In Texas oil there have been countless tvpes of enterprises offered to the investor but never before has there been put to the pub-
lic an OPPORTUNITY so genuinely square and honest as this one. It is not an oil stock offering but a syndicate handled
through a responsible bank whereby your money goes to buy INTERESTS in DRILLING WELLS in the wonderful Stephens
County fields. Never has the world" witnessed such a
Race for Wealth in Stephens County
as is now in progress. Over a thousand wells are pouring a steady stream of oil into the pipe lines and investors are reaping the
dividends. We home-folks have had everything to ourselves until now when outside t-apital clamors for recognition. And the
SQUARESHOOTER OIL SYNDICATE offers you THE OPPORTUNITY FOR WHICH YOU HAVE BEEN WAITING.

supervisor in the Breckenridge district for the Texas State
Railway Commission which has supervision of oil and gas
production and drilling in the State.
This proposal on the part of the Syndicate typifies the
SQUARESHOOTER way of doing things.
4. When oil is struck in any well in which the SQUARE-
SHOOTER has an interest the money derived will be paid
into the Breckenridge State Bank & Trust Company. This
bank will hold it until enough has accumulated for a dividend
then YOU get it.
5. You get an honest four-square run for your money
in the SQUARESHOOTER because your bets are scattered.
Y'ou get a chance for ten big wells in the best pools of the
county; you don't place all vour money on ONE well. Re-
member the SQUARESHOOTER will have ten interests in
ten wells.

THIS year is to be considerably LESS because the dry terri-
tory has been pretty well marked out and determined.
And the same statistics show that the average initial
production of every oil well that came in last year in Stephens
County was over 450 barrels a day.
If the SQUARESHOOTER gets just average wells no
better or no worse than the average the Syndicate net in-
come on the proposed organization would be $150 a day on
the interests contemplated or at the rate of 4500 a month.
