What The Tulsa Press Club
Has Done to Boost the CITY

prise carried out in Tulsa, the mem
bers of the Tulsa Press club have
played a conspicuous part and they
have caused the story of Tulsa and
her resources and possibilities to be
scattered TO the four corners of the
earth, through the columns of the
metropolitan press and magazines of
this country The willingness with
which the local newspaper men have
given their time and efforts to pub
lie enterprises and the value Of these
services is acknowledged by the Of
ticers Of the Commercial club, the Dry
Farming Congress and other public
Institutions
And in the midst of these CONNER
cial and social activities the Tulsa
Press Club has not been lacking in its
charitable work. Not only does a
sort Of freemaSonry exist among its
members but that same charity is eX-
tended to every feature of the life Of
Tulsa by the club. The pursestring
Of the clubs members is always un-
tied to foster and promote any worthy
cause The existence of this spirit
has been clearly demonstrated, in the
work of the Good Fellows at Christ
mas time, the Salvation Army the
Humane society, and other charitable
institutions.
The Tulsa Press Club was organiz-
ed I'm November, 1911. The officers
OF the club are J. Burr Gibbons,
president; Walter Allen, vice presi-
dent, Glenn Condor, secretary
urer. These officers were elected at
the initial meeting Of the organiZa-
tion and the fact that their successors
have not been selected Is an evidence
o ftheir appreciated services.
The purposes in forming the club
were to afford entertainment, relaxa-
tion and recreation for its members,
establish closer social relation
among the profession; to extend The
hospitality of their entertainments to
their friends of the business and pro-
fcssional world; to entertain visiting
persons OF note who pass through the
city, to spread the fame of Tulsa and
bear a hand in the work Of making
Tulsa i'm size and business Importance
as well rs in culture and the arts, one
of the fist American cities.
These aims have shaped the sue
cess to which the club has attained,
these Inspirations will hold II closely
together and assure It's far greater
success in the future. With the city
Of its birth. 1t will grow exceeding
and prosper.

APARTMENT HOUSES IN
TULSA ARE IN DEMAND
HIGH-CLASS BUILDINGS ARE NOW
BEING ERECTED-MANY
MORE NEEDED.

No other factor is SO indicative Of
the growth of a city as the coastruc-
ton of modern apartment houses. and
there probably is no city I'm Oklahoma
where this fact is so applicable as lu
Tulsa. Despite the big building move
ment I'm apartment houses, # Is "a
fact that space in all the LEADING
buildings of this kind is almost at "A
premium. This situation prevails in
year too. when more flat buildings
and dwellings were erected than ever
before.
Tulsa's record in apartment house
construction even SURPASSED the big
showing made in 1911, the banner
year In the number and quality Of
new apartment buildings.
In high-class apartment buildings
the records of the building inspectors
office show not only that there were
more costly structures erected but
also there were more fireproof or
semi-fireproof houses built this year
than in any previous year. The day
Of the cheaply- built and third-rate
apartment in Tulsa has passed The
typical apartment-house dweller has
become fastidious and exactlng. He
has made II known that only an at
tractive-looking structure. equipped
with all modern conveniences and
comparatively safe from fire hazards
will satisfy his demands. Experience
Of the past two years demonstrates
that the average patron of the apart
ment house Is willing to pay for all
such features. Investors in apart
ment house properties have come to
realize this condition. with the result
that, with few exceptions. virtually
all OF the important structures of this
kind built during the past year meet
the requirements OF the average
patron.

CITY GETS $101,141,507
IN JUST THREE MONTHS
Income Three Millions Greater
than First Quarter of 1912,
Controller Reports.

Controller Prendergast has issued a
pamphlet giving a summary OF the city's
financial activities during the first three
months OF 1873 in comparison with the
figures OF 1912. The purpose OF this report
is TO present the vast financial transac-
tons OF the city, which equal in amount
the combined fiscal action OF the ten next
argest cities in the United States.
The opening table shows that total re-
cclpts during the first three months OF
1913 aggregated sl0l. al .O7, of which ~,
937654 was from taxes. assessments, water
rates. etc. s77.,94s6i from short term
borrowings, and sn3,sS9 from interest on
deposits OF city moneys ard sundry other
sources.
The outlays for improvements and
equipment aggregated sls,62O.l32 Interest
on the city debt required payments OF

debt. including corporate stock notes AMI
short term bonds. there was paid out S35,

taxes, water rents, etc. which had been
paid In error.
An examination of the income and out

of 1872 shows the collections from reve-
nue. from all sources were s3,5s050 great

provements were 81. POS. sol greater.
1t is shown that from 1908 10 1913 the
city's payments to the state have been
upward OF $S9.O0O.0C0 In excess of all the
moneys received from the state.

II looked for while yesterday as II
Frank Cancllieri, the boss barber, who
declared the strike Of the Manhattan bar

about his ears by calling a strike without
giving notice TO the Brooklyn BARRIERS

World of which the Manhattan strikers
are supposed to form branch.
At a meeting Of the New York strikers
in Arlington Hail. -. Marks Place. last
night the way in which the New York
strike was called was sharply criticised
by Brooklyn strikers, and at one time IL
seemed as II the meeting would end in
riot.
The demands Of the Manhattan strikers
being different from those Of the striking
Brooklyn BARRIERS. the latter declare that
the calling Of the Manhattan strike with
out consulting the Brooklyn local is cal
culated TO hurt both strikes. A committee
of the Brooklyn local Of the Industrial
Workers of the World BARRIERS came TO
the meeting to call the Manhattan strike
off or change the demands 10 jibe with
the demands made In Brooklyn They
were accompanied by large contingent
Of the Brooklyn strikers. but when they
saw how many Manhattan strikers were
present they decided to go slow.
1t was some time before Rosano Rotolo
was elected chairman, and he had Diff
ficulty in calling the meeting to order.
Some of the Brooklyn speakers said that
the Manhattan men were traitors to the
Brooklyn men. The Manhattan men
shouted that the Brooklyn men were the
traitors as they appeared to want every
thing to themselves A Brooklyn speaker,
the only one who spoke in English. then
addressed the Manhattan strikers.
