"THE PIONEER. OIL FIELD.
X LMOST OVERNIGHT another boom
Vbil town has sprung into existence.
Pioneer was formerly a sleeping-
country village with a few score fam-
51ies and no particular ambition. Now
It Ir a town of two or three thousand;
tomorrow it will have three or four
thousand people; in a month it will
lie as large as Brownwood from a
population standpoint.
(PJoneer is humming. It is filled
with people many of whom will want
to live somewhere else while the boom
is on and oil development is under
way. It is Brownwood's chance to
profit from the discovery of oil. The
cities which have really benefited from ;
oil discovery were cities located not!
In but near oil fields; close enough
to afford homes and business facilities :
forrthe oil people far enough away to
avoid the muck and the muss of the
'II. field. Brownwood is the logical
dome town and business town for the
Pioneer oil boom. -
But Brownwood must go after the
Bioneer business in order to get it
and that is the reason back of the pro-
posed excursion to Pioneer Thursday.
Brownwood business men need to see
the development there In order "to ap-
preciate the possibilities and Unpeo-
ple iwho are in Pioneer need to see the
Brownwood business men In order to
appreciate their worth. The trade trip
will bring them together and 'both
wjll be benefited. Naturally the -value
of the excursion will be commensurate
. with. the energy and the enthhslasni.
put into iL If there aw hundreds of
Brownwood people and each one is"
brimfulf Brownwood enthusiasm; the
impression created will be a most favorable-one;
and that is the kind of an
. excursion that is being planned. Let
every business man arrange now to
make the trip. It may .be rather fus-
ty the roads may be rough the; day's
work wearying but it will be -worth
all the trouble. Iefs go! I
TheAmerIcan Legion of Texashas
redeemed "Its debt to the State and to
the United Daughters of the Confed-
eracy by paying more than $18000 in
cold cash raised by Legion members
in order that the Integrity of their or-
ganization might be above suspicion.

idcpendable Americans. 11

business organizations are visiting
Pioneer and vying with' each other in
setting forth facts and figures in the
effort tp convinct the Pioneer people
that each respective own is the besi
place in which to trade and transact
business. Ic this respect the business
interests of the new oil jfleld that this
is the logical trade center of the cen-
tral west and is the'logical place in
wiiich to live because oil people can
live at Brownwood and "carry on their
business at Pioneer just as well as if
they lived on the premises. Churches
schools city atmosphere city facili
ties every modern convenience points
to Brownwood. The following item
from the Pioneer paper-shows how the
Cisco folks the Chamber of Com
roerce of Commerce have already been
out after the Pioneer trade:
"A booster trip -with many boosters
and many automobiles with a lot of
literature including the Pioneer Oil
Herald and the. Cisco Daily News a
lot of tin. .horns blowing came down
to the IPioneer oil field on last Tues-
day and they were amazed at the rap-
id growth of the town and of the pi!
field As one gentleman expressed
himself it is astonishing to see the
number of derricks going up and tc
think of the cost that it means to
drill for oH even in this Texas greatest
shallow oil field at about 2450 feet
and it is more wonderful to imagine
where the operators geVall the money
to do these things.
"In taking with theVsecretary Mr
Richardson he wishes )ou behalf of
Cisco .to co-operate as far as possible
and in every manne rthat may be bon-
eficial to the communities of Cross
Plains Rising'Star and Pioneer.
'The Cisco Chamber of Commerce
is doing all it can to have all the 2
principal and shortest roads to each
of the named towns improved and
built up that traffic may make "better
timfe to Cisco as Mr. Richardson
terms it 1b tho greatest gateway to
the Pioneer oil district
It was learned that an effort and
all influence possible is . being brought
to aid im immediately improving the
rbad from Cisco to Rising Star and
to Pioneer especially. It was found
that there was a very good and now
highway almost completed between
Pioneer and Rislrjg Star that may
when completed divert much business
to Star and with a better road tc
Star from CIbco it would afford
quicker; easier and safer traveling
and mean much to Rising Star td
Pioneer Cross Plains and to Cisco.
"Cisco's business men' are not let-
ting amy grass grow under their feet
in competing for the business of the
three towns named and Cisco feels
that they may get the business or else
should the Katy make changes in the
railroad schedule or should Brown-
wood become very active that; if
