AGED SETTLER
RECALLS RAIDS
OF 30 YEARS AGO
$60ting of Florence Farmer
' Brings Report That Ter
ritory Has Been Con
stantly Robbed.
The shooting: of Joseph Hipp,
; Florence farmer, by an unidentified
man who was stealing fruit from the
"Hipp orchard, calls to the mind of
v Henry Ransom, an old settler living
; up along the river bluffs on the Cal
, houn road, the fact that for a quar
ter of a century fruit, garden truck
.,' and chicken thieves have invaded
northern Douglas and southern
, Washington counties.
.' Last week Ransom was at the
rooms of the Douglas county pio
,. reers and there he related some of
his experiences with the thieves
Among his tales was one about
catching boys in steel traps. Said
he:
" ."Some 25 years ago and perhaps
it was 30, one fall I was bothered
with animals that invaded my garden
and stole my sweet corn. I never
. knew what they were, but they
, broke down the stalks and ate the
corn, off the cobs. I had a lot of
small steel traps and concluded that
a would catch the varmmts, or at
Jeast try.
'i ' "Planted in iiin r.
. corn were musk melons and they
were fine ones. At the time that
I am talking about the melons
were ripe. Well to make a long
tory short, one afternoon I set half
a dozenx or so traps out in the
weet corn patch and staked them
down and then waited results. Along
about midnight I heard the most
Unearthly screams, and hurrying
i outdoors without stopping to dress
; ran to the sweet corn patch. And
: what do you suppose I found?
"There in two of the traps I had
'caught two boys. Each boy had a
; hand in a trap and each boy was
begging to be released. I thought
it was punishment enough and so
with , good, fatherly advice I let
them return to their homes in Flor
ence. i "These two hoys had located 'my
melons and had come out to sample
them, and in pawing around had
been caught in the traps. However,
that did not end the stealing of the
sweet corn. It kept on disappear-
' ing and I never got a tip on the
real thief." ,
Pretty Girl Students
at U. of C Must Cut
i Powder and Lip Sticks
i Chicago. Life for the pretty girl
" atudents at the University of Chi-
cago high school is getting to "just
J one self-denial after another," to
V ouote one of the prettiest sufferers.
S s The last and some say the most
! drastic would abolish the powder
i!'uifP rouge and the eyebrow pencil,
i "Why, all the girls use these little
1; first aids to beauty," the incog in
formant declared, "use them daily
with telling, though not exactly vis
' ibly.
."The idea is all wrong. It does no
i harm to dab a little powder on the
end of your nose, touch up your lips
and checks a bit of emphasize, just
a trifle, the eyebrows. And what's
V more, these little stunts will improve
a girl's looks no matter how good
looking she is to start with.
. "Then look at the next 'don't' on
V this list they just circulated."
It reads: "We would recommend
that students carry orily enough
money for the legitimate expenses of
each day."
; "Wonder what they call legiti
mate? I am sure ice cream, candy
; and an occasionaly movie should
' come under that head."
The trouble is the girls do not
know who to go to fdY an interpre
: tation of the word "legitimate."
Principal George L. Harris said
the protest against "conspicuous and
inappropriate dress, rouging and the
; use of powder" and the curtailment
of expense money originated with
the Parents' Association of the Uni
versity High School.
"If that's so, what's the use of
"protesting," said the pretty inform
' ant as she dabed her nose with the
, ! powder puff and started for a movie.

the man who designs Queen Mary's
bonnets would look like a stray
that'd wintered hard alongside this
ring-tailed snorter. He's got me
plumb scared to death, and I've seen
a few bad men out Wyoming way
in my time.
This bad hombre wears a red
coat that looks like it might have
been cut from a government issue
blanket upon the Crow reservation;
and knee pants, Bill, which're pierc
ing blue; to say nothing about the
white silk stockings below those
pants. Also he's got a gold cord
hung over his vest with a whistle on
the end of it hitched up alongside
his left shoulder, where he can find
it handylike to blow if he wants to
call his gang' in case of a knock-down-and-drag-out.
His face is of
the old rock-bound pattern, like one
of these pictures of the early Puri

Let me give you the whole plans
and specifications of this institution:
No One Cared a Whoop.
"Mister Blawum-Bla-Bla," says
he, like he was announcing a foot-
racer down at the Casper lair and
I edge into the main room, all pink
around the gills. But nobody's tak
ing any notice. I don t count for

Why, I say to myself, why the big
bawl-out, just as if I was master
of. the king's hound dogs or some
thing. royal like that? But soon 1m

the bars gets the same brand iron
put onto him. And everybody who's
already through just goes right on
talking through his adenoids and
don't give a whoop-hoorah for the
Bad Man s little game.
"Well, that's where he gets off," I
murmur to myself, feeling all riled
up against him for making me con-
nicuous to myself. But, bill, 1

that bally-hoo bird was through with

tween the second and third button
of my vest when there comes a
bellow from topside, where the
speakers' table is. The Lone Wolf
was sure having his howl.

grand staircase toward the feed cor

Bad Man of Hell Hole, flaming like
a barn afire in that red coat. I
start to shy past, but he puts out
his hand.
"Nem, please," he roars. Of
course I don't get him right away,
and I reckon he wants to see my

"Nem, please," says he, looking
very threatening, and on a chance
I whisper what my sponsors in
baptism pinned on me in my early

out:

he wasn't.
You know what a toastmaster's
supposed to he at one of these for
mal feeds like the Buffalo Cham
ber of Commerce gives twice a year
in the Sunday school rooms of the
M. E. church. He's supposed to
be trail boss and run the outfit,
rope and hobble any loco steer that
runs wild and sort of sauce up the
beans and sweet pickles with fancy
words.
But did the toastmastcr at this
show do that? He sure didn't.
Every time this poor pinto began
to get restless and show signs of

"Mister Chairman, my Lord May

I paid for it on the nail, I riz up

George himself had been there he'd
been afraid to give old Badwater
Ben any back talk. - "
Ihey tell me, Bui, these wise
hombres, who've lived in London a
long time, that 'this official bad
man's a sort of a hold-over handed
down ' from old times, when they
had to have a strong-arm handy to
give the bum's rush to any diner
who had the bad manners to pull
a dirk on the bird feeding next to
him. But I rise to remark here and
now that, as an institution, he
doesn't add none to a man's- appe
tite. Institutions, Bill that's Merry
England.
Take the portcullis, for instance.
I'll lay five to one, Bill, you never
saw a portcullis, and probably
you've breezed along through life
more or less happy, though plumb
ignorant of portcullises. Well, Bill,
a portcullis is an institution, and
there's one hero which mighty nigh
got me into trouble.
Breezed down to the Tower of
London one day with another
American, and this lop-eared coy
ote was so bubbling over with hard
liquor that if you'd hit him he'd uv
rung like a firebelt. We wandered
through Beauchamp (pronounced
"Bechum") Tower and the White
Tower, where George keeps all his
family jewels and knjeknacks and a
lot of plunder he inherited from
kings now in the discard. Finally
we came to the tower where the
little princes were murdered, which
was some time back before Wyom
ing became a state, Bill A corn
fed muley, who was dressed up like
the Jack of Hearts, was showing
us around.
"An" 'ere, gentmun,M he says, "is
the famous portcullis of the Wohsis
Tower, which 'asn't been lowered
since Bloody Mary pu her hair up
and started wearing corsets," or
words to that effect.
He was pointing at the time to
the top part of the dog-gondest
heaviest corral gate you ever saw:
made of oak so old it was black
and studded with bolts thick as your
wrist; about 12 feet across, I figured
and like to weigh about '.hree tons,
Some gatel Even if we could only
see the top part, the rest hanging
through the floor over the arch be
low the tower.
"One touch on this lever." Jack
of Hearts was saying, "an' this stu-
pendjdous portcullis drops to bar
the enemies of 'Is Majesty."
"How long dju say since some
body gave somebody else the gate?"
whinnies my friend the Stewed
Prune.
"Four hundred and fifty-two
years, sir, thenk you sir," Jack comes
back at him.
"And that's the lever that drops
her?" this American Pickled Onion
whiffles through his nose.
"Quite," says the picture post
card, meaning "Yep."
"Well, Bill, this bird I'm teamed
up with takes me aside.
"Take our li'l friend out on Sir
Walter Raleigh's Walk and show
mm tne pretty pigeons, , he says:
ten mm me story ot your lite any
thing to keep him interested. 1 m
going to port a portcullis. tit's been
up too long."
Bill, I never had such a close
squeak from large troubles. I al
most had to throw and hog-tie that
Comanche to get him away from
that porticullis. Whfr, say, if he'd
dropped that old corral gate it would
have been coffee and bullets at sun
rise for us both. Yours trulv.

Make Your Money Earn
Money
The man who tells you it is unwise to nut
money in a savings bank to earn only 4 per cent
is dead wrong AND HE KNOWS IT TOO. It
is the safest place in the world to put your
money because you know where it is and can
get it at any time. 'Nevertheless a man should
speculate with some part of his savings or earn
ings and he must do this if he wants to make
greater profits and more money with his money.
A man with a hundred thousand to a million
dollars can afford to invest in four or five ner
cent interest bearing stocks and bond there is
scarcely any risk in that plan, although they
may decline in market value. He ia satisfied
with the income derived and usually doesn't
have to worry very much but he certainly
didn't make his pile by savins: small turns.
which only earned small rates of interest.
The Men Behind This

Yon are invited to "look no" this Company

it a big success.

AH the oil enterprises that are today pouring forth such vast
riches were at the start speculative. This is speculative. If this
were not speculative if oil were actually spouting from wells
on this property today you wouldn't have this opportunity
your money wouldn't be needed or accepted.
It has been proven, many times, where one has lost a few
dollars in one of these speculations that same person invested in
another that made thousands.-
-Our chances for a big strike are as good as any and better
than most. We all expect to strike it rich here. While there is
every reason to believe your investment will yield enoromus
profits, we do not make any specific promises or guarantee to
that effect, except we do guarantee every stockholder a good
clean run for his money.
The men back of this enterprise are perfectly frank with
you not only because of the moral consideration, but because
they believe it pays. Already the wisdom of this course has been
amply demonstrated.

Texas Oil area and the properties of the Buffalo-Texas Oil Company. com.
mon law company that does business through a Board of Trustees elected by
the shareholders. You will note by the aquare black blocks that we are lo
cated in known oil bearinst centers It s not acres you want but "locations."
Property A Fisher County 817 acres northeast of Boby. Our leases
here are well within the area of new test wells and a gusher here would mean
thousands perhaps millions to our stockholders. -
Property "B" Wilbarger County 140 acres in three leases, one of 80 aeres
and two 30 acres each. Many experienced oil men and eminent geologists be
lieve that the oil sands here are directly eonncted with the immense produc
ing sands of the wonderful Burkburnett and North West Burkburnett Exten
sion pool districts, and predict that this is a continuation of one or both of
these pools with enormous production.
Property "C" Where Wa Are Now Drilling 25 aeres in Wichita County
south of the town of Electra 700 feet from Good wells. The world now knows
of this county as being one of the Giant producing counties in which is situat
ed the Burkburnett original development. Everybody interested in oil knows
this district to be a phenomenal producer. Will you be one of those who will
have a real interest in the way of money returns?
Note You probably know the close proximity of these properties to the
various locations where other wells are now drilling and many spouting oil
where hundreds of wells have been brought in including Gushers shooting up
thousands of barrels a day (See press reports here quoted You probably are
hearing of these big giants that go over the derricks frequently now).
