Climate Affects Civilization.

Marking on Il map Of the world the
areas where climate was most favor
able to human effort, Professor ELS
worth Huntington, of Yale university,
called them zones of climate energy.
Dplving into history. he then plotted
a map Of civilization, and found that
the two maps cuincided His con-
cluSion was that climate has Il great
influence on health. and its action on
civilization i'll this way probably is
greater than its direct effect or than
the indirect results arising through
agriculture or food"
Professor Huntington took the
records Of piaceWorkerS in Pittsburgh
factories and students at West Point
and Annapolis and found that both
physical ana mental work varied in
harmony with he weather. He found
that the death rate also Ilurtuated
>cGSanablN according to the weather.
lie therefore concluded that NO high
civilization is possible in the tropical
REGIONS. or where weather conditions
are adverse No high accomplishment
as h"!d possible where temperature
md huaiDIi.. are uuIa\orable.

/ VOTCE OF MRS. HALLE WAS
bTIY ENJOYED BY MUSIC-LOVERS

greatest satisfaction was felt in the
finished rendering of "The Song of
the Shepherd LehI," by Rimsky-Kor-
sakowff. and yet, what is lovelier
than Rubinstein's Bend Lovely
Bud" or Thchaikowsky's Joyous
"Springtime?'
The Italian aria. "Ah, for Sc Lui,"
from Verdi's "Traviata.' gave wide
opportunity for coloratura effects,
and the ripping cadenzas were beau
tifully executed. Perhaps this gave
to many Of the audience a clearer
idea Of the wide range, and admirable
flexibility OF Mrs. Haile's voice.
The Mcdowell numbers in the next
group, the bewitching "Pierrot," by
Johnston. and the delicious apple
Blossom Time" by Lester. were like
lovely evchin&s. The Interpretation
Of tne latter number was exquisite
perhaps due to the fact that Mr.. Les

Haile's coach and teacher in her last

ALEXANDER wins
Big NICARAGUAN
OIL Land LEASE
Okmulgee and Kansas City
Capitalists Secure 42,SO0
Square Miles Land on
Competitive Bids.

OKMULGEE, Okla.--Developmen
Of petroleum and natural resources
in Nicaragua, in Central America by
oil men of the United States is ap-
parently assured as the result of the
granting OF an oil lease or concession
covering practically the entire area
Of Nicaragua to w. A. Alexander Of
okmulgee and Kansas City, and asso-
ciates. as announced here today by
Mr. Alexander. The lease, granted
for forty years by the Ncaraguan
government covers approximately A.
500 square miles and provides that
certain amount of oil and gas de-
velopment work shall be done each
year, Alexander said. 1t is subject to
renewal by the present grantees and
carries royalty provision for the
Nicaraguan government and also CON
tains a clause providing that its hold
ers may purchase the surface Of gov
ernment land covered by the lease for
$3.50 per nectar. equivalent TO about
two and one-half acres.
In seeking the Nicaraguan lease,
Mr.. Alexander, and several Kansas
City capitalists, were in competition
with oil men Of other countries and
award TO the Okmulgee man is looked
upon her as a big achievement for
American oil interests. If Nicaragua
should prove to be a prolific oil pro.
ducing country, the Alexander con
cession would assume national and in.
ternational importance.
Mr.. Alexander is pioneer oil
operator in this district and man
Of means and standing in the oil in
dutsry. He will leave for the east
within a few days TO make arrange
ments to start the preliminary work
which must be done before actua
drilling operations can be begun in
the Central American republic. Ur
TO the present time, no commercial
production of petroleum or its pro
ducts has been developed in Nicaragua
It was said.

bill. under which the immediate rela.
tives OF men who died since their DIS.
charge from the service. would re.
eeive adjusted compensation is under
consideration by majority members OF
the house ways and means committee.
A decision is expected Monday. Spon.
sors Of the proposal favor paying such
relatives the face value OF adjusted
service certificates on the same basis
as is proposed In the bill for service
men generally, This would equal the
amount OF the adjusted service pay
plus IS per cent. They estimate that
the cost to the treasury probably
would not exceed scr, 900 900. and argue
that the payments would be a matter
OF simple justice.

CARTER COUNTY MAINTAINS LEAD
AS MOST ACTIVE, PROSPECTIVE
OIL TERRITORY IN WHOLE STATE

Although third in rank among oil
producing counties of the state. Carter
county still maintainc its leadership
as the most active and prospective
petroleum territory in Oklahoma. With
the Fox field still young as an oil
pool, and the Amerada district just
coming in--indefinite as to possibili-
ties, but assured as to existence-the
figures relative to actual yield in the
various sectors of the state do not
truly interpret concrete conditions.
The statistics reveal that the pro-
duction has fallen off as compared
with months during the year 1921,
but the potential possibilities of fields
in their infancy and prospective areas
assure an output which should again
put Carter county in state leadership
by the end of the year.
Extensive Operations.
Wildcatting and drilling of import
ant extension tests in all parts of
the county is being carried on on a
larger scale than ever before in the
local fields, and is believed is being
performed in more expansive manner
than is any other similar develop
ment in q radius of similar amount
of acreage in any part of the coun-
try Practically every acre of terri
tory in the county is either receiving
a test as portion of a block gath
cred by operators, or else is included
in territory which is now being
secured for that purpose. Many miles
of land are being explored for oil
The intense activity which is ecllps-
ing all previous operations includes
drilling of wells near abandoned"
holes, which have prior to beginning
of the present year been regarded
as dry" but which are now de.
scribed truthfully as not having been
drilled deep enough to warrant de-
scription as a good test
Fewer Dry Holes Here.
There have been fewer genuine dry
holes drilled in Carter county than
in any other area of similar proper
tion anywhere. Wells which have
been put down and which have result.
ed in non-production for the greater
part merely condemn the location on
which they We're drilled and nothing
more as evidence by the proximity
of tests now drilling to them.
Deep holes-meaning 5000 feet or
better-are practically unknown in
this section of the state. Prior tc
the present year, 23OO feet was regard
ed by the majority of operators inter
ested in local fields as deep" How
yer, reports from other sections pro
ducing oil and which bore the infor
nation that guhsers are being brought
in from depths ranging between 3O6t
feet and 1000 feet, and often deeper

have set the oil men thinking and
as n result the depth of real
deep hole has been theoretically deep
ened i'm accordance with brother pc
troleum fraternities, and not until
tests have been put down to deep
depths in various parts of the county
can it truly be said that Carter county
has been more than half drilled. even
though every possible location may
have been tested with 2300-foot hole.
Amerada is Assured.
The existence Of pool in the AM
erada district is an assured fact. De-
velopment at the present time is rath-
er slow, but naturally so, as has oc-
CURED time and time again in the in,-
tial procedure in new fields. For
until the trend of the structure is es'
tablished one way or the other, in
tensive activity is unwarranted.

Hills anticline has started new activ-
ity in territory Immediately adjacent
to Ardmore drawing in upon all sides
of the city for prospective acreage
Prior to the Amerada find, the acre
age about Ardmore was regarded
with more or less skepticism. The
sudden interest has been caused by
either one of two things-the Amer.

favor or else has worked vice versa
