A MILLION DOLLARS AYEAR

repeat itself In this regard. Some day
owners of royalties I'm Kevin-SunbErst
are going to pick up the paper and find
hat deep-sand production has been dis
covered, reviving every property I'm this
vast field. People who have taken for
tunes from shallow production and then
sold out win find that they gave away
greater fortunes than they had dreamed
were possibIe-if THE history of deep
production parallels that of other fields
OF which we know.
People who are getting this million
dollars a year from Montana royalties
are not the exception-nOt ''Iucky'' people.
They are for the most part the ones who
have had enough vision to realize that
royalties are not wild speculation but
sound, long-puII investments. Certain
&c is that few of us realized the possible
ties of acidizatiOn. That is an added
advantage to intelligent royalty investors
in Kevin-Sunburst.
In Kelvin field today we find de-
pressed crude market. We know that
this is not a permanent situation. But
the fact that there is a depressed market
makes ID trebIy advantageous to buy
royalties AT THIS TIME.
"a publication which we issued during
the past week best points out the pos
sibilities. We are buying royalties in
known producing contours FOR LESS
THAN WE PAY FOR ORDINARY WILD
CAT ROYALTIES, MILES FROM PRO-
DUCTTON. No man could go through
the hardship Of kOmesteading this pO-
tentiaI oil land, If he could buy the
mineral rights for the price we are
paying.
We know what the average developed
acre of Kevin-Sunburst has yielded.
From tllat we may Judge what TO expect
from the average acre that Is TO be de-
veIOped i'm the future. There isn't a
person In the world who even suggests
that ALI the oil has been found I'm Kelvin
field. So IL follow that those who buy
royalties today are the ones who viii
be sharing THE million dollars q year Of
royalty dividends of the future.
II there is amy who has not received
our cuzren publication ON Kevin-Sunburst,
he should ask for IL Immediately before
all this royalty is taken up.

The newest ''tall story" that Il
going the rounds in Keyin-Sunbursi
/ field is about a well known supply
man who got lost while hunting
for deer. elk or whatisits on Bic
River in the main range of the
Rockies. This supply man knows
his way around in the Kelvin field
but without some derricks as land
marks he was in pretty bad shape
when he decided to go to camp after
having followed a bull elk into
the mountain Businesses. or wherever
bull elks go.
When he failed to return to
camp the other members of the
party started to hunt the supply
man, but without success. There
isn't much to do when it comes
to hunting a lost hunter. The
general rule is that the lost hunter
should sit down and start playing
soltair, with full knowledge that
someone will come up behind him
and say: Put the jack on your
queen"
But this supply man wasn't that

knew he would have to get some
food so he started chasing squirrels,
a la Tarzan, and he chased squirrels
until he was nearly nutty; not quite
enough to catch a squirrel
Meanwhile the searchers were
about ready to give up. They sat
down to rest when one of them
said:
There is only one way to find
this fellow and that way is to have

Speaking about chagrin, L. R.
Hannah, relates that when he went
to Alaska to inspect his gold mine,
last summer, he had difficulty get
ting a reservation on outgoing boats,
so he took no chances on hotel ac-
comodations and wired ahead for
reservations. Arrived at the 20
room Anchorage hotel he introduced
himself to the sourdough at the
hotel desk and asked did you
make my reservations?
Sure did" said the sourdough,
handing out a ring with a passkey
on it, Go pick out whatever room
you want. There amt a room rent
ed in the house."

quart OF American Gold Label whis-
key. Let's open It up and pass
the bottle from one to the other as
long as It lasts. He's like Bill
Thurston: He never fails to show
up when a drink is being served,
so / know he'll come"
The bottle had gone the rounds
twice when there was a cracking
OF brush and the lost supply man,
walked into the circle and demand
ed: How about a little drink %
The narration ends after the first
bottle for it appears that someone
had another bottle and as a result
they all had to help one another
find camp, and that is another story.

place left vacant by Peters transfer,
but so far his courage had not yet
carried him to the door, let alone in
side. This last time he had waited
until all the others were gone, but 1t
hadn't made any difference.
The boss was talking to some one
in the Office.
st haven't made up my mind yet
about filling Peters place" he was
saying.
How about Peabody" 1t was the
office manager who replied. Hes
had the experience and knows how to
do the work we'll enough, but"
X X II 4
"RuT," the boss interrupted with
- emphasis, the fellows afraid OF
his own shadow. I've thought Of him,
but he's such a doormat I'd be afraid
to trust him with any responsibility
Ellsworth listened for no more.
With a feeling of hopeless resignation
he admitted that the boss. was right.
What was the use? His detection fol-
lowed him onto the Mount Pleasant
street car, and when more aggres-
sive passenger crowded ahead and
slipped into the only empty seat he
didn't even feel disappointed. What
difference did 1t make, anyway?
Then his thoughts sought their
usual channel of escape. He would
slip out into the garden when he got
to his Park avenue home. Some Of the
potatoes needed hoeing and he had
noticed a few weeds getting started
among the beets. That would give
him something to take his mind OF
his troubles.
And then in the evening he would
get out the hose and water the straw
berries. At this thought his load OF
gloom lightened considerably. He had
a fine garden, but the strawberries
were his pride and joy. Yes. the ber-
ries were certainly doing fine and his
surroundings were forgotten as he re-
called how healthy and vigorous they
had looked the night before with the
large punches of blossoms on every
plant.
WITH these pleasant thoughts the
wv time passed quickly enough and
soon he was stepping of at his own
corner and heading home.
He hoped that Janet would be in
a friendly mood tonight and at the
thought his gloom descended again.
Janet was pretty nice girl and they
had gotten along so well at first, but
now he didn't seem to be able to please
her no matter what he did. Then her
mother had left her own home to move
in with them.
On the sidewalk ahead of him stood
q 5-year-old boy making faces at
one of the neighboring women.
Il don't haveto go home for you, you
old fatty" he was saying, and then
stuck out his tongue for emphasis.
With a shock of horror Ellsworth
recognized the little brat as his own
son Junior and hurried forward.

MOORE GALLAGHER e

couraged young man she had found
yesterday afternoon on a bench on
Riverside drive in New York.
Ted and Richard hadn't seen each
other, although Ted had been trans
ferred from the West Coast to An
napolis. The young lieutenant caught
Richards hand in a firm grasp and
beamed on him with q sincerity that
came of long years Of friendship. He
said: Gee, it's swell to see you, Dick!
How's everything over at the labora-
tory? Did you finally complete that
experiment you were slaving on last
Fall?"
Richard smiled. I'm afraid not"
he said. But when I return from
the South Pole I'll get at it again
and see what I can do to give better
life to forgotten millions"
Ted said, with a tone of awe: IT
love the Navy. There was q time
when I thought it was the most TO
mantle career in the world. But
look at these fellows here tonight.
Exploring, researching, stopping
plaques like you, Dick even
running the Government-while I'm
doing nothing better than snooping
around colleges checking up on op-
ponents' foot ball teams. I can tell
you that mingling with the men
grandfather has assembled gives me
an inferiority complex de luxe!
Actually, I feel that I wouldn't look
out Of character in a bib and tucker!"
Richard threw back his dark head
and laughed. Patsy laughed in music.
Richard was still laughing when Tippy
and Virginia Keith joined them.
Tppy was grinning In that con-
tagious way of his and shaking his
sandy head forlornly. He said: II
overheard you, Ted, and how right
you are! Dick could hold his own
around that table, but darned If
can! When Virginia and I sneaked
away just now they were all going
to town on the very neat little sub
ject of meteorology. I had always
thought meteorology had to do with
those clicking boxes in Easements
that tell how much money one owes
each month for the gas and elec-
tricity. But 1t seems I was wrong.
I find that it Is about the phe.
nomena Of atmosphere, especially re-
lating to weather. So"-his grin
widened-"if you'll excuse US, think
I'll show Virginia the gardens"
Ted's eyes, his whole face, glowed
with dull fury. A sudden unreason-
able jealousy lashed hot and quick
in his veins. Tippy, he thought
angrily, didn't know any more about
flowers than he did meteorology . d.
at least, not the botanical species.
With q tortured dark look he
watched the two stroll OF down the
garden walk and disappear out Of
sight beneath . weeping willow.
Vaguely he heard Patsy and Richard

CHAPTER Xxx.
~ ECAUSE it was Indian Sum-
X mer and very warm, Admiral
Warfeld had decided to have
~ his buffet supper In the
garden. Marcia had made old
Ephraim set the table there, and tall.
yellow candles glimmered on golden
chrysanthemums, crystal and silver.
Late Fall flowers, still sturdy and
sweet on their long stems, poured
out a heady fragrance; a giant in
credible moon hung high in the pale,
star-pricked sky. And nearby. down
the Severn, the myriad lights Of the
academy twinkled on the blue glass
of the waters.
1t was a very small party, in honor
of the new superintendent of the
Naval Academy, yet the pick of An
napolis was present; men like Ad-
miral Benson and Comdr Washburn,
the stratospherist, who did worth
while things, and the women who in
spired them; and around that table
all evening would be some of the
most interesting talk in the world.
Patsy, in one of Marcia's dresses,
strolled down the hagstone walk on
Richards arm. Silent music was in
her step and a lovely smile irrad-
lated her face. The deep hurt that
yesterday had brought her had eased
q little now, for she had accomplished
the purpose for which she had re-
turned to Tree Tops.
Richard had just promised her to
get in touch with Lee and to offer
him a place as an aviator on the
Antarctic expedition. That he could
get Admiral Benson's sanction to
this, she had no doubt, for so much
of his money, time and energy had
poured into the venture.
1t had been agreed that Richard
was to have the offer come directly
from Admiral Benson so that he
would not suspect she had played
any part in 1t. She knew Lees fierce
young pride-knew it and loved 1t.
As if by a preconcerted signal Ted
Warfield-a little older now, a lot
thinner-hurried across the smooth
clipped lawn to speak to Richard.
Patsy watched him approaching with
his brass buttons shining and his
eagle bright, and remembered with q
sudden sharp pang, another night
when he had hurried toward her like
this. Only that night a young
lieutenant had followed him-a young
lieutenant with the bluest eyes she
had ever seen and who had made her
feel that she wanted to creep into his
arms and stay there forever.
For one second she closed her eyes
and thought of Lee as she had first
seen him that night. When she
looked up a mist blurred her vision
and her heart was pounding. It
didn't seem possible that the Lee Of

functory kiss from his wife. She
didn't seem to have any other kind
to give any more. Then he picked up
his hoe as he went out through the
shed and with a feeling Of anticipa-
ton stepped out toward the garden.
He stopped with a chill Of dismay.
On the ground were couple Of pans
of water filled with floating masses Of
blossoms. Other wilted punches lay on
the grass beside them. White BIOS
SONS. Strawberry blossoms.
NyITH feeling Of anguish his eyes
w turned to his beloved strawberry
patch. Gone was that fine display Of
bloom that had gladdened his heart
the night before. Only q few small
scattered blossoms remained. There
would be no berries that Summer.
who picked these flowers?" he
asked in a voice he hardly recognized
as his own.
Junior was picking some blossoms
this afternoon, his wife replied. But
I'm sure he wouldn't harm anything" ;"
He stood looking at the now barren
berry patch, If 1t had been anything
else but the Strawberries!
Then his misery gave way to a
surge of anger such as he had never
felt in his life before. Back into the
kitchen he strode.
why, Ellsworth! What's wrong?"
his wife asked him in alarm as she
saw his face.
He didn't answer. Junior had just
come into the kitchen and he grabbed
him firmly by the collar.
What are you doing?" his wife de-
manded.
I'm going to give this young hyena
the thrashing he's been needing" he
snapped back.
Don't you dare!" Janet screamed.
"Will you shut up?" he shouted.
Strangly enough she did.
"You let me go!" Junior was roaring
in anger as he kicked at his fathers
shins.
At THIS moment Janet's mother
= entered the room.
you brute! To talk to any woman
like that! And what are you doing
to that poor child?"
"Is it any of your business?" he ex-
ploded. If you don't like things
around here, you have home of your
own and there's three trains day to
take you there"
The old lady's mouth dropped open
with surprise and she goggled like a
fish who discovers that the worm has
turned into q barbed hook.
Ellsworth dragged the kicking
youngster into the next room,
slammed the door and moment later
Juniors roar Of rage had turned to
yells of pain.
Tomorrow morning, he determined,
he would 60 in and see the boss about
that Job and in his heart he knew
that this time he wouldn't fail.
