It was upon this principle Of CO.
operation and harmony of action that
the foregoing work was accomplish
| ed, and it is this idea which it is
seeking to diffuse throughout tho
community. It was one OF the ear
llcst bodies formed in Tulsa follow
ing the real beginning OF the city
few years back, and It has during
the Intervening years Of growth occu-
pied the foremost rank In those
forces and interests which have
been promotive of a greater Tulsa.
with such a club in existence,
there is no wonder that the city IS
forging ahead and will continue TO
forge ahead as long as the club ls
able to have as efficient officers rs
they have had during the past few
years. Some criticism has been
made against the club for not having
all its business made spublic, this has
been impossible, however, as there
are several cities who are watchlnb
| Tulsa's expansion with jealous eyes
and trying to get some Of Tulsa's In
dustrles. After losing one industry,
however. the policy OF not making
items OF interest public until after
contamination was adopted, with
very good results for the city Any
citizen, however. can keep himself in
formed Of what is going on, as each
month at the members meeting
which is held every third Friday Of
the month, report Of the months
! business Is read by the secretary.
! The club is doing good work and 1t Is
to the interest OF every citizen to as
slst the club by becoming members,
II you are not one. and be one to
make a Greater Tulsa.
! c. A. Sanderson Is now secretary
| Of the club. Tireless In his efforts,
unmindful of personal interests when
the interest of the city are to be con-
sidered. he has labored with unre-
| lenting zeal in the interests Of Tulsa
To him is due the credit for the vast
amount Of statistical matter which
has been compiled and spread
throughout the country. and which
has had much to do with dispellins
the prevalent opinion that Tulsa is
what many consider a mushroom"
