new BIDS ASKED
BY SCHOOL BOARD
Unanimous Opinion Prop
erty Is Worth More
Than $4,000.

The school board is of the unani-
nous opinion that the tract of land
now used as Fairgrounds of the high
school, and advertised for sale on two
occasions, is worth more than $2l ,00l,
and as result of this decision,
reached at a luncheon yesterday noon,
rejected ali bids opened at the meet
ing Monday evening and authorized
the readvertising of this tract, loon
140, the greater frontage being OIL
Fourth.
A meeting was held of the school
board in the high school building
Monday night, at which time three
bids were received for this tract of
land. The city, through Mayor John
II. Simmons. bid $4,000 70" the cor
ner lots of block 1917. This bid, with
one offered by G. A. Steele of S21 DOL,
was rejected by the board. but not un-
til they haG adjourned their meeting
of Monday night TO hold an adjourned
session Tuesday noon, at which time
they hoped to be in possession of ad-
ditional data with reference to the ap-
proximate value of the place.
The board, through several of its
members at Monday nights meeting,
took the stand that the property Of
fered for sale was worth approximate
ly $4,000. While no definite state
ment was made with reference to the
amount the board would ask for the
property which they offer for sale, it
was apparent at yesterdays meeting
that a bid of nearly $4,000 would
have to be made before the site would
be disposed of

BE Set Out in the
City's Parks.

Early spring will bring to Tusans
a sight of great and vivid beauty, for
the park department has just com
pleted planting 1900 Of the best
Holland bulbs in the flower beds OF

These bulbs were ordered by the
former board before the war in Eu-
rope.
The order was first placed with an
importing house with headquarters in
Antwerp but the outbreak of the war
made it impossible to ship either in
1914 or 1915, so Tulsans have been
delayed three years in receiving the
treat of these beautiful flowers.
