WHY NOT BUILD?

LIKE the first tiny rvuets OF water released by the
rays OF an early spring from the frozen
streams OF dreary winter comes indications here and
there that better times the way following as
they WILL long, weary season OF depression frozen
credits, economic tie-up and throttled business
great period of reconstruction is showing say
all economic prophets That their predictions are
not amiss is attested by the fact that every business
man has already felt the quickened pulse OF bust
ness. Better times are just about here
America is great, vigorous youth and youth
recuperates much more quickly than does age While
other war-stricken nations slowly knit back to
health America has just about regained its lost
strength and is ready to spring anew to the great
pastme OF progress.
And the full effect OF this newer and grander day
is only for those cities who take advantage OF the
opportunity who grasp achievement by the forelock
yea who literally drag achievement through their
gates and into the midst OF their own particular
marts.
All will probably be incidentally benefited by
business reconstruction, but those who get the
greatest benefit those who porepare for it and
who are literally on their toes when it comes.
And what is true a generality is true in the
particular OF Ardmore To really expand become
greater city, Ardmore has got to grid up its loins
and move out.
There is no under the sun why Ardmore
shouldnt have Zo,OOO population two years from now.
In the first place Ardmore is in the vre progress
i've southwest, and industry is slowly but surely
moving westward. In the second place Ardmore is
in Oklahoma, state that is destined to eclipse in
the next Is years what it has done in the past Is
In the third place, Ardmore is located in magnifi-
cent section OF the state, the OF great en-
pire, lar enough removed from Dallas and Okla

conditions-with the groundwork for big city al
ready laid this is the Ardmore OF the present
Oil fields alone won't construct a city here All
the other natural advantages will not unless the cNi
zens unite with the single aim OF building better
It's here for us people-et's go get it.
The Ardmoree would like to see the Chamber OF
Commerce open up in earnest with a campaign ior
volunteer city builders who would be willing tc
contribute OF their time and money toward such al
end
Ardmore has done well in years gone by, bu

That has made us very popular Tor

these trips because we can't possibly
afford a vacation SO soon after our
honeymoon.
Jack has tried to show me that these
week end excursions cost as much as

stands his share by taking the checks
at restaurants and hotels.

Berton BraleyS Daily Poem
JUST FOLKS

The cold and cruel city
Where crowds go rushing by,
II has no ruth or pity,
Or so the cynics cry;
The .hardfaced people brush you
Unkndly from their path,
The stone walls seem to crush you,
The traffic roars in wrath.
And yet these hardened faces
Are only masks they wear
Within the market places
And on the thoroughfare
The crowd that rushes blindy
Along the city street
At heart is just as kindly
AS any folk you'll meet.
When city people know you
(And readily they wilD
You find that they can show you
A nature far from chill;
Your woes won't go unheeded,
You will not pine alone,
They'll help when help is needed,
AS every test has shown
Beneath the village steeple,
Beneath the city spires,
People are simply people,
Novel by the same desires;
And hearts that melt with pity
And know what love is worth
Are frequent in the city
As any place on earth.

CONCRETE ARTERIES
BY DIR. X. ii. BISHOP

RE you remodeling your artery walls
and turning them into concrete?
OF course not, you will instantly re-
join, perhaps a little Indignantly.
But if you are a molern business
man, always in a hurry, bolting your
meals, neglecting exercise, regular
habits. and worrying a great deal
then ten to one you are gradually
hardening your arteries. turning them
to stone. so to speak.
You can easily tell whether you are
acquiring hardening of the arteries
by having your blood pressure taken.
