IMItor World: Doing n render of Tho World,

Why a progressive place llko Tulsa will allow
promiscuous spitting on tho sidewalks and
streets Is a mystery. II is not only a filthy, un
clean litit.lt. but very unsanitary as well.
1 think l chii voice tho sentiment of most of

Why not the new illy administration take

I'M I tor Woibl: I am unknown to Tulsa, am n
resldcnl of New Orleans, have decided to make
Tulsa my future home, have been hero a week
looking over the city.
Thn object of this letter Is lo make a sugges'
Hon which will. I am confident. Interest a
number of young men of this city. Electricity
being my business, naturally, 1 nm Interested In
all Its phases, and having had considerable ex
perience In "wireless telegraphy," I urn able to
state with precision Unit It offers a vast field of
pleasure, study, research ami profit, also the
means of stimulating the city's Interest Other
cities have wireless stations whereby worldly
news can always b. Intercepted. Why not
Tulsa? Or has Tulsa already i radio associa
tion? I fall to see Its elevated antenna.
As soon as I am lmtmnueutly located am
going to equip myself vvitll receiving apparatus
callable of receiving from anywhere in this
country to the larger Huropeau station Why
not share Urn pleasure 1 will derive with such
an outfit Willi tlm young men of Tulsa or co
operate with them ami form a loe.tl uou-moiiev
making orgaulxatlon composed of young moil
of all agon, anyone Interested being eligible for

The sole purpose of what might well tie .al'ed
"The Tulsa Hadlo association" would b. to pro

tlvo art, free nt charge to members of the as

organisation of Interested young men, It would
only be time before they would be cumpeteni
operators Then who knows wehther or 1101 it ps
will bo taken to commercialize tho association
then It would be prepared to ban. He i- one if

Katlier and -mother wcro delighted
Hnrl. 10 Town.
The next week we returned to
town. Hub came 10 sec me often but
of ionise lie did not remain over
night 111 he had in the country. He
usually spent about tbiee evenings a
week with 1111, unit on Sunday we
motored out Into tho country If It
wcic pleasant, and had dinner at
some road house, then diovo Imine.
lie seldom came in after one of
these rides, as lie cared for his own
car. Hob. while (Uite prosperous,
was not what is called a rich man.
At least, not In New York. Ills
mother had divided lier persona! tor
nine between him and Ills sister, so
making Hob Independent of hH fa
ther, and allowing him to start In
business lie had opened a real cs.
tate office and was doing well. It
seemed strange for it man with Hob's
temperament to sell real estate. Ilo
was literary, almost a book worm;
and artistic to his finger lips. Vet
1 suppose all tills helped lilm to set!
property as it added to Ills person
ality. As the days passed I thought I ile.
tecled u different quality In Hob"s
manner toward me. lie seemed more
lovcrllke. although at no tlmo was
he particularly demonstrative. Yet
I was happy, so happy that some
times the fear that my hnpplnesi
wouldn't last frightened me. I said
something of this to him once. Just a
hint of the way 1 felt. Ile took me
in his arms and kissed me and as
sured mc that he would do all In his
power to make 1110 happy, of coiirso
1 believed him. What girl as much
In love as 1 was would not?
As 1 look back 1 vvomlor how I
that I was to murry Hob. Not that
they were anxious to be rid of me,
but years before whei I was IS 1
had thought myself in lovo vvitll a
handsome good-for-nothing fellow
and father had to use all his lact and
autholity to keep 1110 ftoni marry
ing him. Now I 'was -' I wan
rather settled In many ways, even
for 2S. I expeet remaining at homo
with, mother helping her keep house,
etc., had had a subduing effect. Not
thnt I did not have young friends, for
1 did, but they were my age; girls
who bad married years ago. most of
tlicni now had small families.
I haven't said 11 word about Hob's
looks, lie was not handsome, but
had 11 keen, clever face with dark
brown hair and oyes. lie was of
medium height, nnd 1111 athlete. He
played golf and tennis equally well.
I cured uuthlng for out-door sports,
but compelled myself to appear In
terested us It often was the means of
being with Hob more than I other
wise could.
Wo wcro to be married early In tho
spring. Such foolish thoughts enter
one's head nt times. When Hub
uskod me lo make it In May, I
couldn't help being gkid he hadn't
said June. My birthday was the
twenty-eighth of May. 1 should he
23 years old. Hut 11s we were to be

The Horoscope
"Tho fiir!i Imllnf. but da nut camp '
TucMlay, April 27, 11(20.
Mars and Venus aro In benofic as
pect during tho early houra of this
day. according to astrology, but later
Saturn and I'ranus tiro strongly ad
verse. Uuring this rifle it is well to hi
exceedingly cautious, for It Is un
usually easy to bo misled. HusIpcm
projects most nllurlnc should bo
carefully considered.
Tho whola tondency In tho busi

lnclmlu many countries and lnvnlvu
millions, the scorn forecast, hut they
wurn ot new forces that will work
against commercial autocracy
The stars rend ns foreshadowing
co-operation and communism seem
to presage growth of wealth and
power among the workers, owing to
soma fortuitous condition n o t
counted on among legislators or fi
nancier. Again Venus seems to gmllo upon
human ambitions. This should ho
a fortunate rule for women who do
slit to attain places of authority.
haiicatlon is to offer a woman
some great national opportunity,
but not until thero is ,1 critical -o-i-dlMon
In schools and coilctcs.
During this planetary govern
ment military men am likely in lm
extraordinarily popular among wo
men, who will support high ambi
tions on thn part of army men. This
will give but a false confidence, thn
seers declare, slnco army officers
will not attain to thn highest plain
in government affairs.
Again It is prophesied that tho
partial ccllpso of tho Sun next
montn will bo most serious In Its ef
fect on Ireland, Persia and Asia
Minor. It Is rond ns unfortiinato
for agriculture, causing a scarcity
of the fruits of tho earth.

Children born on this dav may
