INDIAN IS MAKING
RAPID PROGRESS
THE IDEA MOST GENERALLY
PORTRAYED IN MOVING PIC
TTRE Is ERRONEOUS.
YOUNGER Ones EDUCATED
Women Readily Adapt Themselves TO
Household Duties--Men Still
Prone to Have Good Time.

The people Of the east who get their
only idea Of the Indian from moving
picture shows and wild west circuses,
which almost invariably show the red
man in his primitive or near primi-
tive state, little realize the truly re-
markable development the Indian has
made. No where is this shown strong
er than in the women of the Indian
race.
Indian women, especially in Okla
homa have learned rapidly from the
white man, and are today ranked in
many respects and instances as highly
Intellectual and capable women. In
Vulnerable examples right here in
Tulsa can be quoted.
1t is a far cry from the painted saw
age Of the plains who is pictured for
us in the wild west show to the civil
lied Indian to today, who has been
well trained in efficient schools and
is as well If not better able to earn
living than his white brother. There
are many westerners who have no
conception of the business activities of
the Indian of today, and it is an ac-
tual fact that easterners could still
be found by the score who believe
that the streets Of every city in the
est are thronged with red men in
full regaia.
The most effective way TO dispel
such illusions is to see some of these
people at work in their offices,
