Every citizen of Guthrie should ibe a Guthrie booster. Outlirie has .been a good town is a good town

reason you don't spend your money with Abell spend it with some other Guthrie merchant who advertises
his goods sufficiently to merit confidence. Don't send your money out cf town.
Every man whose business calls him to different towns of the state and outside of the state realizes
-that Guthrie is a good town. "We have so many things in Guthrie to he proud of our paved streets our
