dance, beating each other on the back while, on the derrick floor. the rouzhnecks worked frantically. in the truck Mona Lee and Ada- laide were shrieking. and Adelaide came running. screaming questions that needed no answers. The ex- citement around the well was ans- wer enough. Then Mona Lee came stumbling up, and tears were run- ning down her face.

"Oh, Gary! Oh, Gary!"

Gary lifted her oif her feet and swung her in a circle. "We've got oil!"

The miracle had happened. It was there, Oili They had oil.

How much, no man knew. Ex- pcrts would determine that. But now Harvey Mason could hire ex- perts-now that glimmering tower against the sky was it monument to achievement and to an old man's

blind faith-no longer a. monu-'

merit to an as!

They went back to the house alter a little. wiilkuig crookediy. stumbling. laughing. and Gary kept driwviiig deep breaths to force air into his taut chest. because for some time he had been too tense to breathe.

Maria. was putting the kettle on in the kilchrn when they went in, and she gave a little shriek at the sight of them.

Gary caught a glimpse of him- self in the kitchen inlrror. He was grimy from head to foot, and his eyes looked like fiery holes in the grayish mass of grease! his grin split a face so haggard that he looked like a man rescued irom a black and oily grave.

Adelaide's eyes, he saw, were blazing with triumph. "Oh. Maria!" she cried. ”We're rich! We've got oill We've got oil!"

Marla. dropped the egg heater and it rolled. spewing yellow ruin on the floor.

"Oh. Mother.” Adelaide exclaim- ed. "Wire Dad. Wire him quick."

"The telegraph oiiica won't be

open till eight. o'clock."

"uh. I think Hickey": an old angel! I'd like to hug him. I'm going to call Grace right now -- I'm going to gloat...oh. Mother. isn't it beautiful to be rich?" She flew away without waiting for anyone to answer and Gary and Mona Lee stood looking at each other a. bit humbly.

Mona Lee said, ”Gary, you've got a dirty face. Gary-I Just knew somehow that you'd bring us luck."

"Don't give me any credit. Mrs. Mason. 1 had given up. It was Hickey who hung on. And you had the courage to let him try this."

"It didn't take any courage. Maria, you run quick and tell Mr. Hickey and all those men out there to come straight in here and get some breakfast."

Gary scrubbed the black grease from his hands and face in the sink. "No use going out there.

:Maria-Hickey wonlt stir oil! that

derrick floor till he gets on up and in his hands-not till he smells it and tastes it and rubs it on his hair-and knows he's got pressure

-and how much. He's an old- timer."

”God bless him." said Mona Lee ienciitly.

Within an hour the mysterious grapevine that follows oil had com- municated the news Before nine o'clock cars came tearing in at the drive. Men who sold tanks. men who sold pumping equioment. in- surziince men. curiousity seekers, men who came to gloat and men who came to sneer, Hickey stayed on the job. beaming end strutting. His grotesque grin had never left his oil-smeared face.

Mona. Lee sent out buckets of coffee and a. dishpan full of hot biscuits with bacon between, and the crowd around the derrick grew and grew.

Harvey's wire came at noon.
