nearing the big dividend paying oil sand, and
could walk over a few hundred feet due west to
the well of the Burk-Bridge Company, which has
just struck the pay sand and has stopped drilling
to set and cement easing before bringing in this
well, YOU would agree with US in our absolute be-
lief that the Burns-BWnett Company is one of
the best and safest investments in the Burk-Bur-

is exceptionally low. which viii mean LARGE

is one Of the best in the field, and another Burb-
