To plan for a greater Phoenix, out lining and furthering big substantial municipal improvements while the city is well started on the fastest and most general growth in its history, tiie di rectors of the clumber of commerce yesterday at their noon meeting de cided to ask the presidents of the Mer chants' and Manufacturers' associa tion, the Rotary and Kiwanis clubs and the chamber of commerce to call upon the mayor and the city commission to suggest that a committee of 123 repre sentative citizens be appointed for that purpose. There are many big things for such a committee to consider, the directors of the chamber of commerce suggested. Among them are a new waterworks supply, enlarging ot the city limits, the drainage question, the removal of the town ditch, the matter of more parks and many other municipal improve ments that would mean much for Phoenix and whion matters must be met and settled in the affirmative if the city is to continue in its present rapid and substantial growth. Main Line Railroad The question of securing a main line railroad for Phoenix must also be fore most in the activities of the civic or- I sanitations, it w:ls reminded, and th j president of the chamber of commerce j was asked, to take up with Dr. John ; Dennett, chairman, the matter of 'a reorganization of the chamber ol I commerce railroad committee. Through ' the proposed extension of t'ue Buckeye j line to the new GiU project could this j long-hoped-for main line be brought nearer realization, it was pointed out I In a communication from Shirlej j j Christy, secretary of the state fail ! commission, the chamber of commerce j i is asked to urge of the board of super- i j visors that instead of the usual custom ! ! of the fair commission and the cfiam- ber raising by solicitation from the j merchants of Phoenix a sum of money j eac1! year to help Oefray the expenses I of the state fair, that, believing the ; burden should be borne by the tax- j payers of the city rather than by the ' few who contribute, the supervisors are requested in making the tax levy to : raise at least $5,000 to the state fair. ; Wednesday Luncheons Hereafter ' ' The Rocky Mountain club of New j York having asked for a picture of the ' Roosevelt dam, an answer was sent i telling the club that a copy of the , large rhotograph of the d;un would be sent in a few days. , Roy S. Goodrich was appointed 'a j committee of one to make arrange ments tor cuire room in me cnamner of commerce building tor other or- ganizations. Yesterday was the first noon lunch eon of the directors of the chamber at the Arizona cUib. It is to be a weekly affair in the future each Wednesday at 32: 15 o'clock. Captain Appleby, in charge of the 1 airplane recruiting service, was pres- ; ent at the meeting and explained some j of the requirements of aviation, the ' value of a complete flying field for ! Phoenix and the methods which may help tc establish one in this city. 1 AY.

Province. Geraldine Farrar said at a tea at Sherry's-: "Girls who have gone in for the Tl Hi i ran Br i lie; yndicate offers A Ground Floor Proposition in Texas Oil We have 295 acres of oil leases, divided into eight tract? In the Pecos Valley Oil Field Reeves and Ward Counties, Texas On llie Geological Oil Struct". At the center of active operations 24 wells are drilling or contracted within the district. OIL HAS BEEN STRUCK IN THE LAUkA WELL In the first sand at less than 900 feet, reliable reports stating that the oil stood 40 feet within the casing. The oil has been cased off and the well is Be ing continued to the deeper sands and will be sunk to a depth of 4500 feet if necessary. This well and others drilling are in the midst of and close to our .holdings. Other strikes of oil may be expected at any time. You know the story of Burk-Burnett, Duke, Ranger and other famous pools where acreage that could be bought f or nominal sums a few years ago is to day selling for fabulous prices, a single acre bringing practically as much as the value placed on our entire holdings. 80 wells in Burk-Burnett have paid six and one-half millions in dividends. Faith Makes Millionaires We have faith in Pecos Oil 1 Because we are in the great oil belt running from Oklahoma down into Mexico. . ' 2 Because eminent geologists say "There is oil in Pecos Valley 3 Because a dozen big oil corporations are backing up their faith by spend ing thousands of dollars in drilling. 4 Because oil has actually been struck in the first sand in the Laura well, only one and one-half miles from our holdings. " OUR PROPOSITION We place upon our entire holdings of 295 acres the extremely low valuation of $25,000 and are selling unit interests at $250.00 per unit, each unit repre senting one one-hundredth interest in the entire property. In this way the small buyer has an opportunity to participate in all of our holdings instead of concentrating all of his money in one small tract. A large number of the units are already disposed of and the balance are going fast, so you will have to act without delay to get in on this. If you are seeking a legitimate investment in oil with prospects of enormous returns and one that is as near a ground floor proposition as any one but a philanthropist could offer, look no farther: send your check at once. Unless, 'we get your money now we have no use for it. ' oenix Pecos Oil Syndicate 3 West Adams St. Ph B. H.
