tc say we cannot say SO much. Out
of the 157 who subscribed to the list
but 76 have paid their quarterly dues.
Instead Of this condition the club
should have over GOO paid members.
Reader, are you a member? If not
you should place your name upon the
list If you are a member and have
not paid. you should do so at once.
And if you are paid-up member you
should lend your aid in every way
possible to encourage your neighbor
to become a working, active member.
The work of the Commercial club is
being conducted upon less funds than
is that OF any other like institution in
the state, and yet it Is showing results
in way Of advertising equal to any.

tising conducted by the secretary are
accomplishing wonderful results in the
way of letting people abroad know
that Chickasha is a very important
locality on the map Of Oklahoma.
