shooter" Reilly. The Associated
Press, the United Press and Uni
versal Service have told time and
again of the mighty oil wells he has
drilled and the wonderful profits he
has made for those who were asso-
ciated with him.
The whole world knows of the
Trapshooter Oil Company which
"Trapshooter" Reilly organized and
of which he was president. This
company owned what was consid-
cred the most valuable oil property
in the world, a shareholder of which
made profits at the rate of from
$4,000 to $4,000 for 500 invested
and the whole world recognizes, too,
that the Trapshooter Oil Company
was "Trapshooter" Reilly.
He it was who located the we'll
for the Kentucky Company that re-
suited in the 4,0O0-barrel gusher on
the Wick lease in Stephens County,
in April, 1921, the first big producer
in the Ivan district.

covery we'll at Pierce Junction,
Texas, for the M cSweeney
Company, which resulted in one Of
the greatest wells in the Gulf
coastal fields and opened up an
other Spindletop in July. 1921.
His word is law and his opinions
are sacred with the officials of the
largest producing oil companies in
the Midi Continent field.
His name and the famous profits
he has made for his shareholders
and associates have been used by

I feel that these very days stand on the verge of another world
stirring industrial triumph which bids fair to eclipse my famous Kansas
achievement when my stockholders won from $4,000 to $31 ,Oo0 on an in
vestment of $foO-in eight months.
People of Wyoming join me without fail in this enterprise.
Only a comparatively few of you had the opportunity of becoming
my stockholders back in the hectic days at Eldorado.
But now-you have but to make your decision at once and you are
with me in the browning enterprise of my career.
The oil business pays millions. am pushing perhaps the greatest
development program ever undertaken by one man.. This is by far the
most exceptional opportunity you have ever had to strike for your share
of the great petroleum riches.
In becoming one of my stockholders you are following a man who
has proved to all the world he knows with fairly accurate certainty where
the great new pools are likely to lie and knows how to make those pools
yield fortune to himself and friends.
