d physician, in a quick transaction consumated over the long distance telephone between Burkburnett and New York; even the telegraph being too slow; $500,000 was required as the first payment to be paid within the hour with not sufficient time remain ing for even telegraphic transmission of this sum in cash. The matter was hurriedly arranged through a New York banker who happened to be in the vicinity and who was reached on the Texas end of the telephone for the purpose of covering the deposit of this amount in Texas, and the deal was closed in record breaking time with an expenditure of the paltry sum of $6 000 for telephone tolls alone.
 This is a community of money and oil both circulating in enormous quantities. Rich and poor alike throughout the country are profiting literally in cash dividends. It was stated to me while in the field upon what I consider unimpeachable au- thority, that over $5,O00.00O had all ready been paid in actual cash divi dends to stockholders by companies in the Burllburnett field during the past eight months. This huge sum has gone to the rich and the poor through out the country in nearly every state in the union.
 'In stating that I am thoroughly satisfied with the result of my trip, as far as establishing the unquestionable value of Aritex and Burkley holdings in the locality is concerned, is putting it lightly, for l am highly enthusiastic over the possibilities ahead for the success of the wells now drilling and to be drilled on these holdings by the Aritex Oil company.

 About One-third of a mile west reached Burllley No. which was then drilling close to 1850 feet and every thing proceeding with the utmost pre- cision and care. Here I found that everyone from the superintendent down to the last driller on the job, thor oughly convinced that they were go- ing to strike a well and this in the course of few days. On this same 40-acre block and a short distance north lies the 5-acre holding of Aritex, known as Burk- Bethel No. 2, situated just as advantageOusly as BurkIey No. 7, and practically surrounded by wells all flowing large production. Further more, in this locality there were sev- eral other wells then actually drilling through the oil sands with oil show ing and every indication at hand for large production. My inspection of this northwesterly section of the Burkbur- nett field bears out even the widest reports circulated regarding the won derful increased production of oil here.
 T found all of the Burl1ley and Ari- tex holdings situated right in the center of all this activity, and do not see how they can help striking oil in large quantities. The Burk- Waggoner. Wonder We'll of the Burkburnett field is flowing in the next block ad- joining Burkley No. and Aritex No. 3. This well and lease was sold for S2,000,000 on the day l visited the field. The details of this transaction serve as a graphic illustration of the manner in which millions change hands on but a few hours notice. Sometimes mo- ments are sufficient to record transac- tions that for magnitude of the sums involved are almost staggering to the average mind. The Burk- -Waggoner well and lease was purchased by Bar ney Barouch, the New York multi millionaire capitalist, and his brother

Dear Mother:-
Your letter received while we were
on the road to our destination. This
is my first chance to write few lines.
We stayed over in a small village
near Luxembourg. We are getting to
where the speech is not "parlee VOC"
and with little thought, can get
myself understood better than in
France. We are having rainy wealth
er but no snow yet.
Our plans did not work out as we
expected, and of course, that will de-
lay our homecoming. Nevertheless,
we are having very nice sightseeing
trip. No travelling at night. We bill
let in small towns as we 20 thru, sleep
in nice buildings. Last night we slept
in hay loft, but were driven out and
finally ran onto a nice place where
they spoke German and got a good,
square meal. Just think, we had white
dishes to eat out of and a real table
to eat on, which is like home coming
to us after being in the woods SO long.
can imagine what q great time
you folks had when you heard the
good news.

We were within two miles Of it once

cling than stay in q village two days.
This is certainly a beautiful country.
The scenery here is much better here
than around France, but give me the

have here is no snow, but plenty Of
rain.
