LOT OWNERS WILL
OWN WELL

Completed either as a gasser
or an oil producer or both. the
well will belong ABSOLUTELY
to the owners Of the lots in the
O.Haire addition. The people of
Sunburst are all joining the Sun
burst Pool, purchase of a share
carrying a deed in fee simple to a
standard city lot. Their interest
in the pool gives them an equal
share in the drilling well, and the
lot owners will compose the com
pany which will handle production
and divide the profits. Then each
individual lot owner can drill on
his own lot. if he chooses.
There aren't enough investors
in Sunburst to handle the entire
pool and thus this invitation: TO
CONSERVATIVE INVESTORS.

THREE
WAYS TO WIN
AT SUNBURST'

1t you do not make your fortune in the next five years,
1t will take you a long, long time to make your first
million.
l am pointing out nothing new when l re-assert that
the greatest opportunities America has known are within
the reach Of every man and woman who has ambition to
get above the drugery of a daily wage.
1t is my firm belief that the greatest fortunes in his
tory are going to be amassed in this Sunburst field. AS
it stands today it is the largest oil field in the world.
Think of the fortunes Glenn Pool, Cushing, Mexia and
Breckenridge have made and then recall that all these
great fields might be set down in the midst Of the Kelvin
Sunburst field and they would not cover half Of it.

MADE IN -
MEXIA LOTS

Everyone knows the history of
Mexia, the Texas oil town where
land values climbed until lots
which cost $3.50 at the start of
the boom sold for as high as 500
600. The Sunburst oil field is in
its infancy; a little more than four
months old. The number of chill
dren attending the public school
of Sunburst today is greater than
the total population was last June.
: when oil was struck in L. C. Ste
%venson's Sunburst discovery we'll.
YET THE BOOM HASN'T
STARTED.
Sunburst is a permanent town.
Sunburst will be a prosperous
town as long as there is a drop
OF oil being produced in this vast
field. An Investment in Sunburst
IS as permanent as in a Tulsa or
a Casper. Other great cities and
good towns will doubtless grow up,
but Sunburst will always prosper,
because it is q good town, ideally
located, with an easy haul for
drilling machinery, to all parts Of
the field. 1t is the unloading point
and the shopping point for the
major operators and there is no
season why it should not always
continue to be. 1t has enterpris-
ing business men and co-operators
from the word CO. A lot in
Sunburst, by itself, is a sound,
certain business Investment

WATER IS NOW
WORTH 81 E BBL.

CAN YOU SEE HOW IT is
POSSIBLE TO LOSE?
You might say that the well
could strike water. That is posi-
bic though unfortunately impreb-
able. An artesian well would be
a fortune in itself, for everyone
knows that water is more yalua-
BILE than oil in the Sunburst field
today. 1t will be even more val
liable before this time next year.
In order to drill this well we
must either have enough money to
carry on drilling operations or
raise money from an outside
source. The Sunburst Pool needs
money to drill this well. To drill
this well it becomes necessary to
earnestly solicit the support of the
public, and offer the public q legit-
innate, clean ,business-like propo-
sition. The same Identical deal
that is made III the oil fields be-
tween oil men. The management
of the Sunburst Pool must be IN
is n DIRECT OWNER in the
property. Il S1Cn investor Is
protected to the utmost because
each investor owns his own lot in
fee simple and a direct share in
the company which entities him to
a pro rata share of the oil run.
The investor is an OWNER and
the investor is vested with rights
to eNescise his own power in the
management of the We'll when il
is in production. either gas or oil.
This is the only kind of an inter
est that Mr.. O'IIaire or any other
hard-headed business mar would
buy, and therefore he would not
ask the public to buy something
that he would not himself invest
in.
1t is a four-way winner. Some
of the choicest lots in the tract
are yet available. Now is the
chance for the biggest winning.
If you are going TO make any
other investment in Sunburst field
INSURE IT With a share in the
SUNBCRST POOL.
Choose your lot by number and
write. or-to make sure of get
ting your ch0iee-wire at the ex-
pense of MIR. 0'Haire for r%eserva-
ton.
Great Falls tribune. [volume] (Great Falls, Mont.) 1921-current, 1922-11-26

Your lot is worth more than your in
vestment today. The minute a drilling
rig starts work ON this tract, the value
of the lots will double. And when the
big rush starts in the spring, every lot
in the town. and several more additions,
Great Falls tribune. [volume] (Great Falls, Mont.) 1921-current, 1922-11-26

will sky-rocket in price. Included in
the O'Haire addition is three blocks on
the main BUSINESS STREET. Two
blocks away, lots are being sold for ST.
900 each. All the lots in the addition
are going on sale at a uniform price

HOW ABOUT WATER

Water is the hane of oil men
in most fields. In the Sunhurst
well, a flow of water would be
more valuable than oil, for use
of the town and for drilling pur-
poses in the district. 1T is i'm
probable that this we'll will get
water but it would be highly de-
sirabIe.

WHEN THE WE'LL
STRIKES GAS

You will have an equal share
in the uas we'll. To the resident
of Sunhurst. this means free light
and fuel, from the earnings of
the well. Gas is practically as
sured. Natural gas fill be a big
boon to the industrial develop
ment of Sunhurst.

Now double ii and see what a
10o-barrel we'll would mean: then
a 300 barrel or a 500 barrel well.
Anyone who knows the story of
the Hogan or the Black Magic
wells can understand the POSSIBLE
tiles TIT the Sunburst Pool well.
HOW WOULD YOU LIKE TO
HAVE A so II EL OIL
WE'LL IN YOUR BACK YARD?
Nothing has been said as yet
about the value of your lot.
You pay $3.50 for the lot of your
own choice. Many of these lots
are across the valley from the
original townsite where lots are
selling from $3.50 to 800 each.
Some Of these lots are on the
main street of the town. within q
block and a half of the postoffice
and a block from the Northern
hotel.
Corner lots go for the same
price-S150.

OIL, GAS OR
WAT ER WILL
MAKE FORTUNE

want to play for largest stakes with least possible risk.
Absolute necessity for money to carry on Independent
operations in this vast field makes opportunities which
will never again be available.
The town of Sunburst MUST have a supply of natural
gas. With coal S12 to $4 a ton, and a known supply of
natural gas LOO feet below the street elevation, there
is only one economical way out for the town of Sunburst:
to drill for a gas supply.
This necessity brought about the organization of the
Sunburst Pool, to drill within the city limits of Sunburst.
w. j. OHaire, founder of the town, is selling his own
property, his first addition to Sunburst, in order to raise
money enough to drill a well.
The Adams well, south of town, comes into production,
giving Sunburst every confidence that a well drilled to
the Ellis formation will produce oil in commercial guam
titles; possibly a big well, with the strong pressure of the
Boyce and the oil Of the Adams.

Then the "steerer' would present his friend and
