the men of Drawn all following the
example of the newspapers in the mat
ter of bringing Tulsa more prominent
ly to the front, it seems to me that
failure in building a metropolis on the
banks of the Arkansas is absolutely
impossible, and that a wonderful city
throbbing with energy and teeming
with hundreds Of thousands of pros
porous, happy people is a moral and
physical certainty. All it calls for is
optimism, the close touch Of kindred
minds, and the combined action of
thoughtful, careful, unselfish men
and women See only the best things
and you will work only for the best.
Between optimist and pessimist
the difference is droll. The one sees
the %dOuEhnut, the other sees the hole"
he concluded.
Work of remodeling will begin the
first OF next week and the prospects
are that tho Chamber of Commerce
and its valuable allies will be installed
in new offices with better facilities by
the first Of August. Mr.. Tilburne in
forms us that many old members are
renewing their pledges of support and
thai many new ones are joining the
forces which promise much for the
progress Of Tulsa.

Correspondence Of the Associated Press)
BUDAPEST, July 24.-A Hun
garian officer. describing the fighting
On the Tyrolese mountain peaks. a
mile above sea level. states that the
most difficult problem for the staff
is to maintain the supply Of food to
the troops. on account Of the high
altitude and the continuous physical
strain, they need good supplies and
plenty of them.
The officer pays a tribute to the
work of the Red Cross. "Our wounded
have TO be carried down in sheets
tied to the ends of sticks, and it takes
a dozen men TO carry one down" he
remarks.
Scout duty is particularly danger

many of these lev return. Touch
ing on the remarkable echoes thrown
back by the mountain peaks. the Of
ficer says: The roar of the guns is
heard twice. thrice, or perhaps a
dozen times, the echo throwing the
sounds back and forth, and trans
forming a single report into n fusil-
lade. Many of Il men have been
rendered unconscious or ever driven
mad by the fearful noise of the guns
in the rarified atmosphere of these
high attitudes"
The same officer in another letter
described an attack by the Italians
on the positions held by his troops.
