The girls of that famous musical comedy chorus have been in the lime- lusht so long—there were thousands, if the claims of all are accepted—that their former partners have decided ‘té attract @-little attention to themselves. Nobody ever heard of a reunion of chorus men before, so the sextette: will have accomplished something startling in theatrical circles by mere: ly getting together. “We don't know yet just what we'll do at the reunion, but whatever it is it will be original,” Scott Welsh, who is pramoting the event, told the United Press today. “Unlike the girl members of the original sextette, who apparently are as numercus as the people who came over inthe May¥lower, there are only six of us. So the reunion won't be difficult: to plan."

The conservative in a PROVEN FIELD, and the only PROVEN FIELD in of Fergus county, as mapped below. THERE ARE TWENTY-FIVE WELLS PRODUCING OIL IN CAT CREEK TODAY AND EVERY ONE JIS IN THE AREA ENCLOSED BY THE THREE SIDJiS OF THE TRIANGLE BELOW. Each of the squares in this triangle represents 160 acres of land and measures 2640 feet on each side. Hence the actual amount of proven oil land in the entire field does not exceed nine or ten square miles at the present writing. Dozens of wells are being drilled on several other very promising structures, but as yet those areas must be:classed as “wildcat.” Investments in the units of Twenty-Five Producers in a Row 5 The dozen or more syndicates which have made money for investors in Montana oil have their leases in the Cat Creek field and, up to date, not one dollar has been lost which has been invested in this area. ‘56” Petroleum Units, now quoted at $15,000 each, Black- burn at $3,500, Hover-Schwartz at $1,250, MacDonald at $200, Baker at $200, Bullseye at $125 and a half dozen others, all have their holdings in this triangle. Further, no company or syndicate with holdings outside of this area has as yet made one penny for investors. What they do in the future remains to be seen. Hence, The CAT CREEK CENTER SYNDICATE has adopted the “Breckenridge plan,” the safest, soundest and fairest method ever devised for the absolute pro- tection of the investor. The leases of this syndicate, comprising one hundred and twenty acres in the proven Cat Creek field, have been deeded to the LEWISTOWN STATE BANK of Lewistown, Montana, as trustee for Une unitholders. Thus, every payment for syndicate oil from any of the three leases must be made to this bank. The bank has signed a trust agreegy , the terms of which ‘provide that all funds recei for oill will be distributed promptly on the first of each month pro rata among the unitholders.

THE HARTFORD ACCIDENT & INDWM- NITY COMPANY has issued a surety bond in favor of the unitholders covering all funds entrusted to the treas- urer of the CAT CREEK CENTER SYNDICAT# and this bond will be increased, if occasion arises, so that it will at all times be 25 per cent in excess of the funds on hand.

It is highly probable that about six contracts will be let on this basis. As every unit shares equally in every well drilled on each of the threo leases it is possible for the first three wells, if only average Cat Creek field size, to give each unit a value on the open market of $5,000 or more.
