What Naturalist Saw I'm His Garden
One Afternoon.

Late one afternoon when ! was busy

grape post that supported the bird
box in which the wren had "A nest and
from this outlook he grew eloquent In
his denunciation of wrens. His loud,
rapid voice and the answering cackle
OF the wren attracted the attention or
their bird neighbors. Four robins
came, one after another, and perched
on the tops of surrounding posts, sill
ent but interested spectators. A male
oriole came. a catbird came. two -Oue
sparrows came and then a male gold
finch perched nearby The birds were
evidently curious to kniw what all this
loud alteration was about-very hu-
man in this respect.
After the bluebird had eased his
mind a little about wrens, he droppeo
down to the box and, clinging to the
entrance to the nest, looked in. In
stantly the wren was on his back,
scolding excitedly. The buepird
turned to seize him, but was not quick
enough. and there was a brown streak
with a blue streak close behind st. to
the nearest currant bush, in which
the wren again chartered and sang in
derision. The bluebird again resumed
his perch above the nest and was
louder and more emphatic than ever
In his protests II was really very

WAR SACRIFICES NECESSARY
Red Cross Worker Says Spiritual Ex-

WASHINGTON, June i5.-SacrifiCe
which the war will bring is needed by
America to lift its people to the spirit
ual eXaltation developed in European
warning nations, Henry Z. Dawson,
chairman OF the Red Cross war coun-
ell, told the Washington chapter of
the Red Cross today.

hope and pray that whatever may be
needed to arouse us to a sense of sac
rfice and cleanse us from our selfish
ness will come to us"
Mr.. Dawson expressed doubt II more
than per cent of Americans realize
that we are today not only fighting
for the principles upon which our re-
existence People of England and
France also were slow to change their
ideals early in the war" he said, but
now It seems as II their affection and
regard for mankind had mmeasura bly,
increased. They seem TO be without
malice or design, envy or jealousy,
without sordid ambition-to be living
on Il higher and better plane. Even
with their terrible sorrow and suffer-
ing they seem to be stronger and
surer and more content to meet what
ever may be given them to meet.
THE process of fire which has thus
purified them has been for our account
as well as their own.

idealist; l was never more practical

ton of this that has caused me to 20

CITY COMMISSIONERS
MAY DODGE A FIGHT
Disposition of Board Is to Let
a Hot Stove Alone Until
it Cools.

The mayor and board of city com
missioners are not in favor OF con-
tlnuing the proceedings they have in
stlluted to hold up payment of gas
bills due the Usage & oklahoma Co.
This, In substance, was the unani-
nous opinion of the city commis-
sioners yesterday morning, after they
had been advised by the mayor that
to secure "A reduction in the manufac-
turing gas rate in Tulsa. an increased
domestic rate would result. The
mayors report came after he had at
sended hearing before the state
corporation commission in Oklahoma
city. at which he had been advised
that the rates in Tulsa were as low as
the commission would agree to pace
them, unless the domestic rate was
raised to a corresponding return for
the decreased manufacturing rate.
Reverse Opinion.
Some time ago, following the or
dered increase of manufacturing gas
rates. bills for consumed gas used by
the city were presented to the sew
cral department heads. The aid or
the city's legal department was sought
and an injunction was brought re-
straining the company from collect
ing until the case had been decided.
Now the mayor and commissioners
believe that they were bit hasty and
That the greatest consideration should
he shown the domestic consumers,
against the manufacturing interests.
II is the opinion of several OF the
commissioners that ii is only short
time until the gas supply as source
of fuel for manufacturing interests,
Is exhausted, and II is their conten-
tion that the remaining supply should
be given to domestic consumers.
In this connection 1t is pointed out
that only within the last few weeks
the Cosden Refining company has Sc
cured control of several coal mines
in this vicinity, I'm one instance paying
$50 GOO for a single mine.
'-fhis." according to one of the city
commissioners, lis hut evidence that
the foresighted business and manu-
featuring man is putting his house IN
readiness to use coal as a fuel to re
place gas. They realize that the u,y
of cheap gas for manufacturing pur-
poses is drawing to "A close. All OF
Tulsa should reach the same concu-
sion"
Water Power Next?
The matter was brought to the at
tention of the directors of the Cham
Der OF Commerce and there is was
suggested that steps be taken TO in
stigate a survey of the adjacent
streams for the purpose of developing
whether there was enough waterfall
to develop power for Tulsa's manu-
featuring interests. To acquaint the
directors with this phase of the mat
ter T G. Hughes. an engineer, has
heen invited to address the board of
directors at their meeting next Fri
day.
