“Just a short letter to let you know | 
received my rhizomes today and I was really 
thrilled at how healthy and well packed they 
were. My neighbor and I both marveled at 
how clean they were. I would like to ex- 
press my appreciation of your wonderful hos- 
pitality at your farm during our visit to 
Tulsa. You have a most beautiful place and 
a stopover there is certainly worth the time. 
Incidently, we were in Tulsa during the Oil 
Show, and were haying a very difficult time 
finding a place to stay. So, on your sugges- 
tion we went over to Claremore, found a 
very nice Motel and had a very enjoyable 
trip. We got to see the Will Rogers Me- 
morial, and the huge gun collection in the 
Mason Hotel lobby. | certainly hope we can 
come to Tulsa and Claremore again next 
year.”

Those two sights are worth going a long 
way to see, and before too long you will 
also see the famous twelve million dollar 
Gilcrease Museum to be housed in a new 
building ajacent to the Will Rogers. You 
must not have seen all the guns. They are 
not only in the lobby, but are in the Coffee 
Room, the Dining Room, the hall, and even 
in the men’s rest room—into the thousands.
