Mrs. J. C. Girton, the president of

kennels have taken more ribbons than
anv others west of Chicago, and the
value of the cats runs we'll up into the
thousands of dollars. King Cupid,
pure white cat with dark blue eyes,
won the cup at the San Diego snow as
being the best cat exhibited. Robin

take any blue ribbons which may be
hanging around loose, will be entered
in the coming show and is expected to
