Photograph used for a story in the Daily Oklahoman newspaper. Caption: "Among the hundreds of settlers in the Kiowa-Comanche county who attended the recent celebration of Lawton's thirty-third anniversary were this group of Lawton 1901'ers who settled in that city when it was just a tent town, and they have lived there ever since. Water was sold by the barrel or by the drink in those days. The celebration was sponsored by the Lawton Business and Professional Women's club. The program consisted of story telling, old-time singing, a basket dinner and a number of contests that were popular 33 years ago.
