They trumped through the pas- ture. a strange procession, Ade laide skipping ahead and Gary and Harvey behind her, Gary limping a little and feeling somehow heavily tired. Mona Lee followed behind and kept stopping and im- .plorlng them not to go so fast She carried a barn lantern, and the round blob of light beneath it wobbled over the rough ground.

The beam of I-lu-vey's flashlight went searchingly ahead.

At. last Gary fell back with Mona Lee. and they stopped to rest because Gary's legs were qui- verlng under him.

sitting on a dry tuft. of grass, Mons. Lee looked straight in front of her, staring at the flame of the lantern. "some ways, Gary," she said in a low tone, ”I hope he doesn't find it. We're getting along well enough I hate to have everything torn up and changed."

"Perhaps he won't find it." Gary said. lighting a cigarette awk- wardly with hh lame hand. "But he won't be haPPY now until he tries."

Harvey carried a. spade and a cloth sack thrown over his should- er. And when they arrived at last at the little can on he began digging immediately. rig lumps of rock and earth into the and lthat Adelaide held open. The girl groaned as the weight of the sack increased.

"If you were going to carry the whole ranch home, Dad, why didn't you bring slim and the truck? Are these any good at all. Gary?"

Gary was confident that this sampling had no value, but he could not bear to dash I-Iarvey's enthusiasm. "Can't tell," he said.

"Whatever we do, Dad, let's not tell Oliver."

"Why not? He works with oil."

cattle business, too. but I get a- long."

"Oil is different. You've got to have s. permit from the state Rail- road Cornmisaicrn to start drilling at all. They haven't been issu- ing very many perrnlis lately. And then. you've got to do something with the oil. You'd have to get some company to run a pure line in here - and if there wasn't enough oil to be profitable you'd have to pipe it to the refinery youroolf. or else truck it off."

"son," Harvey argued. "looks to me like you're one of these people who give up mighty easy."

"I'm not giving up. I'm merely showing you all the angles. I feel a. sort of responsibility for get- ting you interested in this, Mr, Mason. and I don't want to get you into a. lot of grief. If you had to haul too far, your transporta- tion would eat up your profit. And if you had to haul lo a railroad, you'd have to build your own load- ing station."

"I'd rim me a siding in." Harvey said.

"Oh, my goodness, let's don't have any railroad tracks going through this place, Ha.zvey...ruin- ing the Wadi on the lino and may- be running over the chickens." "Oh, Mother! If we found all, we wouldn't even live here. We'd move to town and build a gorgeous house and msybo a swimming pool

"Because he'd want to run every- thing. And Grace would move in and take charge and think we ought to let Oliver run it. He doesn't know much about produc- tion anyway, ho Just peddles leases."

"Of course," Gary said, as they turned back to the house, "the sensible thing to do is to sell a lease, that is if there should be oil down there. If you sell out to a producing concern, they'll put down a test well and then close the area and hold it for fu- ture production. That wouldn't spoil your grazirg or interfere with your stock."

But Harvey disagreed violently with this idea. "If there's oil down there, the thing is to get it out. And it's my land. and if there's oil under it. I want it. I don't want some bunch of capitalists to get rich from what belongs to me."

"Of course." Gary said, "if there is oil down there and if it won't cost you too much to go down af-

.

ter it - and if the Government will let you produce it after you find it. There are a. lot of trioh angles to this oil business." "There are a lot of angles to the

"But I don't want to move to town, Adelaide. This is home. I want to stay right here."

"What I don't see is - if it's all so complicated and gloomy as Gary says -- hovr do people ever make money in oil?"
