purchased the present school grounds.
The supreme court also turned down
the $4,000 bonds for paving street In
tersections and sidewalk crossings,
saving that inasmuch as streets were
not public utilities that these I'M
provements should be charged to the
quarter-block adjoining such intersec-
tions.
They also turned down the $2O,OOO
fire department bonds for the reason
that the bonds were called for the i'm
provement of the fire department, and
the court said the call was too broad.
II should have stated what said i'm
provements were for.
BY the way, want to say in this
connection that the present city ad-
ministration is in no way responsible
for the high school not being built.
The bonds can be issued any time and
will meet with ready sale. | under
stand that one or more members OF
the present board are against build
ing this high school building and l
think that you should see to 1t that ev-
cry man who goes on this new board is
in favor of building that high school
building. know that the schools In
this city are badly crowded and we
need this building.
The school board OF the city and
the superintendent and principals and
teachers deserve world of credit for
we have the very best schools OF any
city in the state.
Now let us be abreast of the other
cities of the state and have beauti
full and commodious high school build
ing. Something that will go along
with our magnificent court house and
new federal building.
We sold our bonds, the $4,000 ap
proved by the court for $177,54O,27, re
ceiving a higher price for our bonds
than Oklahoma City, Muskogee ant
other cities received for theirs.
How Bond Money Was Spent.
Now, how did we spend the bono
money? We built the septic tanks n
cost OF $4,000, one at the east out
fall OF the sanitary sewers and on'
at the west out-fall. These septi'
tanks We're designed by J. w. Make.
OF Houston, Texas, and they are thu
same as that constructed by him a
Marshall, Texas. They take the raw
sewage and convert 1t into water al
clear and odorless as spring waite
without any chemicals or expense t.
the city whatever. This has eliminat
ed all possibility of any further dam
age suits and no longer pollute thu
streams into which the sewers empty
Septic Tanks.
These septic tanks were built by

Sanitary Sewers.

Storm Sewers.
We enlarged the intake and storm
sewer at the corner of Caddo and
Paradise Alley at n COST of $4,000.
This was done by the engineers
office. This is the place that was
flooded in 1908 and caused all the
damage suits that were filed against
the city.
We also enlarged the intake and
storm sewer at + and Main streets
at a cost of $4,000, relieving the
flood conditions that existed during
heavy rains at that place.
We took over all the private lines
of sewers that had been put in by
operty owners with the understand
ing that the city would take them
over when they sold the sewer bonds.
Water Extensions.
Our water lines were extended un-
der contract by Stevens, Kennerly
