4 SQUARE DEAL. FOR
PUBLIC UTILITIES

of all the bills that come to you
on the first of the month which do
you pay least Willingly? Are not the
two that excite the most distrust the
gas bill and the electric-light bill?
There is an explanation somewhere
Of the lack of good will shown by
the average community toward the
public utility company that serves it
with light, heat and power. One rea.
son, We think, has never been fully
stated If the power and light com.
panies were owned and controlled by
one or two men, and named after peo-
pie, as the majority of our big enter
prises are. we would be apt TO have a
more friendly feeling toward them.

The average employe of the aver
age public utility knows that the

,0s,,,e;.n, Appliance. Cause Loss

Oklahoma City March 2S--lhelli-
cient appliances and careless nahaiins
by consumers are responsible ior the
loss of 55 per cent OF the natural gas
that is wasted. according TO testimony
before the corporation commission VI
Samuel Wyer of Columbus ONO, gas
engineering expert of national repu'
tation. Forty-four and nan per
cent of the waste is due to leakage
in transportation while only one-haii
of one per cent is lost through the
opening and blowing of gas wells IN
compliance with orders of the corpo'
ration commission.
The foregoing information was given
by Wyer in connection with a hearing
called upon the initiative of the cor
poration commission TO determine
whether amendments should be made
made to rule of the commission
adopted July /, 1917, requiring that
all gas well operators, between the
first and tenth of each month, must
take q guage of volume and rock pres
sure of all wells producing natural
gas and report 10 the commission.
Some operators have complained
that. in this process, gas is wasted
unnecessarily and that the purposes
Of the state would be served just
as well and less gas wasted If tho
rules were amended so as to require
blowing" Of the well only once every
two or three months instead Of every
month. They contend that opening
the wells to full capacity in this way
not only wastes gas but increases the
danger Of the we'll being flooded by
salt water.
One Of the chief objects in requiring
the blowing" Of gas wells is to de-
termine the full capacity in order TO
secure q correct guage Of what pro-
portion of the total volume Of the
flow is being taken and whether or
not the gas conservation laws OF the
state are being violated. After hear
ing evidence on both sides OF the
question the commission reserved u
decision to later date, The hearing
was informal.

METHODISTS PLAN
TO USE BROADWAY
CHURCH FOR MOVIES

In all probability Ardmore will have
another movie theatre before the middle
OF summer, if plans Of certain parties
who have become interested in the
proposition succeed.
At a recent meeting Of the board of
stewards of the Broadway Methodist
church the question as to the dsposi.
Hon of the property at the corner Of
broadway and B street was under dis
cussion when the matter Of converting
the present edifice into a moving pic
lure theatre was broached.
The congregation of the Broadway
Methodist church is erecting new
edifice at the corner of West Main and
Z street opposite Central Park, and
II was announced at the time the new
building was begun that the present
property would be put on the market,
Tut in view of future possibilities, the
Methodists have decided not 10 sell,
and the question of putting it TO some
paying use was brought up. when the
moving picture idea was suggested.
The proposition met with immediate
response, and one man stated that he
would take 1000 worth of stock in the
enterprise. and was followed by several
more who announced that they would
likewise take q substantial block Of
STOCK. one prominent member of the
church stated that the idea was to i'm.
mediately erect the ground floor Of
the new church on West Main street
which is to be OF reinforced concrete
and stone, and make it ready so that
services could be held there, convert
the Broadway church into a moving
picture theatre and take the profits
Of the enterprise and apply to the new
structure.
Detail plans are yet to be worked out
but II is said that the idea is popular
with every member of the church and
II is more than likely that they will be
carried out.
II would not require a great deal of
money TO convert the present church
into theatre he said, and he believes
that it would become one of the most
popular play houses in the city. The
expense OF installing a musical instru-
ment would not be necessary as there
is good organ already there and the
organ is very popular instrument in |
movie houses throughout the country.
The property at West Broadway and |
Z street is very valuable AT present, |
and will become more so when the Ma
sonic bodies of this city erect their
new 6.story building on the opposite
corner as is contemplated. For this
reason, the members OF the church
have decided to hold to it for a time,
as it is believed that it eventually will
be in the heart of the business district.
II present plans are carried out Ard
more will have seven moving picture
houses six for whites and one for col
ored people, the latter situated on
East Main street beyond the Santa Fe
tracks.
