CAS- PRESSURE
NiSFINE HERE
THIS MORNING
I'M FACE OF FACT THAT THIS IS
THE COOLEST DAY OF YEAR
THE GAS COMPANY is MAKING
GOOD ITS PROMISE.

While other cities are complaining
of gas shortage, Ardmore is indeed
fortunate in as much as the pressure
here this morning, the coolest day of
the year was excellent and no incon-
yenience was experienced on account
of lack Of gas. The Ardmore City Gas
company is making good their prom
o to the public and are in position
to supply all the gas necessary.
The gas situation here at one time
was not so good, many times the citi-
zons arose in the morning to find that
70 would barely flicker and were com
PEELED TO take their breakfast out of
q tin can or a paper sack. This was
in the early days of the gas company,
however, and such conditions do not
exist now When the present com
pany took hold Of affairs they promis-
ed the people that they would supply
I /
the field and they have made every
effort to conserve it and supply it to
the citizens Of this city Oklahoma
city has gas shortage at present
and the people up there are protesting
yehemently. The supply company is
blaming the producing company, and
the producing company is getting back
at the supplying company In the
meantime Oklahoma City sits and
shiyers. Happily for Ardmore no such
condition exists and the gas pressure
today, the coolest of the year and per-
haps the coolest day we will have is
just as good as it was last June
The mercury here this morning reg
istered 7 above zero, the nearest ap-
proach to this was a December day
when it went to above.

Two Uses for Myths.

The Greek philosopher AlLtt 3tlc
said that myths were invented by leg
islator' "to persuade the many and to
be used in support Of law" Modern
scholars think 1t more likely that early
lawmakers found these myths already
prevalent and saw how they could be
made an instrument for governing
men. Such myths appear to be Of two
kinds. those which are used to lend
weight To authority, and those which
have been invented by the weak and

known that before the final design Of
this engine is approved 1t must under
go few final tests In that little green

ditiOTs almost Identical with cOndI-
