Fern vrillcv school house, for the
purpose of procuring their sitniuturds
to this lease.: said to .be a copy of
the one with which some of the bie
oil -eompanies- tied up 'munv of: the
farmers nnd land owners of Tcxns

Jiroad 'acres .for those "future 'generations."',-',
Should this "lease? to
any considerable extent or even to

the. conviction of those who are in a
position to know, it might put a per
ffiaiiefTt quietus "on the valley so far as
oil developmenti is - concerned, and
would most assuredly put u quietus
on the real estate business so fur, as
aercag property is: concerned. I iim
heartily in -favor of leasing for., oil
development to honest lessees, who
are ready and - willine-to show- the
faith thev . profess by binding them
selves to begin the actual work within
a specified time, and io continue and
prosecute the same in a- business-like
and diligent manner without avoidable
interruptions or ; delays; ' until thev
have either struck oil or gone to1 the
