The Oklahoma Indian land and ex¬ hibit car la now at rreeport, and ts being visited by many people from ali walks of life who are flllng ap- iicationH for the large tract of land which is to be sold by the United States government in South- ea^ern CHilahoma this fall. The car arrived in Freeport Friday
The car is fitted up with every¬ thing necessary for the instruction of those intereste<i in the manner and method of securing land in Oklahoma soon to be sold by the government. The car contains United States gco- logical maps and folios describing every acre of land to be disposed of, making it possible to team as much concerning these lands as if one were to go there in person.
These lands are said to be rich in minerals and are known officially by act of Congress as the "unalloted timberlands. There are fine farming, grazing and timber lands to be sold. The land lies in the great oil belt of the world, as last year the Oklahoma oil fields produced more than one- fourth of the entire world production, or over 122,000,000 barrels of oil.
The car contains a great many photORraphic views of the land, also of the oil fields, and the greatest de¬ velopment of the West, together with a large display of the products of the soil.
The United States government does not require purchasers of the land to live on it or improve the land, and

Pittsburgh, Pa.—Statistics compiled here show that Pittsburgh leads the world in origination of freight ton¬ nage. The products of the Pittsburgh district's mines, mills and other indus¬ trial plants form a tonnage two and one-half times greater than the ton¬ nage of the ports of London, New Tork

Manager Phillips of the Pullman cars, which advertise the land, to-
Mr. Phillips further stated that the land now to bc disposed of by the government has even greater possi¬ bilities for oil than that which h.is already been sold. Persons buying the land do not have to live on it or even improve it, and he says that as the land is located near to market towns and railroads, there is bound to bc a natural increase in value.
One feature of this investment is that in case a person is not satisfied with his purchase he can receive his money back within one year of the time of purchasing, together with 6 per cent, interest. The car will be open from 9 in the morning until 0 at night, daily, and will be located on the railroad track at Freeport Station.
Thought Some Overlooked. A party of friends was gathered New Yeiir'H day. After the wine had been passed around there wore two glasses left on the tray untouched. Just aa we were about to drink my brother-in-law said, "Well, folks, here's to happy da.vs." Hls^llttle daughter, who had been watching the whole per¬ formance, pointed to the glasses on the tray and wild.

Community Effort. Lord Dundreary humorously ques¬ tioned whether any lilnl would be such a "darned fool ns to go off and flock all by himself," and Inherently, no sane human being does It. We have been doing things in groups for sev¬ eral hundred thousand years now, nnd we have been getting better at it all the time. There Is still a long way to go. That is where the preachers of community effort can help.
