have really been available for several days, but this
is their official introduction Essentially English,
these Raglans and listers embody every feature

they are as representative of En9lands best as
Saks-made clothes representative Of the best

ITO exploit the wonders OF their town
Okmulgee la about half the size Of
Chlckasha but what she lacks in nam
bers, she makes up n grit and gin
ger and those are the qualities that
win IN the town building game.
The OlxmuIge train Is to spend two
weeks on its missionary tour, stopping
at al towns Of 100 or more people.
distributing speeches. souvenirs ana
literature, extolling the advantages Of
the town.
It was just a few days ago they ded-
icated a $4,000 sheater at Okmulgee
and that was another illustration of
the enterprise which forms the prin-
ciDal ingredient in building city.
We are not here particularly to
praise Okmnlgee but TO call attention
to her example as an object lesson for
Chickasha boosters. We should be
willing to learn from any source and
there is much for edification in the
activities OF the plucky little town.
II Is not numbers that count SO much
In any army but rather the quality Of
the soldiers. A dozen can. chase
thousand If they are made Of the right
kind OF stuff.
Every town must work out its own
salvation in its own way. 1t isn't al
ways wise to initiate the methods OF
others but the spirit manifested by
Okmulgee IS the one to be exhibit
ed by any town that achieves success
Let US form our own plan OF cam

On May II the I, & c. building will
be dedicated and we should make il

And then the editors OF the state
win assemble here for their annual
meeting May 1920, bringing probably
200 knights Of the quill from towns
large and small.
Seldom has an opportunity been pre-
sented to any town to do so much adj

Chickasha people should realize
that the /. L & G. is one Of our great.

toward bringing it to the attention Of

At is fortunate for US that Mr. Wilson
has summoned the county superinten.

i Is also partieultrly fortunate that
