Tulsa has, however, some OF the

&Ed some Of the largest banks in the

an ex,raordnary character to swell

There are five cities in the United
States with less population than
Tulsa having greater postal receipts.
They are Sioux City, Topeka. Tampa.

publications. mail order houses and
farm products.
when the receipts of the local Of
flee reach $500, 900, 1t will be given
a new classification. Benedict is
hopeful that the receipts will reach
that mark during the present year.
The new classification would place
Tulsa on a rank with the following
cities: Los Angeles. San Francisco,

that fully vindicates his wife and

The climax is a s%tartlingly novel

BIG DRAMA PROMISED
IN COMING FEATURE

"The Child Thou Gavest Me-" the
Perry N. Vekroff story which will be
shown at the Liberty for two days
starting Thursday, sets forth in a
logical and interesting manner the
complications that arise from a mar
riage solemnized without the groom
knowing that his bride has a child.
The girl herself does not know that
the child is still alive until after the
wedding, and then, for sufficient
reason, she refuses to reveal the
identity of its father.
Thus, before the echo of the we'd
ding march has died out, the couple
are estranged, but are compelled to
live in the same house. The man is
filled with antipathy for his wife's
son and, feeling that he has been
and cheated, devotes his life
to a search for the father of the
child.
1t $ an obsession with him that
casts suspicion upon every man who
shows the slightest friendship for his
