During recent pleasant call at
the New DOMINION Office, Mr. B. l..
Keenan,, who has been leading law
yer and real estate man in Wichita,
Kansas, for several years said: 81
would not advise young men to go
west now unless it would be the
thrifty farmer who has money to buy
a farm and wants to live on it. There
are too many lawyers, too many
doctors too many of every class ex-
cept the industrious, thrifty farmer.
A young man can settle in one of
the old communities of the east and
with the same energy and push make
far greater progress. The competi
ton in all lines of business in the
west makes it almost impossible to
succeed beyond mere mediocrity.
And property fuctuates so greatly
and so suddenly that few people
know what they are worth. | can
buy lots in the suburbs of Wichita
for less money than your Investment
Company sells property adjoining
Morgantown. NY advice TO young
men is to stay in the east; the same
work and energy required in the
west expended here will insure sue
cess"
