You will, if you are a prudent person, inquire into the assets or resources, the ‘efficiency, capability and honesty of the management, and the policy and plan to be followed so that you may judge of its chances for ultimate success. WHY NOT USE THIS SAME BRAND OF COMMON SENSE IN YOUR OIL INVESTMENTS. There is no ‘magic’ or ‘witchery’ or guess-work connected with the securing of the pro- duction of oil and consequent big profits. It’s a HARD-HEADED BUSINESS proposition, as much so as any other legitimate business. It takes CHOICE HOLDINGS, an EFFICIENT, CAPABLE, HONEST management and a well DEFINED, DEFINITE policy to achieve SUC- CESS.
