Same fine: Coach
at a NEW RED ICED PRICE

INCREASED volume of sales-founded on
L Studebaker's policies of one-proft manu-
facture, and no yearly modes-nade it pos
sible to reduce the price of this Standard Six
Coach. t..-.
Already . wonderful Values leader Of the
ine-the lowest priced closed ever sold by
Studebaker-its previous low price has been
cut one hundred dollars
Many of the superiorties of this one-proht
Coach are hidden until revealed by thousands
of miles of usage. You can't see the fine
workmanship inside the engine, nor behind
the durable wool upholstery-the high-grade
steel - the finest northern white ash and
hard maple But here some things that
you can check against competitive cars to
satisfy yourself that this is Studebaker of
the same fine quality as before the price cut
a Studebaker more up to date than the newest
yearly models.
EXCESS POWER-According to rating
of National Automobile Chamber of Com
merce this is the most powerful car of its
size and weight

OUR BOYS

Our boys have left for Moscow
And there the bacon to win.
They'll win it you bet, we know they
will
For they never have yet gone in
Adrian, the little tow-head,
He's mighty quick on his feet
But black-headed, Frenchman Joe;
For guarding he can't be beat.
Merle Is tall and a mighty man
He is big from head to hoof
But believe me, that ball never got
by
Unless it goes through the roof.
And we must say Roy is mighty
fast,
He even beats the ball.
Louis and Lloyd get some credit
If they're all alone in the hall
And last comes Jesse with lightning
speed
The ball for the racket aimed.
Yes, boys, he's far from least
Hurrah. We've won the game.

MAKES CHARTS OF DE-
CLINE OF KEVIN WELLS

Interesting to the operators in
the Kevin field are production
curve charts of producing wells,
prepared by Fred G. Platt of the
Northern Oil. Information Bu-
reau. Charts have been made
showing the rate of decline of
production Of both Ellis sand and
Sunburst sand wells.
Zone interesting point in all
of the production figures that
have been or will be given is that
not one lease in the entire field
has been completely drilled up
he comments. This naturally
means a large amount of work
to be done in the field in the fu-
ture, and also that the potential
production of the field has only
been touched. 1t is impossible to
estimate this potential produc-
tion because Of the spotted con-
dition of production from the
Ellis sand, where large wells oft
en- offset comparatively m a |

EWING AND BENJAMIN BUY
COBB-ROBERTS STORE STOCK

Shelby, Jan. PA deal was com
pleted Tuesday whereby Jas. B. Ew-
ing and H. E. Benjamin took over the
Cobb Roberts grocery and meat store
which for the past two years has
been managed by Geo. Fem. The
management of the business will
be conducted by Mr.. Ewing who is
we'll known to nearly all Shelby people
he having been a resident of Dunkirk
for the past fifteen years, the last
ten of which he has conducted a gen.
eral store which was destroyed by
fire last fall. He is an aggressive
and very capable business man and
without doubt will be an important
factor in Shelby business life in the
future. The meat department of the
store is to be restored and will be
under the very capable management
of Nick Henkel.
The genial Nick needs no introduc-
ton to Shelby people, having been
connected with markets here for the
past three years. The store will be
completely re-stocbed and every eff
fort made to keep it strictly up to
date.

MACHINES MUST GO

Shelby, Jan. 27.-Sheriff Thos.
Daley has informed The Promoter that
the law against the use of slot mach
ines viii be strictly enforced, and
that all machines now being operated
in Toole county must positively be re-
moved by February l. The sheriff
believes that because slot machines
have been running for so long, it is
only fair to give a few days notice
of his intention to stop their opera
ton.
Any slot machines in operation af
ter February will be confiscated, and
the owners arrested and dealt with ac-
cording to law, says Mr.. Daley, if
this order is not complied with.
The sheriff also stated that all
other forms of gambling must be
stopped, and he will expect this or
der to be promptly complied with.

ADAMS MUST DRILL
SEVEN WELLS PRONTO

Winter drilling this year has
been expensive business, accord
ing to leading Independents op-
Grating in the Kevin field. j. H.
Adams of the Adams Company,
Inc, states that his company
would have been $4,000 ahead
had all drilling operations been
suspended when bad weather
started. Snow and long water
hauls have been the principal
factors which ran operating costs
into red ink.
However, we have a very
heavy drilling program for the
coming year." says Mr.. Adams
There are at the present time
seven wells that we know of
that we must drill, and we were
very anxious to complete the
wells we were drilling before
spring, SO we could get as early
a start as possible on the other
wells. oil Journal.

JOHNSON-KAVANAGH
NUPTTALS WEDNESDAY

The following article taken from the
Shelby Promoter of last week will be
of much interest, as the contracting
parties are we'll and favorably known
in the Kevin territory. The bride
is especially well known by
the Review family, having
known her since her childhood days,
and for the past year or so has been
engaged as one of the leading teachers
Of the Shelby schools. The
groom is the youngest son of Mayor
and Mrs. Jas. A. Johnson of Shelby
and is well known among Kevin people
as he has made his home here mostly
during the past few months, and we
hasten to offer congratulations.
"A pretty wedding took place yes
terday afternoon at the home of Mr.
and Mrs. ]. F. Kavanagh, when their
daughter, Miss Marjorie, became the
bride of James w. johnson.
The ceremony was performed by the
Rev. E. P. Wilson, Presbyterian min
lister of Cut Bank, and the beautiful
ring service was used. Miss Ruth
Evans, at the pjaF5, played the open
ing strains of the wedding march as
the bride and bridesmaid descended
the stairs and proceeded to a spot at
the head of the living room where
the groom, the best man and the min
lister awaited them. Miss Katherine
Kohnen attended the bride, while w.
C. Kavanagh supported the groom.
The house was beautifully decorated
with flowers, the bride carried a bou-
quet of American Beauty roses, while
the bridesmaid wore a handsome cor
sage. After the ceremony and the
attendant congratulations, a tasty
lunch was served to the assembled
company, all close relatives of the
newlyweds.
The bride has made her home in
Shelby for the past two years, part
of the time having been teacher in
the public schools. Previously she
had resided at Minot, N. Oak, where
she was a graduate from the high
school, and later attended the Univer-
sites of North Dakota and Mime
sofa. She is a past president of the
Delta Gamma sorority, accomplished
and popular. In 1923 she was chosen
as Toole county princess and repre-
sented this community at the state
fair
The groom is the eldest son of Mr..
and Mrs. James A., Johnson, and a
native of this city. He is one of the
popular young men of the community,
and one of the rising business men as
well, being an active member of the
firm of James A. johnson r." Com
pany. Lately he has been ac fely en-
gagged in the oil business and e'gparin-
tended the drilling of the johnson
Corey gusher.
The happy couple left on the Or
iental Limited fory Seattle, Portland,
San Francisco and Mexican points,
where they will spend the next month.
They will be at home to their friends
inyShelby after March L."
