UNITY OF SPIRIT

Unity Of purpose, unity Of spirit
ever marks the progress Of a com
munity. Where people dwell together
in harmony there we find the ending
Of discord and the beginning "f
friendship and brothcrly accord.
Unity Of spirit and blending Of
sweet sounds creates harmony and
harmony Yields an entire community
into one large family who live to-
eethcr. working collectively ana IN
divldually in the interests Of the
welfare Of all.
one of the greatest factors which
has marked the unity of spirit, the
harmony Of purpose of Ardmorc, is
the Philharmonic club. This club
is COMPOSED of music lovers, Of those
whose ears are attuncd to love sweet
sounds, whose hearts thrill at musics
vibrating notes, whose lives are en-
oblcd through an alteration Of all
blending of harmonies, either vocnl
or instrumental.
The Philharmonic club of Ard
more has done more than has any
other one element toward drawing
the people 10 a common center, to
center wherein the cares and wor-
ries and vicissitudes Of life are for
rotten while the soul Of man drinks
in music's charms as all nature
smiles.
Ardmorc, looked upon by all too
many in the land Of the rising sun
as being the nome Of the wild and
wooly hero Of cayuse.riding bronch-
busting fame, is really one of the
most enlightened and most progress
Sive cities of the great southwest.
t. public buildings rear their walls
into the higher reaches of space;
it churches point their steeples to-
ward the ethereael blue Of heaven It's
ctizegs have the best schools and the
hest libraries. and it has the Phil
harmonic Club, the club wnlCh is
composed Of real lovers of real music.
Culture is always found where
Music regns, its followers are ever
Gavotcea at Music's shrine. The peo'
pie who have music in their souls,
who love music's harmonious sounds
are ever cultured people, q Chris
tan people, a people who believe I'm
the goodness Of life and the great
ness of the Being who rules over
all.
Approaching all this the Ardmore
Philharmonic Club has worked from
yoar to year, ever since it first was
organized TO give the people Of Ard
more something really worth while,
something which shows and proves
all that we have said about music
and unity of purpose being the great

moral supporters.
Every year the Philharmonic Club
has given the people of Ardmore
some new evidence of the powers
of music ana of musics charms.

the people OF this city the Musical

Of an who attended
This year approaching the fact
that variety is the spice of life the
club enters into something bit
different musically, and it is to be
hoped that the effort will also re-
ceive the hearty support ana com
