Kker watch the chain reaction of a line of dominoes—
how a push exerted at one end finally winds up at the other
end of the line?
Industry dollars in an Oklahoma Community are like that
A dollar put in here goes through many hands prcniding
many other jobs and much other business before it is through
That's why Oklahoma communities want new industry A new
industry employing as many as 100 new workers--actually means
nearly '200 other additional jobs S-153600 additional personal
income dollars S3 16630 additional retail sales dollars in the
community
-
The Oklahoma Department of Commerce and Industry is
helping bring together communities that want industry—and
industry that wants communities 141' 10 new industries
have been brought to Oklahoma in the L-as year and a half
Some of the dollars they have brought into circulation may
be in your hands today

Dear Sirs:
I read an article in our local
newspaper (The Fresno Bee) yes-
terday about your paper It stated
that in one of your editions there
were 1133 names printed about

I lived in Weleetka as n child
over 20 years ago so of course
I was thrilled to read about it
in our paper
If possible I would like a copy
of the particular paper I mention-
ed There was no date but I hope
you'll know which one our paper
speaks of I would love to read
your paper to see if I recognize
any of the names
I am enclosing 20c to cover-
handling charges
Sincerely hoping your paper
the people of Weleetka the best
of luck and success I remain an
interested past resident of Weleet-
