WHY WE HAVE THIS CLUB
It is part of the business of our Bank to encourage thrift and to teach economy.
In no better way can we render service to all of I he people of this city and community
than by giving them a definite plan for saving their money. Our Christmas Club is just
such a plan. „ , ...
To make "Savers" not "Spenders" out of our boys and girls.
To enable everyone, young and old, to become acquainted with the banking busi-
ness so that when thev have monev they will know its value and how to take care of it.
To give you a "Bank Connection" and show you how our Bank can help you in fi-
nancial matters.
YOU WILL RECEIVE
A CLUB FOR THE BABY AND THE BIG BUSINESS MAN
All parents want their children to save their monev so that when they are grown
up they will have the money necessary to make a "start." ,
Our Christmas Club is the ideal method for this purpose.
Big business men realize that there may come a time when some READY MONEY
would come in very handy, and there is no easier way of having this ready money than
by sytematic deposits in our Christmas Club. It will not injure your business or cause
any inconvenience to lay aside some money each week—and when you need it—you have
it. Every business man knows this is true.

STATE "TB" SANITORIUM
NEARLY COMPLETED
By Dr. A. R. Lewis, State Health |
Commissioner
Buidlings at Clinton and Boley will
soon be ready for occupancy, but they
fall shot of need.
If you had a barn just partly bull-
ed and your money gave out, would
you try to get more funds or would
you abandon the job, thereby losing
much of the effort and money already
expended ?
It is highly probable that your
good business judgment would prompt
you to get the necessary aid. Figur-
atively speaking, this is the position
of the State Health Board in the
matter of the state "TB" sanitorium.
The two sanitorium under construc-
tion are practically completed but
more ward buildings are needed in
which to house the patients.
The jnitial appropriations allowed
for only two institutions wth 100-bed
capacity and one with 50. Funds
for one of these will not be avail-
able until the fiscal year, 1921. Even
when all three are finished and in
operation this will mean a total of
only 250 beds. Contrast this number
with the estimated 3,000 deaths each
years from tuberculosis and the 40,-
000 active cases and the inadequacy
of the provision is apparent.
Since the State Health Board has
undertaken to care for the tubercu-
lar sick, it has become a mecca for
letters of inquiry from tuberculars.
From the large number of these re-
ceived, it is evident there are many
more cases in the state than anyone
had ever dreamed . A typical letter
just received says;
"If my two girls, age 18 an 6, have
tuberculosis (and I'm afraid they
have, for they are losing weight and
coujrh some, they contracted it from
me before I realized I had it I have
taken every precaution to protect
my family since fay case has been
pronounced consumption."
Many ases in the incipient stage
tan be cured but treatment of those
requires more ward room than the
?tate now has. The State Board of
Affairs has stretched the original ap-
propriation as far as it will go—
more funds are needed and will be
asked at the coming legislative ses-
sion. Will you lend your influence?

A LETTER FROM MOTHER
GOOD SERVICES AT METHODIS1
CHURCH SUNDAY
I just received a letter
From the one that I love best,
It's from my dear old mother,
[Who is living way out West.
Just you listen and I'll read it
| Yes, I'll read you every line,
j For it makes me rather homesick
I In this little heart of mine.
I
My dearest child, how are you?
Well and doing fine I pray.
Why don't you write more often
While you're so far away?
For your mother here is lonely
And we miss you more each day.
Dear child, come back to mother,
Come back, my child, and stay.
God bless you my child you know
Yoru mother would do anythinc for
you,
Good-bye, don't forget to write often,
I enjoy, and long, for the letters from
you.
Dear reader I have finished,
Don't it make you homesick? Say!
For the mother you've neglected
All the while you've been away?
—Billie Burnett
All departments of the Sunday
School are doing excellent work. A
good program for Christmas exercis-
es for the children will be put on.
Rev, Thomison preached a fine ser-
mon on "Christian Education" at the
morning service, and a fair amount
ci monsy was collected for the Meth-
odist College at Oklahoma City.
The church was crowded for the
evening services which were of an
evangelistic character. The orches-
tra, under the direction of Prof.
Brown, of the O. M. A., furnished
especially good music. Two persons
cai>-e to the altar eyidencing a de-
sia*e for Christian life.
On account of the bad weather the
drive for the children's books that
was to have been made Tuesday
morning will be postponed until Mon-
day morning, December 13th.
The J. M. Davis brick building on
Third and Wichita is progressing
nicely. When it is completed it will
house the E. E. North Wholesale Co.
PEOPLE TO HAVE A REAL
TREAT—BATTTS
The people of Claremore are tp

is Wm. Sterling Battis, the Charies
Dickens impersonator, who conies to j
the high school auditorium this even-

auspices of the Claremore Commer-
cial Club.
His special feature is "Life Por-
trayals,' of the presentation of Dick-
ens' characters in complete costume,
with appropriate monologues adapted
from the books in which each char-1
ucter appears. For the past ten
years Mr. Battis has been a stand- j
aid Lyceum and Chautauqua attrac- i
tion, covering every state in the i
Union and Canada.
The people of Claremore are of-
fered this number at the small cost I
of 50 cents. The entertainment will j
begin promptly at 8 o'clock. The;
publii is urged to give the attrac- j
tion liberal patronage.
YOUR SCHOOL MAY WIN
THE BOOK PRIZE
What Public School in Oklahoma j
would like to add 25 good books to i
its library? Or, not having a library, j
what school would like to start with
2"> volumes of the best literature?
Some rural school or grade school
in Oklahoma is going to get 25 books
and they are not going to cost the
school a cent. The books are going
to be given away by the STATE LI-
BRARY COMMISSIO. (This is a de-
partment of the state, devoted to the
education of the people through books
for everybody and maintained by
State money particularly for thosp
who do not have access to City li-
braries.)
Here's the way to get the books:
On or before January 1, 1921, send
to the State Library Com mission.
State Capitol, a 500-word article on
the "Use of the Traveling Library."
The article may be written by the
teacher or the pupils; a;id more than
one may be sent. Every student in
the school may send one if they de-
sire. But only rural and grade
schools are allowed to enter the con-
test.
Three disinterested persona will be
selected to act as judges in all arti-
cle* sent in and the one considered
the best by them will receive the
prize of 25 good books.
Is j'our school preparing to enter
the contest? Many have already.
Postage of the box of books is all
it costs. Send for one and then your
school will know the "Uee of the
Traveling Library" and can write
from first-hand experience on the sub-
ject. Your article may win the
prize. The State Library
will furnish any information.

You can get more eggs and make more
money by feeding hens more material for
making whites of eggs. No grain feed con-
tains anything like enough white-making
material (protein). As a result, many yolks are
formed iri the hen's body that are never laid.
Purina Poultry Chows
fed together, make more eggs because they
supply the scientific balance of all the elements
a hen requires to produce the
highest number of whitesand
yolks of which she is capable.
Puiina Poultry Chows are sold
under an iron-bound guaran-
tee of More Eggs or Money
