SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT
It has been brought to our attention that it is the
opinion of some that we are endorsing "wildcat" schemes
owing to the fact that we had placed on our map which we
have printed on our literature, the names of places not in
existence except in the imaginations of the promoters. We
did this to save answering inquiries as to the location of
said places. We may say, however, that we do not
recommend or endorse any scheme which by misleading or
exaggerated advertising seeks to obtain the money

sold, nor do we wish to sell any lots or property in anyplace
or townsite that cannot bear the closest investigation, and up
to the present no townsite has been projected which, on
