RESOLVE--Then do something

At New Years we RESOLVE, usually
because things haven't gone as well dur
ing the past year as we would like No
successful business man resolves to give
up. Instead he resolves to go more
vigorously toward chosen objective and
RESOLVE to succeed.
Resolutions should be based upon good
fundamentals. Each man must live his
own life, but it is good to know the
maxims of successful men such as John
ID. Rockefeller. Starting as poor boy.
the son Of poor parents, he became the
worlds richest man through sound fun
damentals, rather than through luck.
Here are his three principal fundamentals:
1 believe il is a duty for a man. to
get all the money he honestly can
and to give all he can.
Live within your means. One of
the swiftest tOboggans 1 know of is
for a young just starting in
life to get into debt.
There is no feeling in this world
TO be compared with self-reliance-
do not sacrifice that to anything else.
Starting out as a newsbOy, John ID.
Rockefeller pledged himself to these prin-
cipIes and steadfastLy stuck to them.
They are so simple that any one could
Woil auOpC CneA1.
Thrift is the cornerstone of all success
There are some people who "ltve weIis
who always spend little more than they
receive. They are doomed eventually,
to failure. The man who determines to
SAVE some part OF whatever money he
receives is the one who succeeds In great
est measure. That was true of John ID.
Rockefeller, we are told. When he was
employed as a clerk, with wages that
were really not enough to support him,
he starved a bit-Or did whatever it re-
auired--and set aside few dollars IN
ORDER THAT HE MIGHT NOT ALWAYS
BE A CLERK. We and everyone else
admire that spirit.
The members of this organization who
have only little money to invest are
likely to get our special attention. rather
than the large investor, for we glory
in the fight of a man of modest means
to get ahead. If a man saves only $40 or
$40 a month, he MUST put 1t to work
for him in UNUSUAL service. Ordinary
service will get him nowhere. In other
words, he must choose investments that
will earn more than interest.
When a man tells us that ne Is anxious
to invest his money, saying he hasn't
much TO invest, yet can't afford TO lose
It. we think 1T over very carefully before
We submit a royalty property to him. III
we knew a place where he could BETTER
invest his money-with a chance for ade-
quate rturns 20 do him some good, we
would suggest 1t. Certainly we would
not advise him TO put his money ON
roulette wheel, even thought Il MIGHT pay
him 35 to 4. Nor could we advise him

that the State of Montana owns
Al 300 acres of land which 1t has
leased to operators for development
retaining 121596 landowners roy
atty to the State. The $50 acres
in Sec. 36-352W and 48O acres In
Sec. 25-35-2W and Sec. 30-S5-1W,
on which there has been consider

to invest it in simOn-sure sercurity such as
lOw-interest bonds because it would do
him no good He MUST have an invest
ment that has speculative possibilities of
bringing him a return of many times his
investment, yet he must not take too great
a risk of loss. The wildcat well, miles
from production, offers the greatest odds
in the event of a winning. The prOduc-
ing royalty, with pretty well established
reserves, is the surest investment.
Tt follows that a man who goes into
royalties TO insure himself of a large
profit and protection from loss must
buy more than one royalty. He must
balance his investments between proper
ties which may be not so sure but offer
large speculative odds.
We did not send out Christmas cards
this week. Instead, we sent every active
member two maps, one of Kevin-Sunburst
and one of Cut Bank This was
"S.P.U.G." gift-if any of our readers
are old enough TO remember that alpha
beticaI antecedent of the New Deal. In
checking over the list of members we
had the greatest pleasure of the Christmas
season. Checking over them, one by one,
we glanced at the cards 90 see chow
they were coming along" We find one
month; another with an income OF $3.50
per month; another with $50 per month,
another with $3.50 per month-and so
on through the list, including many who
are receiving mere interest of from five
TO 25 per cent ON their investments.
As we went through these cards we
shifted out the unsatisfactory accounts
the ones whose rate of return is not
high as we would like We win put them
on a special list to receive a certain
type of royalties that will build up their
income.
There are some among them whO oddly
enough, have several hundred dollars i'm
vested but have no income at all. These
are people who have insisted on GAAfB-
LING. They have bought wildcat royal
ties in every case, choosing the possible
odds of 100 to 1, rather than taking
smaller odds with more certainty. We
figure that the chances are five to one
AGAINST this type of investment here
in Montana and while an occasional Wild
cat royalty mixed in with others is to
be desired, the plan of buying ONLY
the highly speculative properties is some
thing we resolve to discourage during
this coming year.
We figure, also that one GOOD roy
atty will pay for several IOw-price Wild
cat royalties, so 1t seems ridiculous to
us that an investor should not ENSURE"
his outside royalties by buying a pro-
perty in the proven area of Cut Bank
or Kevin-Sunburst.

are highly pleased. 1t was not as highly
