DR., BURNS
HELD REVIVAL
At NORMAN
FIRST MAN TO MAKE SPIRITUAL
INRoADS UPON STUDENT BODY
OF THE STATE UNIVERSITY AT
NORMAN.

DR.. J. w. Burns, pastor of the First
Christian church of this city, has re-
turned from Norman, where he spent
three weeks conducting revival
meeting. He enjoyed HIS stay there
very much and the results of the
meeting were very satisfactory Some
thing like thirty students of the uni
versity were reached and that many
asked for membership in the church.
DR.. Brooks, president of the university
stated that DR.. Burns was the only
minister who had made inroads upon
the student body while lie had been
there.
Dr. Burns work here has demon
strated his power. He is always busy
and his work is Euided by most excel
lent judgment He has not been in the
ministry for very long period. His
early life was del oted to the law ano
he went from layman to prosecuting
attorney and from that office to the
district bench. He believes in the
law of progress, and has demons trated
that belief in his life work.
DR.. Burns states that while in Nor
man he stayed at the hotel in that
city and met many new people every
day. He heard many conversations
about the hotel in which Ardmore was
the topic of discussion. without a
single exception these people stated
that Ardmore was the busiest and
best city in the state, and he believes
that many good things await this city
the coming year.

GOODBYE, PROF"

The retiring OF Mr. John F. Easley
as editor-in-chief and oil editor of The
Ardmorcite. will attract the attention
Of many oil men in this and adjoining
states.
Although Prof" as he is affection
ately called by his friends and those
intimate with him. will be- engaged in
work from now ON which will give
greater scope to his mdoubtcd ability,
and he will hc more closely in touch
with the inner workings OF the oil
game his retirement from newspa-
per work will be greatly regretted.
Among the oil men of Ardmore,
Tulsa. oklahoma city, Muskogee, and
all other oil cities his oil news has
been accepted as facts without a
tinge Of cNaggeration Facts. real
facts. could only interest him, and
those he gave.
The oil came is a big one. and oil
men want big men associated with
them in handling this immense bust
ness. and The Ardmorcite IS not the
only organization that has yielded one
OF its faithful employees to The game.
Mr. Easley is a big. broad man in
many ways. He is in the prime Of life
and will make success in the oil
gaIne as he has in newspaper build
fng. Having reported the Healdton
and other fields from the start OF the
oil game IL is not surprising 10 The

OUR BANKS PROSPER.

In these days of prosperity and pro
gress, Ardmore may be justly proud
of the showing that her banks have
made.
Each and all OF the institutions have
gone forward with remarkable strides
until now the combined deposits in
the banks OF Ardmore show grand
total of nearly five million dollars or
.$4.925. 1898, to be exact. Compared with
their deposits of only short time
since, this showing is remarkable.
The bankers of ArdmOre are all
men who are capable of rising to the
occasion other words-big men,
BY this Is meant that no matter to
what extent an industry or the city
might expand. they would be capable
of keeping pace with all conditions
which they might be called upon to
cope with. This is saying much, but
past performances show evidences to
that effect. The bankers of Ardmore
are alert, up,to -the-minute and with
the times in every emergency.
Periods of progress and stagnation
appear to alternate like the swinging
of a pendulum. but from every indi-
cation taking all things into consid
is reasonable to believe
that there will be a period of progress
in Ardmore for the next ten years
which will not only result in the build
ing up of yet stronger financial insti
Iutions. but also in the building of
city which will be credit to the
great southwest.
The man who takes advantage of !
he opportunities which will be pre-
,euted from now On-no matter wheth- |
'r he shows a marked aptitude for
money making or not-wll, if he |
,eeps his eyes open, be abundantly |
