Mae Clark plays the leading role. Ultra sophisticated and ‘teeming with unexpected dramatic twists, the picture makes for popular en- tertainment. Smart dialogue, punc- tuated by humorous lines furnishes enough diversion to bring into re- lief the actilon of the plot. It is sithouetted against the colorful background of New York night life.

Announcement! The results obtaining from the development of the large holdings of FOUR X OILS, LTD., operating in the Peace River.0Oil Field, Province of Alberta, Canada, serve to justify the statements of eminent engineers and geologists that this field is the LARGEST, POTENTIAL OIL AREA in the world today. PAST PROSPECT STAGE The several TEST WELLS aiready drilled on the eompany’s property have proven great depths of oil sands capable of producing a good quality of crude oil in immense quantities, and this, at ' SHALLOW DEPTH.

It is believed that the public realizes this fact and that the opportunities offered in Canadian oil production would be eagerly embraced if it were not for the fear of fraud and trickery implanted in the public mind by those un- scrupulous ' swindlers who have utilized the tremendous possibilities of profit offered by legitimate undertakings to dupe the unwary into invest- ment in fly by night companies officered by crooks and irresponsibles, and owning properties of no merit.
