And when this happens, we still own 1850 promising acres
in Pecos county, the Fl. Stockton Field. Several wells under
Drilling way and many more getting ready to start sDriling.
Several wells near enough to our holdings to prove them fox us
and make them worth Hundreds of Thousands of Dollars to the
Syndicate.
The Fort Stockton Field, as many of you know, is the home
of the greatest shallow wells in Texas. Our 2.560 acres is due
south of these shallow wells. And on ont of the largest Oil
Structures in Texas

and if l am successful in getting it Drilled, as 1 feel sure 1 will

CAMP MEETING.

| Well friends the time for our an
nual camp meeting is only about
seven weeks in the future, and many
lare talking and thinking of it al
ready. This has been an unusually
strenuous, depressing and discourag-
ing season for the country popula-
ton, and we feel sure that the camp
meeting with its attendant blessings
and joys both social and spiritual
will be relished, and blessed of God
to the encouragement and uplift of
all who participate or put them
selves under its influence. We have
not forgotten the great benefits de-
rived on this sacred spot last year
and we are all anticipating a greater
time this year, for last year we were
almost too tired to rest. We have
some work to do this year, but day
or two we'll put in, by us all, will take
care of this. We have to make some
new seats, and a little other work on
some of the tents, etc. We have
some collections, to make on our sub
scription list left over from last sea-
son, but we feel sure these will come
up all right, and that withal, will
have funds sufficient for the work.
Our faithful Home Demonstration
Agent Miss Doney is having her short
course at the Camp Ground this year
and we hope to do the work needed
on that time, as there doubtless will
be many visitors in attendance and
we should want every nook and cor
ner of the place "spic and span"
Watch the Eagle next week. We
think. that by then we may have a !
definite plan and time to begin work.
Till then, let's all be thinking,
planning, and getting ready to do
our part. / also have an interesting
letter for next week from one Of our
loyal Camp Ground lovers and sup !,
porters. More about the camp meet
ing next week.
Faithfully,
MRS. A. F. GALLOWAY, /
Sec. Treas. Camp Ground.
