[Photograph 2012.201.OVZ001.10143]
Photograph used for a story in the Daily Oklahoman newspaper. Caption: "That thing you see in the background of this picture is not a double-barreled shotgun for a giant, but it throws out something as deadly as any shotgun can throw. It is a sewer outlet. It shoots filth in the fornm of raw, utreated sewage-noxious, stinking, human excrement which pollutes the Canadian river and the surrounding atmospher - because Oklahoma City's two sewage disposal plants are too small to treat the great swage load from a growing city to render it as pure as a water lily. Speaking of water lillies, that stuff you see in the foreground is not water lillies - it's raw sewage. the $9 millions sanitary bond issue will provide the money necessary to cleaning up such a place as this. Vote today."
