NO DRY HOLES

This company has taken all the gamble out
of the oil business and offers you certainty of
loss.
In Western Colorado there have recently
been discovered immense bodies of soft shale, con-
tanning oil in large amounts. By crushing and
heating this shale the oil in it is changed into va
por. The vapor is then condensed by cold and
the crude oil, together with many valuable by
products, is distilled and later refined
This experiment has been in use for
many in other countries companies that have
been using it have paid large steady dividends But it B
only recently that the deposits United
States have been known We bought very choicest tract

Successful Drives

The Prison Mirror says: That the
drives" made in our Silent City in
behalf of war loans and donations to
field service auxiliaries were COM
pletely successful is evident f n m
the figures given out by the manage
ment.
The total amount subscribed by
the inmates to the First and second
Liberty Loans is (D $500, and az
$4,000 respectively. In addition to
this the sum of S., 708 SO was raised
by the sale Of War Saving Stamps,
making $34 ,208.83 applied to loans
to the government, or S37 per capita.
To the Red Cross. the knights of
Columbus and Jewish War Fund the
inmates subscribed So, 281 rs or S So
per capita. The Red Gross in this
i1sta7ce receiving $1.569.50, t h e
Knights of Columbus. S75725. and
the Jewish War Funds SIS. This
donation, carrying with it no finan-
cial recompense, is a splendid show
ing for free giving.
The total amount of moneys loan.
ed donated is $50, 480.58, or
$40.53 per capita.
The inmates have every reason to
congratulate themselves on t h S
demonstration of true patriotism.
No oratorical drives were necessary
to bring about this result. The quiet
and simple appeal of the Country's
necessity together with suggestion
that inmates participate in aiding,
was all that was needed for hearty
and generous response.
1t is hardly necessary to add that
the official family takes personal
pride in this splendid showing of
true Americanism by the inmates,
and in behalf Of the representatives
Of the committees in charge Of the
various funds thank the inmates in
dividually and collectively for doing
their bit.-Stillwater Gazette
