here Yesterday from Oklahoma City

the oil fields where both of them have

best boyhood friends. Mr.. Rosseau

aged to get hold on about 5000. He
decided to go to Vanderbilt and to
remain there as long as that sum
would last. He told his friend Rous-
seau of what he had done and there
was a panied expression mingled with
delight on his face because he wanted
to go himself 1t was then that A. c.
did the very thing that he has always
done ever since-ne divided the
money and both went to school. They
