j truly vital part of the play. The
;u'tors and actresses are all highly
1 educated singers and musicians, a
I combination so rare as to be almost
; unheard of.
"Sapulpa's growth has been most
wonderful,” said A J. Carkins, gen-
eral superintendent of the Pioneer
relepbone & Telegraph company for
the eastern section of Oklahoma at
the St. James last evening He is
in the city to inspect the Pioneer's
local lines. “When the company
made the estimate for the improve-
ments on its Sapulpa properties it
was thought they would be sufficient
to cover the field for five years to
come but already it can be seen that
they are not of enough magnitude to
handle the company's business, in-
- leasing as it is every day. The
Pioneer people have never had any-
thing like the local situation to con-
tend with in their long experience,
and have done everything in their
power to cope with it, giving patrons
the best possible service under the
circumstances. It will be necessary
to put in an extra number of cables
iu the uptown district, before we can
care for the business as we desire.
In our opinion the present switch
hoards in use in the exchange here,
will be all the office equipment that
it will be necessary to install for at
least twelve months, however, we
may be fooled as we were in the
other matter. I am a great believer
in the guture of Sapulpa, and when
a year ago 1 predicted the remark-
able development of the city during
the past year, the officials of the
company looked at me askance, but
they are now convinced that 1 was
right in my predictions.''
Clarence G. Dalton, editor and
publisher of the Mounds Enterprise
was in the city yesterday. When
asked concerning the report that lie
would move his newspaper plant to j
this city, Mr. Dalton said that he had ,
matter under consideration, but as j
yet had come to no definite conclu-
sion. In the event the Enterprise is
moved to Sapulpa, it will be pub-
lished weekly or semi-weekly, ac-
cording to Mr. Dalton.
bowling alley. This latter project,
said Mr. Nichols, would be one of the
most up to date amusement features,
to be found in this entire section of
the country. Besides four regulation
alleys, he will install an automatic
pin setter, a comparatively new in-
vention. and one which makes the lot
of the pin setter much easier, as well
as making the game about twice as
fast.
The “Climax" Coming
While reports indicate that there
is plenty of what the high browed
call "uplift” of the drama in "The
Climax", which Joe Weber will pro-
duce here at the opera house March
20th, it is nevertheless evident that
there will be plenty of interesting
things about th play.
Edward Locke wrote it, and like
Eugene Walter, had considerable
trouble in getting anyone to produce
it until one day he got Mr. Weber to
grant a reading The latter accepted
it immediately.
The striking thing about this new
play seems to be the music, it is by
Joseph Carl Breil and is spoken of
as “incidental," but it seems to be
more than that. It seems to be a

It will pay you ladies who are contemplating buying a new
Easter dress or suit, to make your selection as ear y as P0^'

lection grows more limited as the Easter day draws nearer and
you also miss the Easier rush that always comes in the tew days
before that annual event. We can give you more attent.on.yvhen
the store is not overrushed with buyers. That stands to reason,
but in any event we alway try to give you out best-

Up to date, we have sold just twice the
number of Ladies’ Tailored Suits that we sold
