tue Nuthlou az issue IS
rs the establishing OF a cotton mill
here worth the price"
There are many here who think that
tlt is and that Chickasha cannot afford
10 let It go TO neighboring point az
any price.
The cry OF our citizens has been
Give us more dinner pail brigades
and less retail spread
And there is good. hard sense in
that cry.
But how are we going to get the
dinner pail brigades without reaching
out after them?
We must offer inducements to 10
cate and get factories started here
A few factories located will bring
to us factories galore
There Is but one cotton mill in the
state and Il has been a great pay
ing investment
The citizens Of Guthrie had the fore.
sight and nerve TO put the factory in
and its stock is now at a good pre-
MUM That factory was put in two
years ago and Il has already been dou-
bled in capacity for output
One cotton mill in Chickasha. where
only today is cheap electric power in
the state. would bring others.
Let the cotton mill go to another
point in the state and another posi-.
bility for establishing a manufacture
ing city will have slipped from us.
Others have gone from us in days
gone by.
We have the cheap water power and
shipping advantages
TODAY.
Who will have them
TOMORROW
If We continue to let our foot and
grip slip on the ladder Of opportunity?
Chlckasha has the product for this
mill in quantities and quality that give
us advantages over other points.
Chickasha has the cheap water pow
er that gives us great advantage over
other points.
Chickasha has transportation facil-
tiles equalling those of any other point.
Chickasha can secure much larger
dividend on investments of this kind
than can our neighbors.
Then why should this proposition
that to us figures out a $4,000 advan-
tage over first cost slip from us?
II must not
Our citizens must get busy!
The proposition can be handled
Our people want it bad enough to
pay the price
Then every mothers son of you that
think the factory should be located
here
GET BUSY
Talk it TO your neighbor and urge
your neighbor to do likewise
Dallas, the larger city, thought she
did not have to strain herself to get
railroads that were offered her
Fort Worth, the neighboring smaller
city, paid the price to railroads.
And you know the sequel,
Is Chickasha to look back in after
years and say, as Dallas
Alas we had all the advantages
at the outset and could have held them
with ease; but we could not appre-
ciate their worth?"
There is more, dear reader, in this
move than the mere establishment Of
factory.
It may turn Chickasha's career
There should be an under current,
If from no other source, that would
cause our citizens to sit up and take
notice
VIII you, reader, be one to encour-
age that current?

YOUTH ENDS LIFE
Boy Hangs Himself to Tree; Little
Brothers Find Body.

Washington, Pa, May 11.-"There's
a man standing under a tree out there,
looking straight up, and he doesn't
move Bit" eycitedly announced two
little sons Of Mr. and Mrs. William
Drum to their mother at o'clock Sun.
day morning, running into the house,
near Ten-NIile, after starting to get
the cows from pasture.
Investigation revealed that Robert
Drum, an 1S-year-old son, had hanged
himself from limb Of a maple tree
200 yards from, his home. The boy,
who weighed more than 200 pounds,
had taken a COW halter, climbed the
tree, fastened one end of the halter
to a limb and the other about his
neck, and dropped. His neck was not
broken and death resulted from
strangulation.
The motive for the suicide is not
definitely known. A week ago the
boy was severely rebuked by his fa-
ther for whipping a horse while the
two were working in hay field. A
quarrel followed and the boy, leaving
the field, did not return to his home
His parents were ignorant as to his
whereabouts during the week, but it
is said he had been staying at the
home of an aunt near Ten-mile.
Saturday night Drum called at Miss
Loars home, leaving there at 10
o'clock. He gave no hint of his plans.
Later he was seen by several resi-
dents of the village from whom he
tried to borrow money. 1t is now be.
lieved he intended to buy revolver.
Failing in this he resorted to the cow
halter which he took from his fathers
barn.

was satisfied his child either was not

the current miles down stream.
In the midst of the search a terri

Farmers served luncheon for the
searchers at noon, including coffee,

strikers in the settlement of the postal
difficulties" he said will always be a

position at that time has melted the
workers in all the other departments
to push outrageous demands, and the
whole battle, which might have been
