THE PLUM.

II Ardmore wants to land either
the state normal or any other Of tho
state educational institutions that are
to be established in this section the
business man and property owner Will
have TO get a different move on him
self. and will have to do more work
than what has been done. The few
small committees that have been sent
have done good work. but the work
Of those few men should be rc-in-forc-
ed with the work Of other and larger
committees A number OF smaller
towns In this section of the state are
making a bid for these institutions.
Tho advantages that Ardmoro pos.
sess over the other towns are man.
Hold, that We know. but We will have
to impress the fact that Ardmore
should have the location of one or
ore Of these institutions ON the
minds Of the powers that be.

chances are about AS good as n
other two or city To secure these i'm.
sti%tutions, the people of Ardmorc had
better get busy right now and keep
busy.
one of the strongest speeches made
before the committee was the talk
made by Col. Sidney Suggs, who put
the matter Of the selection of the
location in a business light, and left
politics and other things out of it..
Tho railroad connections. the water,
natural gas, and the general existing
conditions of society here were put
strong 10 the committee. Leo Harris
is doing everything possible in the
premises to secure one or more Of

sistance from others in the city.
