nearly everybody who has an ounce
Of fishing blood in his veins TO sit up
and take quite promiennt notice.

HUNDREDS OF TULSANS the past
week or so have been preparing for
the beautiful and serviceable Of the

forestry designs, and along almost

UPON THE MISTAKEN belief that
the city OF Tulsa was building libra
ry, a st. Joseph, Mo-, art glass firm
addressed the commission yesterday
| through letter, seeking to dispose OF
stained glass windows for the build
ing. The city has no library build
ing at present, but there is strong
conviction among many that the In
terest which is being shown in the
new free library established in the
courthouse will be such a drawing
card that agitation for n building will
in the future receive much heartleI
| support than ever before.
LAST NIGHTS SERVICE at the
| Salvation Army's citadel in West Sec
ond street was one Of unusual interest
and power. For the past several
weeks the Army has procured the SER
vices OF one OF the pastors Of Tulsa
church to preach once a week, and
since that time there has been ere
ated a wonderful interest in the work
of this organization. Last night Rev.
p. r. Knickerbocker, pastor of the
Boston Avenue NJ, E. Church, South,
delivered the sermon, taking as his
theme Personal Responsibility to
God" At the close of his splendid
discourse, four persons kRelt and ac-
knowledged their belief in the Savior.

IT IS NOW QUITE proper to appear
on the streets in your new spring togs,
be you male or female. There is what
is considered raft" of new show
ings for everybody in all of the win
dows of the city where clothing Is
for sale, and for man, the same as for
woman, many of TIE newest designs
in wearing apparel are real nifty"
The weather is making it quite pos
sible for lighter garments TO now be
worn in safety, and while in footwear,
| lOw-cuts" are just coming up over
the brow Of spring, they are not the
least hit out of order If you like TO
wear them.
