Not Drives, But Races.

SVttIHI 70 NO NUTIU,
BARTLESVILLE, Dec. 12.-They
are not holding jackrabbit drives here
the same as down In the Panhandle
country in Texas, but they are hold
ing jackrabbt races in which Jacks"
and groyhounds play the principal
part. These big rabbits, which re-
sembe young lambs at a distance, are
numerous out on the prairies. The
killing OF these rabbits, as well as
"cottontails" is helping to solve the
high cost OF living problem in this
section. Jackrabbits are started and
then greyhounds. a couple at n time.
are turned loose and usually the rab-
bit is run down. Another favorite
winter sport soon to be started VII
be wolf drives. Wolves are very pleh- =
tiful in the Usage country, southwest
of here.

CLOSE GUARDIANSHIP CASES
Newer Generation of Indians Are
Learning To Till Soil
Special to The World.

Special to The World.
BARTLESVILLE, Okla. Dec. IL
Within the next month or two approx
imately fifty guardianship cases Will
be cscd in the county The final
reports of the guardians of Indian
minors viii be made to the probate
court and the property of Indian boys
and girls who have become of age Will
be turned over to them.
OH lands and agricultural lands to
the value of more than $15O,0O0 will
come into the hands of these Indians,
members of the Delaware ana Chero-
+ec tribes There will still remain In
the probate court nearly five hundred
Indian minor cases, many of which
viii rot be closed for ten years, as by
that time all minors will have become
of age.
Probably no man in the state ever
had charge Of greater number OF
minor estates is guardian than frank
Phillips. president of the Bartlesville
National bank. He was at tho begin
ming of statehood guardian Of fifty
Indian minor children. And Mr.. Phil
lips successful banker and oil man,
has handled this vast amount OF bust
ness in capable and efficient man
nei. He was appointed guardian in
most Of the cases by Federal judge
Gill prior to statehood.
Indian boys are not following in the
footstop ps of the older members OF the
tribes in not taking an active part IN
the development of their lands. The
older members OF the tribes have suf-
ficient income. so they do not have
to til their lands, and that is one
reason why so many acres OF line as-
ricultural lands lay dormant IN the
county. Young indian boys In Wash p
ington county are going back to the
soil". Some OF the finest farms In
the county are owned by young IN
dams, who take great pride III raising
gccd crops, as well as GOOD stock. AS

their lands are being taken up and
cultivated by the younger members OF

TULSA MAY LAND
BIG ARM0R PLANT
This City Seriously Considered
for $1l, 100000 Govern
ment Factory.
CITIES ON COAST LOSE CUT
Border Towns Also ELM
mated; Location Here Is
Considered Ideal One. -

Tulsa chances to secure the gov
plant, which is to be erected within
the next year. a site for which is now
being considered by an army board,
lighter yesterday when IL was
announced that cities of the border
and locations along the coast had
been eliminated from the considera-
tion OF the board and special com
mittees had been appointed to make
personal survey of sites proposed
by the some forty cities seeking the
plant.
This matter was first brought to
the attention of Secretary Clarence
Douglas of the Tulsa Chamber of
Commerce on August 2S of this year
and. Immediately he sent letter to
Secretary of the Navy Daniels, set
ting forth the reasons why Tulsa
should he considered by the board a1
an ideal location for the huge plant
Douglas Writes Daniels.
Secretary Douglas in his letter
called attention of Secretary Daniels
TO the fact that Tulsa was essentially
an American city. with truly
American population, patriotic to a
high standard and deserving of con-
sideration.
Mr. Douglas explained the advan-
tages Of the selection of site which
would afford an ambulance of gas
and oil, such as this city has as the
premier oil and gas city of the world.
He called attention, too, To the fact
that the climatic conditions of this
section of the country were ideal,
with a mean temperature of 60 de
grees and an average annual rainfall
OF 3S inches As civic center, with
all social features, II was explained
that no city could be selected which
would offer more in these things and
that being an inland town was not
in danger of any invasion by either
troops or naval forces in the event
of "A great conflict.
Close to Necessities.
Being in close touch with the iron
and coal deposits of the middle west
mining section, II was explained
should be to the advantage of Tulsa,
while ample proving grounds were
within easy distance of a site, should
it be located adjacent to Tulsa. In
this connection, Secretary Douglas
explained that the hills of the Usage
nation would form natural proving
grounds in the event that Tulsa was
selected as IA site, n matter which Is
one of great Importance in the con-

manufacture of armor, large guns and
high explosives, such as would he the
product OF the plant now cuntem-
plated, which would he the largest IN
the world.
The advantages of location on the
Arkansas river, which in some sea-
sons might be navigable, together
with its water supply. was mentioned
in the letter sent to the secretary aud
Mr.. Douglas dwelt at length on the
subject of this city's cooperation
with the department in selecting a
site. 1t was suggested that this city
would go to any reasonable limit in
securing the ground adjacent TO the
city, should the special board now
considering the project decide that
Tulsa offered the greatest advantages
for such an armor plant.

GLENN ANSWERS ROOTS
SPEECH IN STRONG STYLE
REV. J. b. BOHEMIAN CALLED.
Has Accepted Pastorate Second Bap-
tist Church, and Severing His Po-
sitiOn With The Times.

Rev. J. B. Bozeman was recently
called to the pastorate of the Secnod
Baptist church, this city, and has ac-
cepted the call. The church extended
the call for full time and upon the
condition that Mr.. Bozeman devote all
his energies to the work of the church.
This necessitated his withdrawing
from the position of business manager
of The Times.
Feeling called to devote all his ener-
gies to the work of the ministry, he
has severed his connection with the
paper.
The field to which he has gone pre-
sents very great opportunities for SER
vice and Mr.. Bozeman was centred
upon by the congregation as the man
well-fitted to use the opportunities.
He has entered upon his work there
with very flattering prospects.
