What Some Congress-
men Can Do, When
If They Try

Paul w. Loucks, secretary of
the Coolidge Chamber of Com
merce, points out the fact that:
What some Congressman can do
when and il they try is well shown
in an article which he presented
to the local office from the Lind
say News of Lindsay, Oklahoma,
under date of Friday. August 8,
1910, in which the following ap-
peared: plan BEING CONFLICT
ED FOR POST OFFICE" Accord
ing to word received here from
Washington, d. c., by Postmaster
Milan Luton, final details are be-
ing worked out for the beginning
of construction on the Lindsay
Postoffice. Although definite time
for beginning construction has not
been released, Luton believes that
actual work will begin in October.
Approval of the title in the land
has been made by the Department
of Justice Delay in getting clear
title to the land was responsible
for the wait before construction
could be started. Lindsay is in
fortunate position relative to its
postal service. Although only a
town of 1900, it has a second-class
postoffice. This puts Lindsay on
par in mail service with such
towns as Purcell MARROW, Durant,
and Hugo. Reason for the high
rating of the local postoffice is
due to the large receipts. A post
office is classed according to the
receipts it takes in during the
calendar year. During 1889 the
local postoffice totaled $9.524.53 in
receipts. Two years ago Lindsay
received high honor when the
postoffice here was awarded a
gold cup for having the most air
mail sent out during a certain
period, than any other town in the
state, according to population.
Mr.. Loucks then Immediately
contacted Mr.. Boone the local
Post Master, and asked for data
and receipts for Coolidge and
found the following results. While
Lindsay, Oklahoma, showed a
population of 1900, Coolidge has
better than $500. The gross re-
ceipts, for Lindsay in 1889 were
s9,524.53, whereas Coolidge had
gross receipts amounting to s12,-
371.60. Upon further investigation
it appeared that there was no
particular need for a Federal Post
Office Building in Lindsay, Okla
home, for any other purpose than
that of postal service whereas in
Coolidge there is considerable need
for other agencies, such as The
National Monuments which coulo
use about 1852 square feet Or the
equivalent of Is rooms, other

Rotary Club Holds
Interesting Meeting

The Coolidge Rotary Club met in
a regular session Thursday, with
Matt Dodge, president, presiding.
The program was somewhat diff
ferent than usual due to the fact
that part of the program was
shifted to the San Carlos Theatre
where Art Kempton, who had the
program in charge, presented two
features "King Cotton" and "Ha-
waiian Rythems" which was i'm
mensly enjoyed by all. The feature,
King Cotton, was very worth
while educationally because of the
valuable points it depicted concern
ing the growing of cotton in this
vicinity and surrounding communi-
ties.
During t h luncheon Phil
Claridge gave very interesting
sketch of his early life. Mr..
Claridge stated he was born in
the upper Gila Valley where he
was educated as a youngster and
merited a scholarship in the Uni
versity of Southern California.
After graduating there he attended
the University of Arizona and
completed his course in law, and
took the examination for the Bar
in June, 1885. He stated that the
longest period of his life was from
the day of his graduation until he
took the examination to practice
law. Since then, Mr.. Claridge has
resided in Coolidge because he
felt that Coolidge was the fastest
growing town in the country and
afforded a better place for a begin
ner than any other town which he
knew of.
Visitors were three Rotarians
from the Florence Club, Richard
E. Fulton, Morris G. Mann, and the
Reverend Earl Ward. Other
visitors were Clifford Cemans and
Robert E. Webb.
