The Company The Great Southern Oil Corporation is incorporated under the stringent laws of the State of Texas, the capital being $1,000,000, with shares of stock of a par value of $1-00 eachThe officers of the company are as follow: President — W. B. Young, oil operator of Houston. Texas, with many years actual experience in every branch of the business.

G- Williams, an executive of recognized ability and thoroughly experienced in oil accounting. Over 7000 Rich Acres The holdings of the company consist of • more than 7,000 acres of leases in different sections of the State. Some are proven; others, semi-proven, and others as yet more or less pro.qiective, but all in the trend of development. Iu the famous Mexia Section the company controls two leases of 10 acres each, near the Big Desenbcrg Gusher which sold for 1400,000 The company proposes to drill on one or both of these tracts as soon as possible Altogether, the company has a total of 36 different tracts and it is quite possible that out of this large number of holdings we may be in the midst of the next big strike in Texas which would make quick cash dividends possible.

Operations § The policy of the company is to secure roy- Vf ' ak-y interests in wells drilling in proven terri- ©' tory FIRST- In fact we have already secured a O royalty interest in the II recken ridge field from fi which we have paid THREE CASH DIVIDENDS. Q We plan to secure additional interest so thai we A may be in a position to pay regular dividends A and then we will rely on the sale of stock for Vf money with which to drill on our own account- V For this reason we are now offering 50, COO shares O of stock at Par Value of $1-00 per share which Q will probably be all that we will ever offer the £A general public for reasons which we have already « shown. X Prices and Terms H You may secure stock in this company by Vf either paying ALL CASH with application, or G if you o refer, you can use the easy terms of A payment sending ONE FOURTH CASH with the X application and • then pay the balance in three yf eqqpl monthly payments A limited number of A Liberty Bonds will be accepted at Face Value.

f™Saint-Gaudens' Lincoln, at Chicago

LINCOLN FORESAW 1 POSSIBLE DANGER I t 1 URGED NECESSITY FOR RE8PECT 1 FOR LAW AND ORDER I ~™ ~~ — — < Word* of the Groat Emancipator Eo- < poclally Significant in tho Turmoil of th# World Today. 1 1 In bis first great patriotic speech, now too little known, Abraham Lincoln 1 forecast many of the present day political and social conditions. The theme of this speech was the danger 1 to American institutions that would come from within and the need for a greater respect for law and order. "In the greet Journal of things hap ■ penlng under the sun," said Mr. Llncoin, "we, the American people, find ' our account running the -date of the " Nineteenth century of the Christian • era. We find ourselves In the peaceful ; possession of the fairest portion of. the earth as regards extent of territory, fertility of soil and salubrity of climate. We find ourselves under the . _# .'ne.nm ft# ftftlltlftfll 111-

government of a system of q ' stltuticms conducing more essentially h 1 to the ends of civil and religious ; liberty than any of which the history » of former times tells us. ' "We, when mounting the stage of - existence, found ourselves the legal J Inheritors of these fundamental bles- ; sings. We tolled not In the acquire- < L ment or establishment of them, they I ' are a legacy bequeathed to us by once | ! a hardy, brave, and patriotic, but now | S lamented and departed, race of our jj [ ancestors. Theirs was the task (and «; > nobly they performed It) to possess « » themselves, and through themselves « 5 us, of this goodly land, and to uproar t [ upon Its hills aud its valleys a political « [ edifice of liberty and equal rights; 'tis ; Cours only to transmit these — the j former unprofaned by the foot of an ! L Invader, the latter undecayed by the j f lapse of time and untorn by usurpa- . f tlon — to the latest generation that fate # 3 shall permit the world to know. This j V task of gratitude to our fathers. Jus- j I tlce to ourselves, duty to posterity 1 f and love for our sp-cies !n general all ' > | Imjieratively require us faithfully to a perform.' A "How. then, shall We perform It? At $ J what point shall we expect the ap- ' ? I proach of danger? By what means J ! shall we fortify against It? Shall we K I expert some transatlantic military ' \ \ giant to steji the ocean ami crush us f | at a blow? Never 1 5 ! "All the armies of Europe. Asia, and ^ A j Africa combined', with all the treasure A|«f the earth (our own excepted) In jf their military chest, with a Bonaparte I f for a commander, could not by force A taije a drink from the OKIo or make A a track on the Blue ridge In a trial of Y a thousand years. ? "At what point Is the approach of J danger to be expected? I answer. If A it ever reaches us It must spring up \ amongst us; It cannot come from abroad. If destruction be our lot we 5 must ourselves be Its author and A finisher. As a nation of free men we I must live through all time, or die by ; ■r suicide." £ After giving some examples of the . 5 evil efTects on the Innocent as well as f A the guilty, which occurred In the Cl operation of mob violences, Mr. Lin- j jf coin continued : 3 "I know the American people are A much attached to their government; I (£ know they would suffer much for Its gf sake; I know they would endure evils 5 long and patiently before they would 5 ever think of exchanging It for another EC —yet, notwithstanding all this, if the gf laws be continually " disregarded and despised, if their rights to be secure JA i„ their persons and property are held >A by no better tenure than the caprice tf of a mob. the alienation of their aftec- ^ Hons from the government Is the S natural consequence, and to that FA sooner or later it must come, gf "Here, then, Is one point from which danger must be expected. » T5 "The question recurs, 'How shall we »A fortify against It?* "The answer la simple. Let every K American, every lover of liberty, every well-wisher to his posterity swear by tbe blood of the Revolution never to violate In the least particular the laws

tbe country, and never to tolerats their violation by others. As the patriots of '76 did to the support of tbf Declaration of Independence, and ao t® the support of the Constitution and let every American pledge M» life, his property, and his sacred honor —let every man remember that to violate the law la to trample on the bloo# of his father, and to tear the charter of his own and children's liberty. "Let reverence for the lawa try by every American mother tp the lisping babe that prattle* on hair lap; let It be taught In schools. In seminaries, and In colleges; let It bp written In primers. In spelling books, and In almanacs; let It be preached from the pnlplt. proclaimed In legislative halls, and enforced In courts of Justice. And, In short, let It become the political religion of the nation; and let the old and tbe young, the rich and poor, the grave and the gay ct all sexes and tongues and colors sacrifice unceasingly upon Its altars. •They (the Revolutionary fatberrf) were pillars of the temple of liberty; and now that they have crumbled away that temple must fall unless we, their descendants, supply their places with other pillars, hewn from the solid

of sober reason. Passion htui U6, but can do so no more. It
