RAMSEY -WILLINGHAM
URGE STOCKMEN TO
HOLD OPURE BREEDS

G. 4. Ramsey who has been in
New Mexico and Arizona, has re-
turned to Ardmore and has some
very glowing reports to make of the
country that he visited.
Mr.. Ramsey is interested in pure
bred dairy cattle and while away Wis
tied some fancy herds of Holsteins
that are the dominent strains in those
sections. He says he is deeper in
love with the Holstein than ever
since seeing some of the cattle out
there, and is well pleased to know
that he chose this breed when decid-
ing to engage in the dairy cattle busi-
ness.
The stock farm of Ramsey and Will
lingham west Of the city is the home
Of a very fancy bunch of Holstens,
and the owners are preparing to de-
velop the strain in Southern Okla
homa.
Ramsey and Willingham will have
some fancy head on exhibition at the
livestock show next week.
Glenwood farm situated one mile
west of the city is being rapidly de-
veloped into one of the best stock
farms in Southern oklahoma, and
Messers Ramsey and Willingham are
sparing no expense to this end. Mr..
Ramsey takes very active part in
the management of the farm. He
announces that they will strive in
every way possible TO improve their
herds of Holstein cattle and Poland
China hogs and urge every farmer in

flee to engage in his present business
and has made success in his late
field of endeavor.
Mr.. Dyke consented to make this
race after he had been urged by his
friends to do so, but he realizes that
in serving them. He has no promises
to make for his future guidance other
than to do his duty by the people
Of Ardmore to the best OF his ability
he is qualified and is recognized as
one of the best business men in Ard

ice. II transmutes kindly desires into
accomplished facts. 1t is training
school in unselfishness, where per-
sonal gain is subordinate to public
good. Rotary values men for what
they are. more than for what they
have, and for what they can be, more
than for what they are. Rotary well
comes a vision of need, and views
service as a privilege to be sought
not as a burden to be avoided
Rotary never side-steps a re-
sponsibility or passes the buck to
the other fellow. TO the Rotarian life
is an investment that must yield di-
vidends that are better than dollars
and are not measured in commerce
He never knocks good thing or
praises a bad thing. His city is the
best in the country, and his country
the best in the world. He is an all
wool yard wide American, Canadian
or whatever his nationality. He has
an eye for a neighbor's need, a hand
trained to help, foot used TO paths
of helpfulneSs and mercy and a heart
for true men, good women and little
children.
Rotary may not be religion. but
ii has woven into the fabric of its
helpful activity that which even reli-
gion is but as sounding brass and
tinkling cymbal Faith, Hope and
Love
"lf you We're to ask me for my
own definition of the true spirit OF
Rotary | would tell you that it is
when the spirit Of man meets the
spirit of man, and together they COM
mune with the spirit of God. out of
that communion is born the spirit Of

unwieldly as to membership. You
must bear in mind that as a. repre-
sentative of your own particular voca-
ton you represent in Rotary your
vocation in the community, and that
is the message that should go from
the Rotary Club to the community NJ
large, A representative in Rotary
represents the community-not him
self individually. A number OF men,
bers engaged in one line Of business
could not possibly combine in con-
trolling Rotary; the individual is ben
efitted by the Rotary plan.
Growth of Rotary
Rotary became international at Du-
luth. 1912. At that time, Winnipeg
had organized a Rotary Club and sent
a representative TO Duluth. AT that
convention they received an applica-
ton from the Rotary Club in Eng
land for membership in the Interna-
tional Rotary which came into being
at Duluth. 1912, supplanted the Ma
tional Association.
"In 1910 there We're 16 Rotary
clubs, ! 800 members.
I'm 1916 there were 250 Rotary
clubs, $1,000 members.
"In 1920 there We're GOO Rotary
clubs, $4,000 members.
In 1921 there were 500, with APP
proximately $1,000 members.
''rhere is one thing about Rotary
that no other organization can boast.
81. Il, fsy.I nf
one club TO date has become an in
active club-not one charter has been
recalled.
I'm the matter Of attendance no
other organization can compete with
the Rotary in the percentage OF at
tendance at its regular functons--and
there are clubs of 100 and $50 mem
bers in regular attendance. Attend
ance records show a percentage OF
so per cent, ard there is one club on
the Pacific, with 60 members, which
boasts an attendance of one hundred
per cent for the past several months.
'1n April, 1917, the Rotary idea
struck Ardmore, and one of its hon
ored members is with us today
Charles Ringer-who had the origi-
nal thought of an Ardmore Rotary.
The club now has Is charter mem
bers. 60 active members, and four
honorary members.
81 have spoken OF the organization,
Of the platform, the Code Of Ethics
Now l should like to speak Of its
spirit. l think it would be a good
idea for each Rotaran to read the
platform at least once Il month and
get the spirit of the organization
Spirit Of Rotary
"As to the spirit-without wishing
to detract in any way whatever from
the glory of the great and good men
responsible for the organization OF
Rotary. | do maintain that they did
not originate the spirit. 1t is my
opinion and belief that the spirit OF
Rotary is more than two thousand
years old. think it was born in the
stable at Bethlehem when Christ came
TO save the world. IL was that match

about the world preaching the Divine
