Their interests

Guthrie, o. T, Feb. 12.-The Oklahoma
Improved Stock Breeders association

RE last evening, after passing the follow
ing resolutions:
''First-That we hereby tender our sin
cere apprecia ton of the very successful
efforts OF President f. c. Curtis and the
other officers of this association for their
zeal and labors in the organization and
promotion of this association.
''Second-That we congratulate the peo-
pie of Oklahoma upon the very rapid
Improvement of live stock breeks and
the betterment of the conditions of the
live stock rasers in the territory
'Third-Ye thank the Stock Breeders
Association of Kansas for its literature
and encoura cement of this association.
"Fourth-We recommend the appoint
ment of a committee of three on legisla-
ton, that a bill or the proper foster
ing of the nve stock business may be
passed through the next legislature Of
Oklahoma. We also recommend a COM
mittee of three to arrange for an ex-
hibit of Oklahoma live stock at the
worlds fair at st. Louis. We note THAT
this branch of Oklahoma industry has
not been taken up yet, with the view Of
a creditable exhibit at St. Louis.
"'Fifth-We further recommend that the
meetings of this association, the horti-
cultural association and the annual meet
ing of the board of agriculture be ar
ranged all for the same dates. and all to
come under the same program. These
three interests are closely identified and
have everythin gto do with the prosperity
of the farm, and we believe their meet
ings should be mutual and in such har-
mony as will draw the largest attendance
and start the widest information.
''Sixth-We are emphatic for declara-
ton for immediate statehood for Okla
homa. We believe this territory. with
all the necessary wealth and population
and civilization, should no longer be kept
ont of state sovereignty, and we request
congress to give speedy action.
"Seventh-We thank all those who par
ticipated in this meeting. both inside and
inside the territory. They have made
this one of the most successful gather
ings of live stock interests ever held in
Oklahoma.
"Eighth-We thank the Guthrie Com
mercial club and the mayor of the city
and all those who have assisted in the
entertainment of this association.

When visiting with friend or relative

the rules of what and how much to eat

Whitney says that there is a secret as

PRIMA DONNA
VISITS PARENTS
Miss Edith Whitney Back from
Paris.
NOTED ACTRESS Is HERE
French Know Her as La Belle
Americana.

| Miss Edith Whitney, a prima donna
from the Partisan stage, is in the city
visiting her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Cald-
well, 246 Mathewson avenue, and VIII re-
main here for about two weeks in order
to rest up and get some recreation She
arrived in the city Tuesday evening &C
companied by her maid, Engenie Desquar-
tiers, and until last night would not per-
| init any one 10 see her.
Miss Whitney is known in Paris as La
Belle Americana and is looked upon as
being one of the leading figures in stage
circles. She has had a phenomenal rise
and when one considers that she is only
twenty-five years old and having been on
the stage but a little over two years, it
shows that she has unusual talent.
Just what city in Kansas is going to
get the honor of calling Miss Whitney as
its own is about decided in favor of the
Peerless Princess the queen of the south
west country Last night at her home
she was interviewed by a reporter for the
Eagle and she said that she had been
troubled very frequently with newspaper
mer, but she also said that she found
Where am l from, and where do / call
homer" repeated Miss Whitney after
having been asked those questions by the
reporter. well, my home is right here
in Wichita, and truly l am not ashamed
of it,
The Kansas City and Leavenworth pa
pers which have been contending that
Miss Whitney belonged TO them will have
to take a back seat and Keep quiet, for
the prima donna of BOulin Rouge has
declared that Wichita is her home.
That Miss Whitney is a typical Ameri-
can girl one will Immediately conclude
when seeing her. She has friendly ways
and is easy to become acquainted with.
little over two years ago she began
her stage career in Chicago in Florodora.
This was only a light opera but she made
a showing that was effective and had its
tendency for good. After several weeks
in Chicago she went to New York where
she was engaged in and took one of the
leading parts in the Chinese Honey
MOON" in which she made a wonderful
success. From New York she went to
Europe where she has since been engaged.
For some time she has been prima donna
in what is now one of the finest, if not
the finest, theaters in Paris. There she
has been making the real success Of her
life In Paris she has acquired coterie
of friends who consider Miss Whitney
as the star of Partisan stage folk There
is no doubt but what Frenchmen by the
score with titled appellations have flung
themselves before this American girl and
asked for her heart but today she stands
as much for America as ever and it is

very doubtful from her assertions along
that line, if she ever will marry a for
eigner.
Miss Whitney is American in every re-
spect. Although she has had opportuni-
ties on various occasions to haunt her
knowledge of foreign ways and manners
she has not once since coming TO Wichita
acted like she is a great and honored
actress from Paris. Since Miss Whitney
is so genuinely American it behooves
American newspapers to congratulate
her for her magnanimous character and
beautiful nature
Is Miss Whitney good looking? That is
the first question that comes to the mind
of the public And upon seeing her and
conversing with her one will not be long
She is 3 fet seven inches tall and weighs
about 135 pounds She has eyes that
speak language by themselves and, by
the aid of her graceful expressions and
her big, candid smiles they verify sparkle.
Miss Whitney has a high forehead but
not too high Her eyebrows are semi
rainbow lines and are pretty as any pic
ture. Her nose is just the right size and
her face as whole is a perfect model
and an ideal picture.
On top of all these beautiful features
let Miss Whitney smile or just let her
appear before any one and not smile, and
she viii be applauded as beauty
Besides these facts there is something
else yet that goes to make Miss Whitney
a beauty. Possibly there is no other fea-
ture about her that has made for her a
great and lasting nameboth in this coun-
