Alone in the Field.

The Saturday Evening Post tells
this:
A young Chicago man went to a
Western town in the first days OF the
oil excitement out there to see what
was stirring.
The day after he arrived he went
into a restaurant to get his breakfast
=, and found an old friend sitting at
the table to which he was assigned.
"Hello!" said the man at the table.
"When did you come in Jim?'
"I got here yesterday. How long
have you been here?' q
"Six months. What are you going
to do?"
"Oh, just look around and try to
make an honest dollar
"Well," said the six-months' man,
''you ought to make your fortune, you
won't have any competition"
