Toronto LLAN McPHERSON Presi nt Quincy Adams Lumber Co., :d., Longford Mills, Ontario River district An Opportunity for the Srn; dl Investor` The Oil Fields of Texas and Okla- homa have possibly enriched more people than any other discovery of modern times. Opportunities were offered the public who were not in a position to make large investments , but many of whom have since become independently rich from the profits of their original small investments. To the Canadian Public -.r FORTUNES IN OIL The fabulous wealth returned from small investments in other oil fields reads like a fairy tale. $100 invested in Pinal Oil Co. paid $ 10,300.00 100 " " Lucile Oil Co. paid 16,000.00 100 " " Horne Oil Co. paid :40,000,00 100 " " Paraffin Oil Co. (in 10 years) paid 492,000.00 175 " " Coline Oil Co. paid 80,000.00 while each $100 invested in the Fortuna Oil Co., Texas, returned a quarter of a million ($250;000.00). During the four years i spent in the Peace River country I watched the oil development in all its stages. Eight wells have already been drilled in and near Peace River Town. Every well has brought in- oil—not one well has been drilled dry. • Pay oil has been discovered in at least five of the wells drilled, a record seldom attained in any now oil field on this continent. That oil would be discovered in Peace River was predicted by George Dawson, Canada's most eminent geologist, over thirty years ago. During the past five years a score of the world's best known geologists and oil experts have visited Peace River, and in every instance these men of science endorsed the prophecy of Sir George Dawson of long ago. • A valuable by-product of the oil fields of Peace River is wet gas, froth which, by simple prodess, gasoline is extracted, From three to five million feet of wet gas belches from the wells already drilled into the gas stratum. Every Man who has visited the wells at Pease River knows that oil is there, becauso he has seen it; but the wealth of the earth, be it gold, silver 'or oil, is of no value unless money is efficiently spent for its development. I believed the geologists and oil experts of this continent when they said that by drilling deeper into the oil sands at Peace River the BIG OIL POOL would be disccrared. Because of this belief and my personal knowledge of the actual discovery of oil in the wells drilled at Peace River I feel I am acting in the best interests of Canada when I recommend the Canadian ",people to join with Peace River Petroleums, Limited, and help to secure the big production of oil for our industries.
