Mr. Fridstein is a contractor and to
him there came one Emanuel Stern.
Mr.. Stern had what is sometime re-
ferred to as a coed line, which in this
case turned out TO be q telephone line
but FTidstein found that out later.
II have $50,000 to invest in nice
business" said Mr.. Stern to Mr.. Frid-
stein. Your contracting business In

same as l."
This seemed plausible. so Fridstein
said 1t was all right by him.
So Stern sat around. From time to
time he would pick up the Fridstein
telephone and call up persons in dis
tant cities. He would get his party and
he would say: Hello; how are you?
Nice day, isn't itP It's pretty hot here,
too, but I guess we can't complain.
Well, I'll call you again some time,
good-by"
After while Mr.. Fridstein, being a
shrewd business man, spoke to Stern
about the long-distance telephoning
t"Oh, that's all right" said Stern.
Don't let it worry you"
Then came the phone bill-$l50
Fridstein waited for Stern, but Stern
seemed to have lost interest in the con-
tracing business and didn't call around
any more.
But it's small world and at the fa-
nous intersection of State and Madison

to face with each other but Mr.. Abe
