FAlREST WOMAN
In the Indian Territory is nrs. E. K.
Waller of vinita.

The honor of being the most
beautiful woman in the Indian
territory has been awarded by a
Jury of eminent artists to Mrs. X.
R. Waller, of Vinita.
As Vinita paid homage 10 her
beauty last sprIng by selecting her
from among her fair daughters to
contest with the .airest of :he ter
ritory, for the honor of being ap-
pointed maid of honor at the
court Of the Queen OF Beauty at
the 81 Louis Worlds Fair, SO
have these esthetic students oi the
beautiful paid their additional
tribute
the Romans tersely described
beauty as multitude in unity"
The most classic features. the
most glorious eyes,, the most DEL
icate coloring of velvely cheek, or
winsome lines of ruby tinted lips,
We're not honored by the poets
with the magic word:
Beauty was to the Romans, as it
has been to the esthetic world ever
since. a com bination of all these
charms wrought in one.
No one feature to detract in its
peculiar attractiveness from the
others, but blending in perfect
harmony. Such is Deauty-and a
gracious Nature has so endowed
with lavish hand Vinita's fairest
daughter, Mrs. Z R. Waller.
The fairest of Vinita-the fair
est of the Indian Territory-the
home of the iairest of the world.
The triumph of Mrs. Waller is
the triumph of Vinita, and the
judgment of the judges is the tri-
umpb of perfect beauty.

As TO Medical Examinations.

Editor Chieftain-I observe in
the last issue of your paper a
notice from the medical board TO
physicians within their jurisdic-
tion. There is nothing peculiar
in the notice or in the fact of such
notice being given, as like boards
exist and such notices are fire.
quently given in the surrounding
states and territories. But still it
seems rather exceptional that the
board should continue to examine
from year to year qualified and
worthy physicians, receiving legal
compensation co therefor, and at the
same time afford them and the
public no protection against irreg-
ular and unqualified doctors. In
writing the above I am not find
ing fault with the board, which is
composed of excellent medical
men, but rather in the nature of
an inquiry, whether the law that
exacts fee from qualified and
reputable physician affords him
no protection against those that
are not qualified and who do not
pay the examination fee? n.
