Vile bridge has been completed and
Marietta has called upon Ardmore for
the last $500 installment of the $1,000
which was subscribed toward this
work.
Gainesville and Marietta have already
completed their payments.
1t was part of the understanding
when this subscription was made that
Love county would also put the over
brook section of the road in first class
shape.
In the meantime Love county voted
a road bond issue and it was expected
that at least u part of this money
would be used on the Overbrook road
Information has been received to
the effect that the issue will be used
on an east and west road and nothing
whatever done on the Overbrook road.
a special committee composed of a.
Eddleman, Sidney Suggs and Paul B.
Smith was appointed at the Friday
night meeting to take this matter up
with Love county officials and ask
for fulfilment of the pledge made con
corning the north and south road.
Possibly a Cotton Mill
The industrial committee was in
structed at the meeting Friday night
to make systematic investigation of
the feasibility of establishing a cotton
mill in ArdmOre to manufacture
bagging, ducking, and Denim.
The location of such an industry is
entirely feasible for Oklahoma, and
pn haitian f,t. rpora louirul ,nint wit n
the state can be found than Ardmore.
when every phase of requirement IS
taken into consideration.
This is big enterprise and the best
guarantee of it's success would be to
interest some of the large Eastern
cotton manufacturers in establishing
such an industry here as a branch.
1t is along this line that the Ard
more Chamber of Commerce expects
to conduct this investigation.
