CURSE OF SOCIAL

Three free clinics for the treat

diseases have been established in Ok
lahoma by representatives of the
State and Federal Departments of
( Health. One Is at Oklahoma City.
, operated in conjunction with the
State University hospital. one is at
Lawton, Oklahoma, and the other at
Miami. Oklahoma. Others will be es-
tablished in the more populOus
centers.
/ Starting of these clinics marks the
beginning of state wide campaign
, by the State and Federal Health De-
partments against veneral diseases in
Oklahoma. The Federal Govern
ment has appropriated $4,000 for
the work In this state. The legisla-
ture now Is considering bill for the
/, appropriation of an equal sum.
! Lieut.. A. J. Mclaughlin of the U.
s. Public Health Service has been
detailed to direct the organization
work which will be carried on under
the supervision of DIR. J. c. Mahr.
former State Health Commissioner
\ for Oklahoma.
The campaign is directed at the
carriers of these diseases. Plans for
their quarantine and control have
been worked out. These involve the
cooperation by the local physicians
and the State Board of Health.
The experience of the army In han
ding drafted men last year showed
the veneral disease problem to be one
of the most serious confronting the
civil population. More than 10000
of the drafted men reporting for sery-
ice were found to be afflicted with
some form of veneral disease. These
men, because they were unfit for tht

fore they could begin their training

enormous.

A PROMISING OIL TEST

Elsewhere in this issue of the Her
aid will be found the advertisement
of the Red Hill Oil and Gas Co. of
Woodward, Oklahoma. now drilling
we'll few miles east of that city.
This ad is of course an invitation to
buy stock in that company.
There Is no investment that pays
as big returns as winning oil COM
pany. The investor should be certain
that the officers of the company are
men of unquestiOned integrity; that
they are operating in territory hav.
ing favorable surface indications of
the probable presence of oil and gas
and have sufficient acreage for a
profitable development even II but
small initial well is brought in; and
that they have sufficient equipment
and assets to insure the completion
of the test. Given these essentials
wildcat field offers the biggest re-
turns. and from our information the
Red Hill company possesses these
essentials.
This company has experienced all
the difficulties that beset the pioneers
In new field but the work has been
prosecuted with vigor that has ov-
, ercome all obstacles and barring un-
avoidable delays incident to break
downs and the necessity of obtaining
heavier machinery and equipment,
has proceeded without interruption
and, from the opinions of the geolo-
gist and the driller. their efforts are
about to be crowned with success.
II is to the credit of the manage
ment that the company has at no
time been classed as a mere promot-
| er, concerned only in the sale of oil
stock. 1t is a real development COM
pany and has never sold its stock
above par. This Is the more remark
able because of the fact that with the
| first discovery of oil, previous purch-
| asers sold their stock. of par value
| $1,000. for as high as $4,000 per
share. yet the company withdrew its
stock from the market because the
officers were unwilling to take ad-
vantage of the boom till 1t was prov
en- beyond question that they had a
producing well.
This policy has earned for the Red
Hill a reputation for square dealing
and stamps the project as a real de-
velopment test and those who can
, afford to buy stock are assured a
promising chance to make a big win
ming by helping to open new field.
1t will pay to watch the development
at the Red Hill.

ers of scrubs the difference between
the market price and ten cents o
pound has become so general and en-
phatic that the measure promises to
receive favorabl action in both the
serate and house of the present leg
islature.
The provision creating Il state fund
from which money may be borrowed,
for the purpose of buying registered
bulls. in sums not exceeding $4,000
at a low rate of interest, has reached
the point of popularity which insures
its inclusion in the proposed act, 1t
| Is said
Inasmuch as an appreciable num-
, ber of both houses have expressed
their intention to vote for the meas
ure which will result in practically
doubling the value OF cattle in the
state in five years, the handwriting
on the wall would seem to read

The only opposition with which the
move Is meeting Is from speculators
who will be restricted from pannine
suit OF the contemplated legislation
but the provisions regulating the
quality and standard of the bulls In
which the state may loan money will
stand.
