B. DETROIT, $765.00 EXIBIT CAR TO ARRIVE MONDAY The Oklahoma Indian land and ex hibit car to now at Freeport, and Is being visited by many people from all walks of life who are filing ap- llcation* foy the large tract of land which is to be sold by the United States government in South eastern Oklahoma this fall. The car arrived in Freeport Friday The car is fitted up with every thing necessary for the instruction of those interested in the manner and method of securing land in Oklahoma soon to be sold by the government. The car contains United States geo logical maps and folios describing every acre of land to be disposed of, making it possible to learn as much concerning these lands as if one were to go there in person. These lands are said to be rich in minerals and are known officially by act of Congress as the \unalloted timberlands. There are fine farming, grazing and timber lands to be sold. The land lies in the great oil belt of the world, as last year the Oklahoma oil fields produced more than one- fourth of the entire world production, or over 122,000,000 barrels of oil. The car contains a great many photographic views of the land, also of the oil fields, and the greatest de velopment of the W est, together with a large display of the products of the soil. The United States government does not require purchasers of the land to live on it or improve the land, and one does not have to go to Okla homa to secure a tract. This can be arranged on the car. Mr. Phil lips states that no taxes are charged until the land is paid for \If the public in general only knew what the government was offering and the possibilities and profit there are in filing for this land and in buy ing a tract, there would not be enough to supply the demand, said Manager Phillips of the Pullman cars, which advertise the land, to- daMr. Phillips further stated that the land now to be disposed of by the governm ent has even greater possi bilities for oil than that which has already been sold. Persons buying the land do not have to live on it or even improve it, and he says that as the land is located near to market towns and railroads, there is bound to be a natural increase in value. One feature of this investment is that in case a person is not satisfied with his purchase he can receive his money back within one year of the time of purchasing, together with 6 per cent, interest. The car will be open from 9 in the m o rning until 9 at night, daily, and will be located on the railroad track at Freeport Station. Thought Some Overlooked. A party of friends was gathered New Year’s day. After the wine had been passed around there were two glasses left on the tray untouched. Just as we were about to drink my brother-in-law said, “Well, folks, here’s to happy days.” H l s j l t t l e daughter, who had been watching the whole per formance, pointed to the glasses on the tray and said, “Daddy, whose hap py days are these?\—Chicago Tribune. - 1 n r Community Effort, Lord Dundreary humorously ques tioned whether any bird would he such a \darned fool ns to go off and flock all by himself,” and Inherently, no sane human being does it. We have been doing things in groups for sev eral hundred thousand years now, and we have been getting better at It all the time. There Is still a long way to go. That is where the preachers of community effort can help. FEARS HE WILL BE CRAZY LEGAL NOTICES. Georgia Man Wants to Find Some Way to Stop Counting Razor Strokes. Moultrie, Ga.—Edgar R Bruton of this city says that he to afraid be to going brazy If he doesn't find some way to stop counting strokes of his razor w h e n h e s h a v e s . If he cannot devise some way to break the habit, he declares, actual madness stares him In the face. Several months ago he decided that he would see how many strokes it took to shave. He counted, shaving In hla usual way, and found that be used too many. Then he set about systemati cally to reduce the number. Counting each time he shaved and eliminating the useless strokes he managed at the end of a few months to cut the daily operation down. But now he has found that he can’t keep from counting.
