In the world, sought to scotch the
wheels Of development and. tie the
hands of forward moving men.
The bonds for the new school
building We're voted on st. Patrick's
day, March II, 1914. The board of
education at that time was composed
of o. III. II. Mcdowell, II. o. Mcclure,
A. A. Bumgarner, Ray Fellows,
Ralph Lockwood, II. ID. Mason and
j. II. League. All of them are stfll
serving the city in the same capaci-
garner and Mason.
We're Criticized.
These men were criticized for pro-
posing such an '"eXtravagant expen-
diture" AS 100000 for a high school
building. But they were men who
had the wisdom of the Tulsa spirit
and refused to compromise with
those who would not look into the
future.
At a public-spirit meeting held un-
der the auspices of the Chamber of
Commerce, progress and optimism
marshalled their strength in behalf
Of the bonds and after short but
somewhat heated fight on the part
of the opposition they went over.
IT was not until February, 1916,
that ground was broken for the new
building that now covers the block
between Fifth and Sixth and Boston
and Cincinnati streets. The court
fight on the injunction proceedings
brought by the fogies had consumed
more than year. But at last work
got under way.
George Winkler, a Tulsa architect,
designed the structure and its SYM
metry and beauty Is a monument to
his architectural genius. Thus Is the
new high school building in a double
sense typical representative of
Tulsa-not only in IT'S origin and the
spirit that forced 1t thru, but in the
brains that conceived its outline and
construction.
That those who insisted upon
making ample provision for the
Tulsa that is now arriving-who had
the genuine conception Of what is
happening here and In to happen.
who had the vision Of the Tulsa
spirit-were correct Ia shown by the
fact that hardly had the bond cleo
ton carried In 1914 when the old
high school buildig. which the 'old
fdgies" had claimed 20 loudly would
be sufficient for the next ten or
twenty years, began to prove wholly

ber by the thousands every year.
Months Not Years.
1t must be remembered that four
years, or three years, in Tulsa Is "A
decade in any other city, and tina,
the growth and expansion reached by
other cities in ten years Is reached
by Tulsa in a few months. Thus 1t
has been for the past five years. for
Only in that brief time has Tulsa dou-

. Description of Building.
The new high scnool building Is
sance style Of architecture, combined
with such changes as modern require
ments have made.
1t is constructed OF matt-faced brick
and Carthage stone, giving tho i'm
preston of stability and spaciousness.
The monotony of many rows Of we'll
grouped windows Is relieved by the
dignity Of two stone towers and stone-
capped buttresses. The main en-
trance between the towers on the
north facade are imposing and beau
tifully proportioned, and tho Gothic
carving above and on both sides Of the
entrance arch is well placed. with the
Tudor ornament above the first group
of windows gives relief and interest.
The towers are Of Gothic adapta-
tion, planned for interesting effects
in lighting and shading. In the center
above the entrance Is q niche for
scultured figure. typifying .he spirit
Of the Tulsa school system.
The marble decorated main en-
trance leads both to the basement
floor ana the main floor. Large,
roomy stairwayg characterize the exits
and entrances to each Of the four
floors Of the building, thus accommo-
dating the entire student body within
a few minutes in case Of an emer-

Tulsa will proudly celebrate the
formal opening this week of its
beautiful and magnificent pew Gen.
trail High School building-the hand
soonest in the entire southwest, con-
structed and equipped at an approxi-
mate cost of $450,00o.
This is a day OF big achievement
in Tulsa. This wonderful oil me-
tropolis Of the midwest is jumping
ahead at such a tremendous rate
that the dedication and opening OF
record breaking and record-smash-
ing new buildings has become quite
ordinary events.
Last week the city celebrated the
opening of the handsomest banking
house in the southwest this week
II is the opening of the handsomest
school building in the southwest; (;
next week or week after, perhaps, 1t
will be something else. Always
Tulsa is opening something unusual,
celebrating a particular event that is
another milestone in the marvellous
progress and development of which
the city is the hub and the center.
Things That Make q City.
In nothing 1t has done has Tulsa
better displayed, the spirit that ami
mates her and that is showing her
forward to the front rank OF south
western cities than in the construc-
ton of the new high school building.
1t Is not alone an architectural
achievement worth while. but 1t
shows that Tulsa rs alive to the as
thetic as well as to the materialistic
things of life; that it. has the proper
appreciation of educational values
and of the importance of giving to its
young men and young women the
very best advantages for their proper
equipment in their life work; that its
future citizenship shall have the full
est opportunities to prepare for the
work 1t in its turn shall do. The
Tulsa spirit thoroly understands that
brick and steel and mortar alone do
not make q great city; that life is
more than meat and body is more
than raiment." Tulsa has no con-
tracted view that is looking only at
holes In the ground: Tulsa looks for
ward and upward as well as down
ward, and looks downward only be-
cause the hidden treasures about her
provide her sinews with which to
develop and round-out her character
and make her truly great.
Selfishness not Here.

come here that everybody in Tulsi,

IT isn't true and those who saw only
an eager desire for material gain look
ed hut superficially. And the best
proof OF this Is found in the opening
this week of the finest educational
building " This section OF the country.
And this Is merely one witness. There
are many others-witnesses whose
Testimony" cannot be impeached.
The most splendid church edifices to
be found in any city of equal size in
the United States speak eloquently for
Tulsa's estimate OF what 1t should
have in building a solid, substantial,
moral atmosphere as we'll as financiaf
atmosphere. The magnificent y. Nj.
.. A, the fine new public library, and
many others are heralds of the fact
that the Tulsa spirit is composite, that
II looks both ways and every way to
the upbuilding of its people; that 1t
undo, stands that its place in the
sun" will be reached by giving thot
to tlN cultural things of life as well
as to the architectural and mechan-
ical.
Indeed, the very conception OF the
great new school building whose open
ing Is being celebrated this week was
the finer side Of the Tulsa spirit, de-
manding that its young citizenship
should have the very best that could
be given for the development or this
cultural side.
Had No Vision.
Back in 1914, when the movement
was begun that has given the city the
beautiful new building that now
graces an entire block~there were a
few who insisted that the old school
building was good enough" and that
It would provide for the needs for
the next ten years, at least!" They
could not see ahead and they wanted
to put In just<as little and take out,
just as much us they possibly could
in their educational affairs as they
were doing in their private affairs.
But they were In n great minority. BY
a vote of 2,075 to 6lS the Tulsa spirit
asserted itself. and In an election the
Tulsa spirit carried the day for n
$500, 900 high school building.
Then fight ensued that went to
the supreme court of the state.
Fogyism always dies hard and Is ever
a bad loser. The courts of every
state in the Union are filled with

ism, defeated at the polls by the

BINGHAMTON IN
 RICH ORE AT 600 LEVEL
(From Sundays Daily)

Some of the specimens of the high grade copper orc recently encounter
 cd in the Arizona Binghamton, were exhibited in Prescott yesterday, the ore being unusually rich and coming from the new workings on the 600- foot level. The company now has two ore shoots on the 600. about 300 feet apart, one of which is Is feet in width and the other being already croSscut about B feet. The latter shoot is supposed to be an extension of the big shoot recently encountered in the raise from the 600 to the 500 level, the shoot being something like 45 feet in width at the point at which il was cut. The rock from the 1S-foot shoot assays about per cent copper, while the orc in the 23-foot shoot will go nearly per cent in the rcd metal.
 Prosecuting is still going on in the 25-foot shoot. The strike of the high grade orc at the depth of GO feet iS regarded as being remarkable, and the officials of the organization are natur- ally jubilant over the rich find Some of the picked samples taken from the new workings run as high as ? DC, cent copper.
 Judge L. w. Wells, of Prescott, was the rcccn; visitors at the Binghamtou. and is authority for the statement that operations al this big plant are going ahead with all pos siblc speed.
