This week is the banner one OF
The Ardmoreite's great double con-
test, and the knowing candidates are
certainly hauling in the subscriptions.
Some candidates have set a mark of
at least one SIS club a day until the
end of the great campaign, and sew
eral are making good, too, with
their estimates Late starters in act
i've work are making wonderful
showings now and their rapid gains
in the vote column and also in their
reserve vote has been phenomenal
this includes candidates in both con-
test districts.
To state the unvarnished truth, this
contest will be a great surprise to
the entire community, and to several
of the candidates entered in the
race-Some will perhaps have regrets
because of not working just little
harder; others will see after the
campaign is over where they could
have won a much greater award, had
they only gone after and secured a
few more subscriptions, one $l5 club

you aware OF these things, candi-
dates? Are YOU doing all you
can to further YOUR interests-and
are YOU making every effort YOU
possibly can between now and the
closing moment to get every vote

forelock, you and all your friends
will be among the topmost Shout

Some of the prizes in this contest
are going to be won mighty easy,
and some are going to be hotly con-
tested for-for this good reason it
is important that every candidate
should remember that the vote count
will be close ana that single sub
scription may mean much to an i'll
dividual. The votes in the paper IS
no indication of what the final count
will be because all candidates are
working now as they never worked
before; and, the earnestness with
which some candidates are putting
forth their efforts would indicate
that it is a life and death" strug-
gle until the last stroke of the
clock up to the closing hour.
The voting today was up to the
limit in both districts, with Miss
Helen Terry still leading in district
one and gaining ground on her field.
Miss Ruth Seaton of Sulphur, who
was in fifth position yesterday, leads
her competitors with a vote count
bordering dangerous close on the
three hundred thousand mark.

MARIETTA To
PAVE STREETS
ABUNDANCE OF FINEST PAVING
MATERIAL OUTcROPPING NEAR
THAT CITY.

II is understood that at an early
date the city council of the city OF
Marietta, in the adjoining county of
Love. will have the streets OF that
place paved. With this end in view,
We are informed the city commits
sioners are investigating the differ
ent kinds of paving material which
is on the market at the present time.
The matter of paving the streets
Of a city is one which should be OF
vital moment to the taxpayers OF the
city The first cost of paving Is OF
nee essity very heavy, and it there
fore devolves upon the taxpayers who
are called upon to look out for the
freight. to see to it that the paving
is done with the most lasting and
longest wearing material. Marietta
has this material right in her door
yard. so to speak. We would not
presume to tell Marietta where she
should 60 for her paving material,
nor what kind of material she should
use. but We will say that her com
missioners NAV look further and not
find as good paving as they will find
right in the native asphalt which
abounds in the northern portions Of
Love and the southern parts of Car
ter counties.
The native asphalt of Carter and
Love counties is said to be the finest
N the world. And when properly pre-
Jared and spread upon the streets
it makes an almost indestructible
paving. 1t is as smooth as glass. as
hard as adamant, as indestructible as
steel. 1t is much cheaper than any
other
Dallas, Texas, few years ago
tried a foreign or imported paving
material with the result that it was
found a failure and had to be taken
up on streets where hauling was ex-
ira heavy and replaced with the. old
fashioned wooden block.
Wherever used the southern Okla
homa asphalt, produced in Love and
Carter counties, has proven inde-
structible One street alone, in Kan
sas City, Mo, was paved with this
asphalt fifteen years ago and the
paving is today, despite the heavy
traffic over it, practically as good as
new
Among the many cities which have
paved their streets with southern OK
lahoma asphalt, and whose officials
will certify to its durability, may be
named Ardmore, Pawhuska, Holden
Vile, Tulsa, Sulphur and Hugo, Ok
lahoma Kansas City, Mo, Kansas
City, Kan; Paris, Tex, and numerous
other cities and towns.
As we stated in the beginning, we
do not wish to presume in the mat
ter, but we trust that the commits
aioners of Marietta will give the
home product, which is known to be
superior, careful consideration
when they finally come down to the
matter of selecting the material with
which to pave the streets of their
city.
