ARDMORE TO. HAVE
MOVING PICTURES
AN EFFORT WILL BE MADE TO.
NIGHT TO HAVE THE CITY
SHOWN AT FRISCO.

| CoIneIClal CluD JOnlSnt the queS
tion Of whether Ardmore will b,
shown in moving pictures at tn,
Panama Exposition or not, will b,
discussed, Mr. Turner, secretary u
| the Oklahoma Panama exposition
commission is here and will address:
the meeting on this subject.
Ardmroe has many important il
dustries is in the heart of rich
but comparatively undeveloped agri-
cultural section, while the indica-
,'ons are of one of the world S. rich
Ssy. IDS in, Ardmore's territory
"lore prosperous city in
the s., b The size, if any, and none
with BETTE homes, schools and
churches. Ardmore is the greatest
inland cotton marset IN the world.
There is no city or section of the
state offering better returns on mon
ey invested by the agriculturalst and
home seeker than in and around
Ardmore.
The whole state and the world
should know these things and the
opportunity offered by the Oklahoma
Panama Commission furnishes most
efficient way. AS means of ac-
complishing the patriotic purpose of
this organization which is to fur
nish to this state and for every part
Of it dn adequate state building and
exhibit at the Panama Pacific Expo
sition at San Francisco, and to aid
in financing that proposition, moving
pictures will be taken of the various
cities and industries of the state,
which have sufficient life, resources
and patriotism to furnish their share
CT the fund These pictures will
be shown throughout the state of
and in February, 1915, will
be taken to San Francisco and there
shown free to visitors from all over
the world in the theatre room of the
building for the nine
months of the Exposition.
~To Ardmore this advertising will
be of untold value. 1t is conserya-
lively estimated that fully a quarter
million people under this plan will
see Ardmore. A city and community |
which has anything worth showing |
o the state and the world, will !
rom this attractive publicity, get |
benefits in proportion to what it has |
o show and does show There are |
July ten times as many people Wis
ting the motion picture shows in |
his country today as there are all |
,ther forms of amusement combined. |
t is safe to say that Ar1more as |
/ city will never have such another
opportunity for effective city adver-
Using as this. And incidentally it |
S all for the good of the whole |
tate of Oklahoma, in placing and
,eeping this state right before itself |
md the whole world and in all
matters of state pride and interest,
Ardmore and Carter County have al
Ways been found in the front ranks.
IL, hn tof Af
lie who desire to change their loca-
ion, and few can afford to visit
he whole state in search of the best
lace for a home, but by this plan
he real live sections of the state
'ill all be shown to them most
lainly in motion pictures. They are
imply waiting to know of the city
lost suited to their needs and de-
Tres, or the sections where they
an get the best and most productive
alues. Many of them are the best
tizens in their respective communi-
es Will Ardmore and Carter coun-
: look good TO such men? Is any
ling more necessary than to let
lem see and be convinced as these ,
ctures of this city and county thus
lown will effect? Ardmore needs
lch men and their families and with
le statewide showing of these pic
Tres. and with like results at the
anama Exposition, many of these
eople will be induced to make Ard
ore or Carter county their home,
r Ardmore and Carter county will
'mpare most favorably when shown
ith other Oklahoma cities and coun-
rs. Ardmore should be on this new
ap of Oklahoma for her own as
eli as the states good
