The big question in Tulsa today is
Was the Kendall Campaign sue
cess" In answering, 1t viii not be
attempted to explain away the fact
that Tulsa has not to date subscribed
the 100000 needed for kendalls en-
lurgemeUt and equipment. Some
phases of che situation are so inter-
esting, however. that they may be
touched upon. The big clock registers
$4,000. Why not 100000 and "A
margin, say OF $4,000 more?
Everyone who has been to Ken
dalls headquarters and looked over
the daily report on the big 20 foot
beard has remarked the same thing ::
Say. it would have been easy. II the
200 men asked for had given you
three or four days" Does the board
show that to be the. truth? Take "A
look at 1t. Take j. NJ, Halls team
that work ed only one week and at no
time had five men working for even
one whole day, Yet the team turned In
SS, 3S2 the first six days OF the cam.
paign Two weeks, without any i'm
petus which would have come with "A
large number of men working, would
have given the team total of $6764,
yssIthea-ieam half or less than half,
of the number OF men required.
Twenty teams would have made II
$4,000 Now look again. Perhaps
The one team that did work every
day with two divisions was the Jor-
dan team. Their total Is $6,014. And
all told. the Jordan team never had
ten men. Twenty teams that were
willing to grind away for the two
weeks could have raised the 500, 900.
A. L. Murphy, mostly single handed,
turned in $3,562 on seven days work.
Barnes and team, on seven days
work, turned IN $3,3S2. Berry and
team reported five different days, ST.
2O7. Renders team reported seven
different days. s1,712. Coles team,
or rather Mr., Cole. single handed, re-
ported. for portion of two days
work, 1857. The same is true of 9TH
er teams. Captain Connor, $512: Cap
tain West, $2327; Morley, $1.375; Cor
don. s1,272 Steiner, $1,G02; and Ha-
yer. $4,000.
One Team Finished.
But one team shows ten days work
and that is team No. 3, captained by
+. b. Gordon How was 1t. you ask,
that so few men. not sixty. worked
in the campaign? That the required
number could have raised the $780,
600 in any two days Of the campaign
all of the men who worked now
claim to be true to the facts of the
campaign, First. four leaders among
the men were taken out Of the cam
paign by death of loved ones. J. r.
Cole, sister; j. NJ Hall, his son,
Hugh; Clipson. his baby, and the
bookkeeper. Arthur Hendren. lost his
father That Tulsa Is a busy place
no one will deny. Many of these
leaders We're called out Of town sew
eral times on important business
that could not be put off.
Many men We're tied up in town and
could not get out
What does that all prove. Kendall
college can and Will get the 500, 900. |
Certainly II is in Tulsa, for 451
persons only have as yet subscribed !
and not over twenty-five per cent of !
s37,500 in good bona fide subscrip-
tons Is in the hands Of the trustees |
or the college Many strings are out
that are being worked that will get |
matters into such shape that another /
short campaign will see the entire |
amount subscribed. The campaign |
was n great success in one other par |
ticular The claims Of Kendall col
ege have been presented to the peo-
Pile as never before. The people have |
heartily 20 the call. When
seen. they viii subscribe the remand
ar necessary. Kendall has been ad-
gertised as never before throughout
the college territory, The country
'or miles around know of Kendalrs
100000 enlargement and endowment
Students have their eyes
IN Kendall who never considered
Kendall as their future college. Ken
lall is a distinct gamer In the first
'ound. No one knew how the rank
md file Of the people felt toward
Kendall college. They now know that
iigh and low, rich and poor. are
practically unanimous for Kendall
,ollege Tulsa has very few knock
don't count, anyhow. The
boosters are the boys and they are
Ill for Kendall.
Kendall will speedily undertake the
OF the enlargement plans.
or Tulsa will complete the 100000
und. This IS the opinion OF most
""ssrvatiye business men, bankers.
