GLENHURST REBUILDING Close|committee and former GIL WORK ONLY ~ STARTED, CLAM {So Says Frank H. Hitchcock, For- mer Postmaster General of United States “I have a feeling that this state has seen only the beginning of its oil development work. I believe it to | be probable that many more oil fields | will be discovered and thoroughly drilled.” In this way Frank H. Hitchcock of 120 Broadway, New York, who visited Casper this week, expressed his en- thusiasm over the fortune-making | possibilities of Wyoming. Mr. Hitch- cock is a leading factor in a number of the biggest oil and mining syndi- cates in the country—syndidates which are now playing an important |role in the work of unearthing Wy- ;oming’s liquid gold. And, incidentally, he is former chairman of the Republican national postmaster general. As if that were not enough, he is generally credited with being the one man who put across Hughes’ nomination in 1916. But he isn’t discussing politics now. However, unlike some politicians who have talked for the press, Mr. | Hitchcock does not claim that he is no longer in politics. He frankly ad- | mits that the game still has a fascin- ; ation for him, and he even went so | far as to give—privately—his opinion of the League of Nations, of Wilson, and of the fight some of the Repub- lican senators are making on the | president and the league. | “But that’s not for publication,” he cautioned after he had finished | giving his views. —_—~»____.- | He Needed a Cuff—The Knut— | “It's simply absurd!

Rebuilding of the Glenhurst rig which was destroyed by fire in the Big Muddy field a week ago has been| started by the company, which hopes to begin work on the hole again next week. The rig burned while the crew was at supper and resulted presum- ably from a gas explosion. The depth of the well at the time of the accident was 9 feet ac-| cording to Manager Whipple. It had reached the depth of approximately | 4,200 feet several weeks ago when of casing while it was being lifted, filled more than 200 feet with debris. | The well continues to gas heavily the collapse of several hundred feet | those who are financia!! size is cuffs.”—Cassell’s Journal. Saturday All but about 110 feet of the steel had been removed at the time of the fire. The Glenhurst company has met with much discouragement in_ its search for oil. It has been hampered at times by financial difficulties, in- competent workmen, accidents of va- rious kinds which caused annoying and extensive delays, but according to the plan now the company will carry out its purpose of thoroly test- ing the property, regardless of the amount of time and money requ i] y interested in it retain their confidence that a pay- ing well will eventually b2 procured. be Casper Daily Cribune TNTAH BANKERS LA0K HLS MINERAL “DRILLING TEST ; Location 20 Miles East of Basin; Genoa Brings in Water Well Near Same Town (Special to The Tribune.)

The Mule Creek Oil Syndicate OWNERS OF 1240 ACRES IN THE HEART OF THE MULE CREEK FIELD. 600 UNITS TO BE ISSUED AT $50 The holdings of the Mule Creek Syndicate are surrounded on all sides by locations and wells now drilling. In all, ten wells are now being drilled in close proximity to the holdings of the MULE CREEK SYNDICATE, and sev- enteen choice locations adjoin the land of the Syndicate. These wells are being drilled by the Ohio, the Midwest, and other responsible companies, all of which have unbounded faith in the future of the field. The MULE CREEK OIL SYNDICATE is capitalized at $75,000.00, which is divided into 1500 units to be sold at $50 each. At this time only 600 of these units will be disposed of, the money derived from this sale to be used for the im- mediate development of the company’s holdings. <= howe A thorough investigation of the Syndicate and its holdings will convince investors of the merit of the company and the advisability of an immediate investment in the units. Every requirement of the so-called “Blue Sky” law of the State of Wyoming has been complied with, and the plans and purposes of the Syndicate will bear the closest inspection, which is invited at all times. We advise the immediate purchase of one or more of the units of the Syndicate, and believe that rich returns await in- vestors who are willing to take a chance with us.

From his obscure place in the royal box a little boy in a miniature uni- form of an American officer leaped forward, dignity forgotten, and, with an impulsive cry of ‘Oh, dad!’ threw himself into the arms of his big sol- dier father.
