Almost identical twins, they confuse even their fellow employees. Mrs. Jessie Belle Dickson, left, has been employed in the land since 1929, Mrs. Jennie Delle Dahlgren has worked in the secretary of state's office since 1920."

[Photograph 2012.201.OVZ001.3962]

Photograph used for a story in the Daily Oklahoman newspaper. Caption: "The campaign to spray Oklahoma City with DDT started off with a roar Monday when two planes in tight formation "fogged" the downtown area. The ships piloted by Norman Blake and Ralph Fehring, made five passes over the city, streaming long tails of vapor. The stunt was dreamed up by the Junior Chamber of Commerce, sponsors of the spraying campaign. The gag worked too wello. Jaycees had hoped citizens would believe the planes were spraying DDT fog, instead of smoke. People apparently fell for it, for they sat on the checkbooks Monday. Jaycee headquarters closed the day with only $35 in collections from merchants in the 42-block downtown area to pay for actual extermination spray planned Thursday. Cost will run about $35 a block. Other sections of the city, where no plane-borne smoke drifted, were more co-operative. More than 80 blocks of the northwest section of town, divided along Western and NW 23, were lined up for neighborhood spraying this week by mobile units."
