Tulsa Realty Holding Firm
Realtors Contrast Difference in Financial Condition
This Year and Last, Showing That Tulsa Dirt
Is Better Than Gold Bonds
haa alwaYs gone forwardl

Never before have Tulsa real estate values been as prom
ising as at he present time. The real estate market, duh
and stagnant a year ago, has today awakened into a new
era in Tulsa that bids fair to quite eclipse any mark pre-
viOusly set in the whole state.
This was the optimistic report CLEANED from interviews
with leading real estate men Of Tulsa. All of them saw in
the future the Tulsa of 100000, with the accompanying rise
IN the value of property here. They pointed to the fact that
Tulsa, the Tulsa Of 1O9,37O, according to the recent city d-
rectory census, started from a wild west town of uncertain
population scarcely 20 years ago. In that small period of
lass than two score years, people from the east, north, south
and west have come, have seen and have been conquered by
the magic city's shining wealth. All these things, they
point to, as only a small indication of what the next 20 years
will unfold for the greatest Oklahoma city"
