Tulsls system OF street naming
is as unique as that of any other
. city in the United states. While
most Tulsans are familiar with the
various thOroughiares, not all Of
them have studied the names and
ascertained why they were given.
With ogly "a smattering Of geogra-
ply and knowledge of cities in
America, It is easy for anyone to
quickly locate - street or avenue
when he hears its name,
Streets stretch east and west ana
avenues north and south. In many
cities there il no attempt at an or
derE arrangement OF streets and
avenues. one north and south
ta-r7ughfare may be 81 avenue and
'aa tho"lushfare a block east or
Wet may be designated as street,
In Tulsa, Main street and the
Frisco tracks are the dividing lines
which divide the city into four
quarters" North OF the Frisco
tracks the designation Is North Main
ana south OF tho tracks South Main.
similarly East Third street Is all of
Mal street east Of Main street and
Wet Third all west OF Main. All

All avenues east OF Main street
are named alphabetically for east

If All Church Members Attended

What would happen II every
church member In Tulsa should 90
to church this morning?
At least two-thirdB Of them would
have to turn back and go home br.
cause there would be no place for
them. According to rough csti-
mate made by II. l.. Hoiuzman, al.
rector Of religious work In the
Y. NJ. c. A., there are not enough
seats I'm the church buildings uf
Tulsa to accomodate onc-third of
the church members of the city. In
other words. Tulsa Is only about 80
per cent churched The fact that It
ls the exception rather than the rule
that people are turned away from
church doors. might shed little
light on the church-going propenFl-
ties OF the mcmbcrs OF churches lV
ing In Tulsa
Tho inadequacy of the churches
OF the city is a condition that could
In no way bring criticism OF either
churches or church workers. %eith.
er is II a condition peculiar 10
churches alone. The rapid pace at
which Tulsa has grown makes u
n common ono with It's schools, its
library In view Of the rapid de-
velopment Of the town, the growth
OF the churches has been phonome-
nal. Indeed, they could not, with
their environment, have grown any
faster, Hcinzman believes, but the
fact remains that certain condi-
tion relative to churches does face
Tulsa now.
The first five Methodist Eplsco-
pal churches OF Wichita, "A city OF
approximately the same size as
Tulsa, have larger budgets than tho
five downtown churches OF Tulsa
Heinzman said. Thore are IN this
city, II churches and 81 organized
denominations. These II churches
include all the church buildings
within the city limits, ana leave big
areas Of thickly populated parts or
town, such as Orcutt Lake addition
and Irving place. with no church
located In them On the other
hand, check back for ten years. and
II will be found that Tulsa people
have invested approximately
quarter million dollars year IN
their churches. TO have done more
than this would have been virtually
impossible, especially In view of tho
It's accompanying expense Of build
ing IN all its phases, was being 60
