OIL STOCK SALESMAN

met a man all nicely groomed,
and for two hours or more was doom
ed to sit and listen to his CAB, to sell
me oil stock that he had. The way he
talked would make one think, that oil
like water that you drink, flows in
streams like babbling brooks, a gold
en- oily stream gadzook. And so he
spread his oily talk, about his bunch
of bunco stock, and raved about those
gushing wells, and high priced leases
that he sells. For hours and hours
heard him talk, and ask of me why |
should balk at riches that would come
my way, if | would but invest my pay
in old fields that We're bound to flow,
if ! would only give him dough. enough
to drill down to the shale, and then
we'd pull down lots of kale Soon we
could live like ancient kings and spend
our dough for fancy things, and look
1T sights we'd never seen, and burn
lot of gasoline. He said | surely
was fool. not to put money in pool,
with other men who speculate and thus
he did aIticulate, about the wealth de-
rived from oil, 80 never more we need
TO toll, while we are in this vale of
tears, for we would all be profiteers.
And with my cash that he'd invest, in
prospects known to be the best for
well he knew how it was done, and all
he needed now was mon. He asked
me to exchange my rocks, for several
barrels of worthless stocks, and a
great fortune we would land as soon
as we struck paying sand. At last to
him ] softly said, your hot air can not
turn my head, for have labored quite
while, to try to save my little pile.
have it hid where it won't spoil, and
| refuse to spend for oil, one cent of
my i'll gotten roll to help you drill
prospect hole. I'd sooner risk it in
the bank, than help erect a storage
tank. to hold the oil you may not get,
SO | won't spend nickel yet, to help
you start to drill a well, nor buy wild
cats you have to sell. So please
want to be alone, and refuse to spend
bone, on oil wells, mines or other
schemes to take from me those hard
earned beans, for ! have bought stock
oft before, until assessments kept me
poor, so please vamoose | will not
