LAKEF0R CITY
Section 2, Northwest of
Town Offers Fine Site for
Construction and
Many Benefits.

Among expressions of the various
citizens in connection with the con
struction of a new lake, by number
of Ardmore citizens, as a combined
pleasure resort and an emergency wat
er supply, Kirk Dyer stated as fol.
lows:
Several years ago, when an addi-
tional water supply was being
sought, in connection with Chamber
of Commerce work, he, with others,
. inspected the dam site in section two,
that a dam constructed to a heighth
mile northwest Of our present city
lake, and from observation taken with
instruments at that time. they found
that a dam constructed TO a hcghth
Of IS to 40 feet would. if filled. cover
from l40 to 100 acres. The country
Of the abutting formations indicated
that dam could easily be con.
structed there which would hold water.
Surrounding country is very at
tractive. but at that time, owing 10
the scarce rainfall it was thought
best to go TO the mountains for our
additional water supply, and no fur
ther attention was given to the propo-
sition of constructing a dam at this
point. The location is\very attractive,
and the creation Of lake at that
point should be encouraged for many
reasons; it would be a pleasure resort,
and be utilized for hunting, fishing and
bathing, and it is generally admitted
that the more lakes or other water
bodies surrounding a place, the more
moisture the air contains which is an
aid to vegetation.
The drainage area tributary TO this
lake is more than one-half greater
than the drainage area at the city
lake. With a lake at this point, filled
with water, would also be an insurance
against a possible water shortage in
Ardmore. At the time the present city
lake was constructed this site was
I taken under consideration, but owing
to its nearness to Ardmore, the site OF
the present city lake was chosen This
is a wonderful lake site as ma
Lural ridge where the proposed dam
Is 10 be constructed is only 125 feet
at the base. This lake completed would
be larger than our present city lake.
