By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, November 25.--Jack-
son Barnett, Creek Indian. testified
yesterday that he had no desire to
give away his oil millions while he
was alive, because he needed the
money to "eat off It," He said that
he had no remembrance Of signing his
thumb print to papers giving $780, 900
to the American Baptist Home Mis-
sion Society for construction of Indian
schools. A like sum was given his
white wife.
DO you want to help the Indian
schools?" asked Judge Knox, presid-
ing at the equity action brought by

piled.

Vague Ideas About Money.
Barnett. who lived in poverty on
his Oklahoma grant land until gush-
ing oil made him a millionaire, showed
by his answers that he had no more
idea of the value OF money than a
child. He said that until he became
rich he had done odd jobs, for which
he never received more than rs cents
a day.
Asked do you know the difference
between thousand dollars and a
hundred dollars?" he replied, "A hun
dred dollars is not quite as much as a
thousand"
To only one question about money
and its value did he reply with as
sured knowledge-he was sure his
cigars cost cents apiece.
He told Judge Knox that he bought
about two suits year and he much
preferred getting his own meals to
having them prepared and brought to
him by servants.
When the judge spoke Of Barnett s
homes in Oklahoma and California
the 79-year-old Indians eyes lighted
with pleasure. He confided that he
did not like New York and was anx-
ious to get back to the West.

many instances. includes the invest

1.-The responsibility Of handling such
transaction Is. indeed, great" Mr..
Whiteford said.
The lecturer urged that in order
properly to serve clients in the COM
munity real estate men should not
only study the technicalities Of their
profession, but also closely follow and
become interested in the affairs, the
development and happenings Of their
city. This, he said. is necessary in
order that they may be fully up to
date on all regulations, changes pro-
posed and prospective developments
that would affect realty conditions in
general.
Mr.. Whiteford pointed out. that real
estate men were not only charged
with the responsibility Of transactions
in the sale Of real estate. but that
they also had the added responsibility
Of investing large sums Of the public's s
money in real estate securities. and
that, therefore, a thorough study Of
the angle is very necessary. The
management Of properties and estates
also is intrusted to real estate men.
according to the speaker, and, placed
in the hands of competent men, re-
suits in considerable saving in money
and much more efficiency in handling
Of various properties.

W REAL ESTATE
CLASS. INCREASES
Enrolment on Opening Night
Shows Largest Number
Heretofore Listed.

The opening Of the Y. NJ. c. A.
course in real estate last Monday
night showed. the largest enrolment
tered for the course. Sixty-six stu
dents registered on the opening night
and a considerable number will prob
ably be added later. Several realtors
and associate members are taking the
course, but 1t is significant to note
that the majority of the students are
from the general public. This fact
indicates that the desire Of the Real
Esate Board to spread information
and education in regard to real estate
is having a beneficial reaction.
The class was opened by Leonard
W. De Cast, associate general secre-
tar of the Y. NJ. G. A, who introduced
James p. Schick, executive secretary
Of the Washington Real Estate Board,
who is in charge, conducting and out
lining the subjects Of the class.
The first lecture was given by Rog-
er j. Whiteford, general counsel Of the
Washington Real Estate Board, who
took for his subject THE Real Estate
Business" Mr.. Whiteford traced the
history and development Of real estate
from its inception.
Reason for Ownership.
The general reason for the owner
ship OF real estate, the speaker de.
clared, is basicly the result of the
trend of development of human So
ciety. Tracing the situation in re-
spect to real estate today as evolv-

ing directly from conditions starting
with the ideas and customs of no.
madic tribes, Mr.. Whiteford pointed
out that when these wandering fam
lilies finally settled down on lands they
felt desirable. ownership became
known because of occupancy, and
occupancy was regarded as the indi
cation of ownership. Later it was
felt that the heirs of the occupants
of the property were naturally to be
regarded also as the owners follow.
ing the death of the leaders or rela
tives.
Later, he pointed out, with the con
slant development of the human mind
and customs the occupant was con
sidered to have title to the land, and
still later the idea of occupancy was
discarded and the theory of title own
ership Of land brought about in vari
GUS ways, including purchase.
The speaker said that in view OF
the fact that all land is owned BY
varied number of purposes, deals and
transfers Of property are necessary
The fancieS Of persons for properties
in certain locations for certain uses
and sale of property to raise money
etc., have all added to the vast bust
ness of dealing in real estate, said Mr..
Whiteford, who pointed out that the
service of the competent realtor
should be of such a. high standing
that he would have thorough and
adequate knowledge of values and of
the technicalitieS necessary to the
conduct of the real estate business for
the protection of his client and gen.
eral public.
The speaker said that real estate
men should not occupy such a conf
dental and important position in the
business world without a proper and
thorough study and training of the
business and Incidents relative to the
proper conduct of the business, and
that those persons engaged in the
realty profession should have at heart
the full consideration of the public
good.

Players of Washington. which already
have presented Z productions at IA
performances.
Among those who have honored
them with more or less patronage is
included. Mrs. Coolidge, the First Lady
Of the Land, who has never failed to
give her support to effort to brighten
and to improve child life in its various
activities, while at the Eastertide
performances the children of the en-
bassies, legations and the cabinet are
always guests of honor.
Their director is Lenore Marie de
Grange, who has given up professional
stage activity to devote her time to
work with children ranging from tiny
tots to college girls.
Their purpose is to awaken ideals,
through the study and portrayal of
character, to develop individual grace,
poise, responsiveness and the joy OF
expression-in other words. to give
children clean, wholesome, artistic en-
tertainment.
No more ardent worker in the cause,
Davis, wife Of the Secretary of Labor
and an exemplary type Of motherhood,
who despite the care of a family Of five
and her manifold duties as a cabinet
hostess, nevertheless finds time to CO.
operate in every way possible to pro-
mote this civic and educational ac-
tivity for children of the National
Capital. Her two little daughters,
Jean and Jane, are enthusiastic mem
bers Of the organization. and Mrs.
Davis finds time to watch their
progress. to make their costumes, even
to attend rehearsals that other moth
ers may find example in the mother
and her children.
This commendable work. however,
cannot be carried on without support,
especially Of the mothers Of society
who are needed and are looked to for
sincere support, which, it is said, has
not been given as abundantly as the
needs require.
