CLUB INSTALLED AT
REGULAR MEETING
CHAMBER OF COMMERCE
At the regular . weekly luncheon of
the Lions club held yesterday at the
Chamber of Commerce rooms O. C.
Lasher was duly Installed as presi
dent. Mr. Lasher announced the elec-
tion of George Poulter as secretary.
Lion Ed Sandlln the retiring presi-
dent presided nt the opening of the
meeting and following the introduc-
tion of guests made a brief address
referring to the work of the past year
and his appreciation for the co-operation
afforded him. He then intro-
duced Lion Lasher who was accorded
a veritable ovation.
Mr. Lasher made a splendid talk
the keynote of which was sounded In
the statement that "one does not Join
the Lions club to get something out
of it but one Joins the Lions club
to put something Into It and to put
something Into the community.
'JThe slogan of the Lions club since
its organization Is 'Service' nnd
'service' In the real sense Is what the
Lions club stands for. It Is n mis-
taken Idea when one Joins a rlub
thinking that he will get 'something
out of it.'
loyally Greatest Requisite
"Loyalty" Mr. ' Lasher continued
"is . one of the greatest requisites to
tho success of any organization and
ono of the first things I will nsk on
your president Is to be loyal enough
to your club to give yourself to It at
least one hour every week. Attend
the regular luncheon sessions.
"Another thing boost your club
boost your town. When I get to the
place where I think some other place
Is better than Ardmore I will move
to that place. I will not live In a
town and criticise It; I will not be
a member of a club and pull It down
criticise my fellow workers I will ge!
out If I cannot give something to It.
"Our greatest pleasure should be In
doing something for our city. Doing
something for the benefit of the com-
munity In which we live is the object
of the club and- must be the object
of the Individual.

In concluding his talk Mr. Lasher
took occasion to refer to the drive

OVER TWENTY THOUSAND )
TELEPHONE STATIONS
Have been added in Oklahoma since January 1 1919.
Notwithstanding difficulty in providing equipment we have added in the
State of Oklahoma in the past 19 months more telephones than there are in
the combined cities of Sapulpa Enid Okmulgee and Shawnee.
Even in times when telephone equipment was plentiful and quickly obtain-
able and the demands for our service were normal we would have been proud
of such an unusual development. Under present conditions it is by far the big-
gest job we have ever done. ' But yet applications are being received faster than
we can provide for them; and today we have
OVER FIVE THOUSAND
Applications Awaiting Completion
Present indications are that it will be many months before we shall be able
to provide for all the new telephone service that is desired. Meanwhile we
will continue to secure all the equipment possible and use the resourcefulness
of our engineers to provide substitutes for that which is unobtainable.
We are counting upon the people of Oklahoma to recognize that under
existing conditions we are doing our best to first protect their existing service
and then to provide for additional service as promptly as possible.
