advice. This same concern,
/ discovered, had taken an
option on mothers property.
After exercising the option
for which they paid a
thousand dollars and act

suddenly abandoned all op-
erations and left all equip

or forty Thousand dollars,
standing on the property.

had stock in Giant California
and Southwestern. He used
the channels at his disposal
to run this thing on down,
and we discovered that they
had indeed found the oil on
mothers land. "
Mama gasped. She said,
"I don't quite understand,
dear"
He got out his pencil, and
looked through the papers in
his pocket until he found
the back Of an old envelope
to figure on. He explained
happily. Mama tried to con-
centrate on what he was
saying but \she kept trying
to read the funny abbrevia-
tions he wrote on the paper,
and it got her so confused
that in the end all she could
make of it was that Old
Lady Hollenbeck's eucalyp-
tus grove that was once a
chicken ranch was now an
oil field, and she'd never
have known it until it was
too late and she had lost it
for taxes and mortgages and
things, if papa had not sus-
pected that the oil people
were just trying to cheat
her by reporting their opera
tions a failure.

sort. If l had known earlier
it would have been even

women. A large, expansive
smile. ="

quavered.
"No, no """ how could
mother finance such a thing?
But as | say, Burkhart and

bluff. For a consideration,
my good friend Oliver Lach-

property was legally in

occurrence, no under-color will show
through to make an unsightly wall
