ParaphFaStng the a0age, "A rose Dy any
other name would smell as sweet" a
royalty by and other name would work
the same, but rose is a rose and
royalty is a royalty and while a hybrid
may smell as sweet, IL may turn out 70
be something else.
There is but one true ROYALTY.
That is the inherent right OF kings, passed
on to American citizens who are sup
posed to be sovreigns each of his own
homestead. The American hOmesteader
has LANDOWNERS ROYALTY. That Is
a perpetual right to receive a certain
share of all the oil and gas produced
and saved.
Owing to the popularity of royalties
as an investment in the last decade. there
have been numerous hybrids that have
been called royalties. We have regretted
that il was not possible to copyright the
word, royalty TO prevent infringement.
Since this is impossible, it is entirely up
to the investor to be well enough inforln-
ed so that he will know a true royalty
when he sees it. If it has any strings
attached, it is not a true royalty.
There are
OVERRIDING ROYALTIES.
OPERATORS OR LEAsEHOLD
ROYALTIES.
STATE LEASE OVERRIDING
ROYALTIES.
GOVERNMENT PERMIT AND
LEASE OVERRIDING ROYALTIES.
There are a half dozen varieties of roy
allies. but the above are the most common
and they all have merit, despite the fact
that they are not LANDOWNERS ROY
ALTTES.
The landowners share is delivered TO
him FREE OF COST OF PRODUCTION
no matter how or when the oil is pro-
a fSssro fxy
good as long as the American government
stands
In Texas they sell sO-caIled royalties
which are good for a limited time: 10
years or 20 years. Those were NOT roy
aIties. They were merely peculiar con-
tracts whereby the owner sold to another
person his right to receive certain share
of his oil for a given length of time, III is
a contract and nothing more and should
not be called royalty.
When the investor takes any other
than perpetual decided royalty, he must
know that he is gambling with an En-
PIRATTON of his rights.
The landowner has right to receive
12K barrels out OF every 100 barrels
produced. That leaves S71k9 20 for the
operator who must pay all costs out OF
his share. Amy royalty issued out of the
SIN % is called OVERRIDING ROYALTY.
That royalty comes about Fn this
manner:
MIR. Jones takes a lease from MIR.
smith Smith retains the 12M 20 and
Jones gets SIN %. Jones then interests
the x company In the lease. The
Company win not pay Jones any cash
for the lease but asks him to gamble on
it, by taking a 2h 20 royalty. So Jones
assigns to the Company $50 of the
oil, specifically reserving 21k@o of the
oil, to be delivered to him free of cost
of production, like the landowners
royalty:
Jones is entitled to assign his 2 " 20
royalty, or any part of it, but the as
signment must say 'Over-riding royalty"
If X Company drills a well, the Jones
lease is validated and continues in Ell
feet sas long as oil and gas are pro-
duced in commercial quantities. From
the viewpoint of the investor, this is
long enough, although it is not impOs-
sible that the farm may be produced
from upper sands and the lease abandon

II have a simple plan" said Perry.
Il know how to do it." He realized
now that he was going to have to hit
Burke. His boast had ceased to be a
Joke. He had ridden it too hard.
He wasn't hungry. But he ate a
good lunch. He couldn't let the others
see how scared he was. Besides, he
knew it might be the last meal he
would ever eat. Burke had killed a
man in the ring, tougher man than
Perry.

me to do"
Phyllis gave him a stricken look.
They reached the gates OF Burke's
training camp and bought tickets
and went in. There were rough
tiers of planks on which to sit. The
place was scarcely half full; it was
still half an hour before Burke was due

"What you said about my doing

THIS WEEK
He Hit the Prizefighter
THIS WEEK
Confinved from pogs nine

eyes rolling like those of stricken
doe. They led him up the aisle, past
Perry Phelps, and another sparring
partner took his place in the ring.
The second man was broader than
Burke, with a hairy chest. His nose
had been fattened so many times it
had three separate curves in it. His
eyebrows were network of scars.
He had tight curling cauliflower ears.
Burke reversed his tactics. He
began to use a straight left while his
opponent bored in, as if anxious to get
his great arms around Burke's body.
Burke popped him almost at will on
his right ear or his right eye. But the
hairy chested one merely shook his
head and bored in. Burke staggered
him toward the end of the round with
a right to the cheek. Perry Phelps
knew the punch would have put the
tough man down if it had landed three
inches lower. He was suddenly aware
that his own fists were clenched. He
was sweating.
Burke had caught his husky spar
ring partner with one-two. The man
shot backwards half way across the
ring and landed in heap. Burke
waited for him to get up. He couldn't
get up. They dragged him out, re-
vived him and led him up the aisle.
The third man was much lighter
and faster than the others. He man
aged to keep away from Burke until
the very last ten seconds of the second
round. Then Burke caught him with
a left hook and he went down while
the crowd cheered.
Burke did not wait for them to pick
the man up. He tore off his headguard
and started up the aisle. Perry Phelps
timed it perfectly. He got up. He had
his back turned as if he were saying
something to somebody down the row
of seats. Burke bumped into him hard.
Perry Phelps whirled.
''You clumsy fool" he roared and
aimed a punch at Burke's face with
all his strength.
Burke inclined his head automat-
ically and Perry's fist went whistling
by his ear. Perry was so astonished
that for a fraction of a second he did
not know what to do. For fraction of
a second his eyes glared into Burke's
at distance of six inches. Then Perry
swung again. and his fist landed with
a satisfying thnnk on Burke's nose.
Perry felt sudden shock. as if he had
been driving a car and hit telephone
pole. But he was still on his feet and
unhurt. Burke had merely pushed him
away. The next moment he was in the
middle of a riot. The crowd pushed
and showed and yelled.
But no one in that crowd nor all of
them together could yell as loud as
Icy Mandelbaum. His face red, his
hands waving. Izzy Mandelbaum
yelled them down, stopped the riot.
and led Burke away.
'Oh Perry Phyllis said. Perry.

look unconcerned. but it was hard moi

Phyllis sat beside Perry Phelps. She
put her hand on his arm and pressed
it gently but said nothing.
Perry looked out across the ring at
the trees beyond. 1t was one of those
days that come when summer is at the
full, too hot there in the sun if it had
not been for a tiny breeze. cool and
sweet. The stands were full when
Burke and his followers came down
the aisle and climbed into the ring.
Icy Mandelbaum stood in the
middle of the ring and raised his right
hand high.
Ladies and gentlemen" he bawled.
Il have an extraordinary announce
ment to make. Gunner Burke is fit
and ready to 60. Some of the sports
writers have got the erroneous notion
that he amt what he used to be. Some
of the fans have been trying to tell
you he has lost his punch.
Ladies and gentlemen, we are
going to show you today where these
guys get off. We are going to take off
the wraps ard turn the big boy loose.
For this one occasion we are going to
let you see what he is like. After today
you will have to wait for the fight.
But today you are going to get your
moneys worth twice, three and four
times over.
Ladies and gentlemen, the big boy

Premiere This
Evening

The most international and
cosmopolitan audience ever to
attend the premiere showing Of
a motion picture will be present
at the Earle Theater tonight at
Ills o'clock when Anthony
Adverse" is presented for the
first time in Washington.
The Official Foreign Delegates
to the Third World Power Con-
ference, now holding its sessions
here, will be the guests at this
special advance showing Of the
Iong-awaited screen version of
the famous Hervey Allen novel.
Representatives of more than 40
countries will be seated in the
loges and boxes of the Earle.
The international flavor to this
premiere is considered especially
fitting, since Anthony Adverse
was by nature a cosmopolite and
is seen on the screen in such far
flung countries as Italy, France,
Africa and Cuba.
In addition to the delegates,
diplomatic representatives of the
various countries associated With
the book have been invited.
