The statement of Louis Barthou, head
OF the French delegation, to the Asso.

France cannot discuss disarmament at
Genoa will probably remain the basis
of the French attitude on this question
despite attempts of the Russian dele.

raise the issue.

Early History of Ardmore Told
When Pioneer Citizens Gathered
As Guests of Rotarians Today
Jolliest Meeting Of Club
When Old Settlers Dis
played Again the Spirit
that caused City to Grow

DIR. Walter Hardy came near. exceed.
ing the speed limit at the Rotary club
Wednesday at the Old Settlers session
when he told of the one camp between
here and Mud Creek when he first
moved here. This camp belonged to
Buck Gardenhire, the cattle king, and
he alleged that all the unbranded cat.
tie belonged to "Nncle Buck" But when
Buck Gardenhire got the floor he told
some good ones on DR.. EIrdy. And so
the meeting wnt and there was the jol-
liest time the Rotary club ever had.
j. r. Pennington told of the days
when Charley Anderson was in the
banking and insurance business. HIS
bank consisted of an iron safe located
in furniture store. But out of that
beginning grew the First National Bank
of today which stands as the achieve.
ment of Charles l.. Anderson.
Begged for Money
In the old days Sidney Suggs was ap.
pointed by the Commercial club to keep
the roads in good condition and he in
his talk today related now he begged
money from merchants and built roads
and bridges and kept the cotton coming
to Ardmore. 1t was this spirit of the
early day fellows that built Ardmore.
Too much credit cannot be given these
men who did things in those days ana
the fact that Ardmore is the largest city
between Oklahoma City and Ft Worth
Is not due to natural advantages so
much as to the spirit manifested by the
old timers.
DIR. j. +. Young, who, in point OF resi-.
dence is the Oldest minister in Carter
county, related some interesting things
concerning early day churches and
schools. When he first preached here
there were very few church edirices
and he told of the growth of churches
the growth of membership and the en-.
hancement of the value of church prop.

who wore out the sidewalks OF New
York delivering packages at salary
Of $3.50 week and his is an example
OF the spirit manifested by the boys
who came here in an early day and
who are responsible for the growth OF
this city.

the meeting Were Rueben Dallas, Chls.
Anderson, Porter Staples, Bill Roberts,
Bud Conlee, Arley Young. Bib Spragins.

The three.minute Rotary talk was
made by Mayor Hefner and he ex.
plained the object of Rotary to the visl.
tors and stated that every good progress.
sive man was Rotarian at heart whe.
ther he was in membership or not.
AS n result of the interest that has
been stirred up by this session of the
Rotary club there is talk now of having
an old settlers reunion which will be
held as soon as the spring rains are over
so that a date can be set which will not
likely be disturbed by the weather con,
