BIRDS TKKN NOW HNS
WASHINGTON, Sept. 22. (TP)
—North America had many more
kinds of birds at the time of the
ice age than at present, it is re
ported by Dr. Alexander Wetmore
of the Smithsonian Institution.
Birds of today have changed
ended between 20,000 and 30,000
little since the ice age, which
years ago, he says. Crows, storks,
ducks, geese, herons, grebes and
cormorants are among modern
birds that were living then.
Species of birds have been stead
ily exterminated since the ice age
times, Dr. Wetmore explains, and
there has been little evolution of
species that have survived. Many
extinct bird species are not known
because their bones were too
small to be well preserved as fos
sils.
Death boarded the steamship
Alaska recently as the vessel was
steaming toward Juneau from the
Westward. A passenger, who was
listed as Michael Cook but whose
name is believed to be De Loris
Lane, died just after the craft
had reached the east end of the
Alaska Gulf, says the Juneau Em
pire.

NEEDS MORE INCOME
Winter is approaching and the1
children's school expense will be!
higher this year than last. Bill i
looks forward to less income in
the regular way. Many industries
have shifted to the “zigzag” plan
for their employees in an effort
to help everyone thru the winter, j
This means that each employee
will have about half as much in- j
come. Prices of clothing and food
have come down some, but not in
keeping with the "zigzag” income.
There will be just as much coal to
buy and rent to pay. Bill must
have more money than he can
expect from his usual sources.
He has some money in the sav
ings bank drawing 3 per cent in
terest. While it is true that money
was put there for a “rainy day”
it isn’t bringing him any income
worth mentioning; and $20 or $40
or even $100 of that wouldn’t go
very far on a “rainy day.” He
needs more money coming in.
Bill Jones is the average Amer
ican. He knows that many a man
in exactly his financial condition
has invested part of his money,
and has made enough return to
give him the added income he
needed. But Bill knows there is
some speculation with every in
vestment, no matter what it is or
how good it sounds.
He doesn’t know whether he
should take any chances on either
his savings account or his present
income. Of course his savings ac
count is not absolutely safe; he
realizes more money has been lost
by depositors thru bank failures
j during the last 10 years than
[thru any single line of investment
other than the stock market crash
[in 1929. Being a true American
and realizing that “nothing risked,
nothing gained,” he likes to take
I a chance. Bill is a cautious fel
low and wants to speculate, but
he doesn’t want to lose his money.
So he tosses aside all the “wild
eyed” promises and impractical
guarantees that flood the mails
and seeks out a chance to specu
late with the safety of a flowing
j oil well to fall back on if the
I well he bets on turns out to be
[dry. If the new well comes in
i big, Bill should make a profit
I of 10 times his investment. If
i he doesn’t he still has his money
where it should pay him dividends,
over a period of years, twenty
times larger than the savings
bank interest. And he has the
speculative chance of making a
real fortune if the new well comes
in good. He wants to speculate
with his “fingers crossed, ’ as it
! were, and that is exactly what
he does when he accepts our spe
cial Pool offer, and shares in one
[gusher while we drill for another.
Write us for full information,
but better still—mail us $20, $100,
or even $200, and share in our
next dividend. If you are like
Bill Jones, we might help you.
