■By R. J. D-
I V/OU'VE heard the expression,
I "generous to a fault.” Well, I’m
[ beginning to believe that the in-
I dustrial. business and professional
I men of El Reno are almost in that
I class. That is, I believe their
I generosity is subjecting them to

And most of them realize It, but
I os several have told me, they Just

As a result, local solicitations
