ARE YOU GUILTY?
COMES TO ARDMORE

Are You Guilty?" the big morality
picture which appears at the Princess
theater Friday and Saturday is said
by critics to be one of the most pow
erful cinema sermons ever made. It
is said to be picture which teaches
the principles of right living as no
film has ever done and in cities where
it has been shown prior to it's Ard
more booking it has been heartily en-
dorsed by the ministry.
The following article regarding the
picture was clipped from the Duncan,
Okla, Banner, December 80:
THE Rev. l.. G. Moroney. pastor of
the FIRST Baptist church. reviewed the
picture playing at the Palace theater
today at a special showing Tuesday.
Upon request of f.. ID. Baldwin. in
charge Of the picture, for an opinion
on it, the Rev. Moroney made this
statement:
1T is worth anyone's while to see
the picture. IL portrays the suffering
and sorrow that always follows de
bauchery-the sins Of the father are
visited upon the children. While the
picture shows the beginning of sinful
living il does ii in such a way as not
to be offensive to anyone. 1t gives
me great pleasure to commend the
picture for the great lesson it teaches

Dyer Tells HouU the
Issue Funds Will Be
Used on Extensions

City Manager Dyer this morning
gave out the following statement re-
garding the use of funds to be derived
from the sale of improvement bonds
Of $500, 900 if the issue carries on
January 81:
Regarding the purpose Of the pro
posed $500, 900 water bond issue, upon
inquiry OF the city officials, the fol-
lowing synopsis of the situation, is
given
Among requirements made by Fl.
j. Clark, chief engineer of the State
Rating Bureau were, first; that an
additional water supply be secured
by the construction Of a dam at
Hickory Creek, for impounding stor-
age water sufficient to augment the
supply gathered and held by our pres
ent city lake. Also, that larger
pipe line be constructed from the
pump station to connect with the
present water main Also, that inter.
secting mains should be provided about
the present area of our fire limit
Certain improvements were suggested
at the standpipe Also various i'm.
provements and changes about the
pumping plant.
ITO meet all of these requirements
from estimates and incomplete data,
the $500. 900 bond issue for water
work purposes was decided upon, to
be applied approximately as follows:
Lands for reservoir purposes and c-n-
Str1pti0p 1f dam at IIinLnY.Nr rrnalr
$500 for constructing 16-inch
water line from the pump station to
the city limits, and intersecting mains
$4,000 for various changes and i'm
provements about the pump station
and standpipe $4,000.
"As stated before, these estimates
are based on incomplete data. which
will be changed somewhat when work.
ed out in detail, but one thing must
be impressed upon the property own
ers Of Ardmore, and that is the inn
perative necessity Of providing for a
greater water supply for Ardmore
without delay.
THE records Of the city water office
show an increase of from 80 10 40
per cent. in the business transacted
in 1921 over the same months in 1920.
and it has been difficult for the city
to fully meet the demands for water
extensions, during the past six months.
who are the legal voters at this
election? has been asked. The law
states that only taX.paying property
owners are permitted to vote in a
bond election, and T. carry, a ma
jority Of the votes cast, must be for
the bond issue.
