THE BEAUTIFUL CITY OF TULSA

here is the temperament OF our peo-
ple. their freedom from the chains
of traditional customs, Their readiness
To adopt a good thing when they are
convinced of its value
The mayor pointed through his
window to where heavy clouds of
black smoke were crowding from the
chimney of big hotel, obsculng
many Of the buildings and much of
the summer sky.
THAT is not only offensive and un-
healthful," " he said, "it does not only
make clean buildings grmy. lt's
wastetul. If the man stoking that
furnace knew his work and the hotel
installed some rather inexpensive
lnpchanical contri,ance, the chimney
wonld not smoke at alR That SCOT
drift, into the hotel itself and be-
>mirches everything. 1t increases the
expense of keeping the hotel clean,
One day that hotel man will wake up
to the fact that he is losing money
by not being clean and the nuisance
he creates will cease.
1--WE all like To think that virtue
is It's own reward and that cleanliness
is next To oodlineSS, but il dreSn I do
us any harm to reflect that vice is the
expensive folly of fools and that
mcleanlness is wasteful in one form
or another. We look for the dollar
mark ON our compensatlons too often,
perhaps, in this country, but the dol
lars saved by civic cleanliness are
dollars earned most honestly.
"The men who breathe pure air
wo.k better and produce more than
those who inhale poisonous vapors.
The traffic of great city carries more
freight and passengers if II is well
re .ulated than if allowed TO strug-
Gle ON in disorder, An orderly meet
ing will transact more business than
Iabble And clean city grows
faster and becomes more wealthy
than dirty one
Il tell you," said the mayor EN-
phatically, "that before my term Is
up well have this fine home of ours
transformed. The people will look
back in amazement ON the place as
it is even today, The reform will not
end in the days of good order and
effective sanitation; its result will
be psychological, something energiz-
ing to the minds of the people. To
walk in the future through clean
Kansas City will be as good tonic
as cold bath. There's magic about
those words. clean and wholesome,
isn't there?" he laughed, "and they
have thrown a spell over me. When
! walk down town in the morning !
feel like man with big bath
sponge wanting to wash things down
and polish them up, and I'm not
ashamed of il, either. Pm happier
than the reform mayor who has to
fight Doodle because ! punish nobody
and make friends everywhere. We
all want 10 make Kansas City orderly
and clean and we're finding out how
to do it,.

Aldrich Library Matter All
lowed to Rest
ACTION TAKEN LAST NIGHT
1t Is Hoped That BY Next Summer Y
Enough Money Will Be Secured
to Allow the Use of
Granite. ss A@


AT d meeting Of the Aldrich Public
library trustees, held last night, 1t was
decided to postpone the construction
OF the Library building until next sum
iner This action was taken for sey-
leral reasons, one Of which is that it
would be impossible to have the build
ing enclosed before cold weather, with
such late start. Another reason il
that there is very strong desire OH
tile part Of the public that the build
ing be OF granite, which, at this time,
is impossible. And finally. the commit
tee OF business men, to whom was given
the work Of revising plans so AS to
lessen the cost and still allow OF the
use of granite, reported that they found
with the revision OF plans the money
available was still short of the required
sum. The committee reported that they
thought it advisable to postpone the
construction until next year, which opin-
ion coincided with the idea Of the tIus-
tees. Therefore the latter decided to let
the matter rest for the present.
This committee. which undertook the
revision Oh the plans to lessen the cost,
expressed the belief that by next. SUM
mcr there would be enough money sc-
cured to insure the use of all-grauite
in the granite in the exterior construc-
tiop. They also stated that there would
be quite general dissatisfaction if the
building were to be constructed of brick.
As previously stated, the amount avail
able now is in the neighborhood Of $45-
900, while about $4,000 more Is needed
70 build Of Barre granite, according to
the original plans.
