Phenomenal Growth.
Some definite idea Of Pichers phe.
nomenal growth may be coDycycd BY
the statement that in March. 1910 the
Picher company carried 2lS persons on
its payroll. and fourteen children were
enrolled in the district school Now
between 5000 and 1000 people arc
said to reside under the beneficial
rule of a commercial club and
the compahy's manager, which form
the controlling government; 1000 per.
