WHERE DOES AR0MoRE COME I'M

The controversy now going on be-
fore the corporation commission, be.
tween the Ardmore Gas company and
the Santa Fe Railway company, is
fraught with much interest to gas
users in Ardmore. The railway CON-
pany contends that much more gas Is
being furnished the Ardmore Heat &
Light company than the meters OF the
latter company show. The dscrep.
ancy varies with the different months
and runs as high as twelve millions OF
cubic feet In some months. In other
words, the railway company claims
that the citizens of Ardmore are get
ting as high as twelve million OF cubic
feet of gas month more than they
are paying for. The railway company
claims that the gas meters used by
the Ardmore Heat & Light company
are registering too small an amount
of gas.
If the contention OF the railway com
pany is true, the citizens of Ardmore
who are consumers Of gas, will be
called on to pay the differences, which
will amount to various sums, running
as high as three thousand dollars a
month. II can thus be seen that the
gas users in Ardmore are very much
interested in the outcome of this con
troversy. Commissioner Watson, oi
the corporation commission, was here
today hearing testimony, and as n re
suit of the examination, an expert will
be sent here to test the various meters
in the city, to see whether or not the
contention of the railway company Is
correct. -

Washington, d. c., Oct. 24.-The
board of trustees of the postal saw

for each state and territory. The
trustees are Postmaster General

to making the first of the test of the

cludes all the expenses of equipment.
Owing to the small appropriation 1t
was impossible to establish postal
savings banks during the first year
in the larger cities. Communities
were chosen in which the conditions
were exceptionally favorable for the
development of postal savings bust
ness, mostly industrial centers where
wage earners will be especially bene-
fitted by the kind of banking facilities
afforded.

expected In American cities VINO are

this may be noted In the damage which

Once let rust attack the polished surfaces
