poration. In addition, its completely
equipped great modern motor plant; its in
dividual axle plant; its large chassis parts
machine shop; its fine new hood, fender and
radiator departments; its automatic enarn
cling plant, were at last brought into full
action.
And now, through further retrenchment
and economies in purchasing, manufactur-
ing and selling costs we are enabled to of
fer these amazingly lower prices for quail
ity motor cas-.
Present material and labor costs do not
Justify these great reductions. The factory
has simply basedthe new prices on its firm
conviction that public appreciation Of Odds
mobile valus will continue to increase its
production volume sufficiently to justify
this step as sound business policy.

keep Oldsmobile values well in advance of
present markets.
That the values already offered have been
exceptionalis proven by Oldsmobiles stand
ing among the first half dozen of the big
producers of the year.
The chief reason the Odds Motor Works
was able to establish these exceptional val
ues was the fact that the 4-cyinder and
8-cylinder models, which represented the
greater percentage Of its 1921 production,
were built and priced on materials and
labor purchased at the gradually declining
prices Of the present year.

A clipping from recent issue Of the
Monroe Nears-Stdr reads:
{ Reports are to the effect that there
is likely to be q revival Of drilling for
oil and gas in Lincoln Parish within a
short time. The Lincoln Parish boom
before the financial depression was al
most as important as that which was
under way in other fields Of Northeast
ern Louisiana. Many tests well were
made, but finally nearly all the drilling
ceased when the slump came and the
oil campaigns have not been renewed.
~ meeting was held recently In the
Elks Club at Ruston for the purpose Of
reviving Interest in oil and gas, about
twenty-five or thirty leading business
men Of Lincoln Parish being present.
The meeting was called for the purpose
Of meeting Col. ]. B. Hardy, Of Powell,
Ark, an experienced driller and oil
man, who represents capitalists who
will drill iii Lincoln, II given sufi-
cient acreage and the right kind Of
backing.
Judge Holsted was In charge of the
meeting and several addresses were
delivered As result OF the gathering
tentative agreements were reached
that Lincoln Parish business men and
turner's win back the new oil cam
paign IL it should be started and steps
have been taken to secure acreage for
the syndicate north Of Ruston."

the three-hour test Of the Roy well, in
section 15-19-11, this parish, says:
This well has stimulated leasing
In the western part Of Webster, ana
contract has been let for well oqi the
land Of J. w. Hudson, in section 17-19-
10, work to be begun within thirty
days from November 21st. This test

the vicinity, some Of which VIII no
doubt be deep tests
B Section 1T-10-1O, Webster Parish,
lies but slightly more than three miles
east Of the new discovery well, and It
may reasonably be expected that the.
new test will yield something at least
good showing of oil. 1t Is the belief
of many that the new field Is to be
large in its scope. Continuing the
editor Of the Signal thus speaks OF

and the Mum well, in section 1-22-1O,
are making considerable Oh, along with
the heavy gas pressure, but the amount
has not been estimated, and the report
