ITO hell with the
American soldiers, I'll smoke my own
tobacco" In less time than it takes
to write it good American crowd
had pounded little sense into his
Kultured gray matter. AS a result
he purchased SO cents worth Of to-
bacco and we feel sure he has little
more respect for. the American SOL
diers even though it was just the
"going to be" soldiers who demanded
the respect.
And let us say right here there's
enough good American women in this
little town to resent remarks pro-
German from our fair sex who seem
to think they can get away with
such remarks, and we take this oc-
casion to warn them of the down
right-ness of our American feelings.
