It is clean, 'ibeautifulf' thriving, and friendly, It is an ideal communityf' with fine people, attractive homes. expandin,1l industries, beautiful parks, superior recreational facilities, and wonderful churches and schools. It is the cleanest, neatest. and prettiest town in Oklahoma. It is just the right size-not too large nor too small, XVhen I think of Ponca City I think of happiness and prosperity, of a town that is always improving. I like it here, and here is where I want to raise my family. Such pride in one's community is a tribute to those who founded Ponca City and to all who had the vision and the fortitude to make it what it is today. You have a rich heritage. and like the Athenian youth of long ago. you have the obligation to transmit this city. greater. better. and more beautiful than it was transmitted to you. I-IOM IER S.
