ASCERTAIN
SENTIMENT
Capital Committee Feels
Way by Means Of ReSO-
luton
Special by United Press.

Special by United Press
Oklahoma city, Dec, lS.--In order to
ascertain the sentiment Of both houses
in regard to a capitol site, the senate
committee on capitol location decided
to introduce a concurrent resolution,
without the force Of law but contain
ing the substance Of the bill which it
is hoped to enact later.
The resolution was introduced in
the senate this afternoon and the bill
of which the resolution contains the
essential features will not be intro
duced till later.
The committee has selected the
northeast Or Culbertson site and the
resolution today introduced carries this
provision, but it is believed that the
opposition, including the Putnam, Clas-
sen and Workman interests, viii carry
the fight to the floor OF the house and
senate and should the resolution be
defeated, which would indicate disap-
proval Of the northeast site, it is
thought that the senate committee
will refuse to present is report and in
definite delay may result.
Both houses convened at 2 p. m. In
the senate, Senator Roddie Of Ada is
leading a hard fight against the reso-
luton accepting the northeast site. 1t
is believed that he opposes the resolu-
tion at the instance of Gov. Haskell
who is said to be anxious to have
action postponed till morrow. The
lower house is simply waiting for the
senate to dispose Of the resolution.
Senate Session Monday.
Asking for an extension Of time in
order that minor details Of the capitol
propositions could be put in satisfac.
tory shape, Senator J. Elmer Thomas,
speaking for the senate capitol com
mittee, Monday afternoon, declared
that final and complete report Of
the committee would be submitted to
the senate Tuesday afternoon at 2
O'clock.
Senator Thomas said the report was
prepared and ready for submission and
the committee had expected to present
it Monday afternoon, but the signature
of the contract between the state and
the citizens of Oklahoma City was not
ready. The senate accepted Sena cor
Thomas partial report and an adjourn
ment was taken until 2 p m, Tuesday.
Senator J. B. Thompson OF Pauls Val
ley, chairman Of the senate capitol
committee. declared positively that the
report would be printed Monday night
and distributed to the members Of the
senate Tuesday afternoon. He refused
to make public the contents until after
its submission, but commented upon it

 IN THE HARNESS NEW SUBSCRIPTIONS ADDED TO THE GUARANTEE FUND. Committees Are All Working and There Is Not a Cloud on the

H. [ Latham, ]. E. Long. A. F. Cat ter. Selim Nicholson and Nat Reiss. and the securing of q number of added subscriptions to the guarantee fund.

It is not matter of great hurry. It is believed that it would not be worth while to begin listing rooms until about a week before the meeting for the reason that if rooms were listed now many ofsthem might be rented in the meantime and would have to be wiped off the slate before the aviation visitors began arriving, making just that. much work for nothing It has been thought better to mot cross any bridges until they are reached When the time comes to list rooms and pre- pare for the visitors the matter will be taken up with rush and be made

q special order until it is accomplished ' The canvass of the situation has con vinced the club that there will be nc trouble in providing the necessary ac- commodations for all who come, if the citizens will respond as heartily to the call when the time comes, as they have always done during fair week. There
 are more people here now than at fair
 time. owing to the time of the year,
 but there are also a hundred or two
 more houses in use than at that time.
 The publicity committee is ener- getically taking hold of it's work and in addition to preparing for it's news paper publicity shortly to be launched, it has already telegraphed for posters which are already available for use except for the printing of date lines, which can be quickly done.
 The committee on grounds will have the fair grounds in order in due sea son. There is little to do except to take down the fence between the two tracks for a few rods to give the avi- ators plenty of room for starting with out ruffling their wings or clipping their pin feathers.
 General Godfrey retired. of the T.. $ A. appeared before. the club at the directors meeting yesterday morning and said that in his opinion if the proper steps were taken the military authorities could probably be induced to send out a detachment from Fort Whipple on a practice march, so timed that the soldiers would arrive here during the meeting and add another touch of color to the big show. The directors appointed General Godfrey as the best fitted man to undertake the effecting of such an enterprise, and he said he would endeavor to see if it could be done. The government through the war department has practical interest in the development of aviation. and the army>and its offi- cers cannot be too well informed con- corning it.
 Enthusiasm is added to the coming show by the exploits of Hamilton in southern California since the Los An geles meeting The fact that he is do- ing wonderful things is important to Phoenix. for he is one of the men de- pended upon to make the Arizona meeting q big success.

FROM WoMAN'S POINT OF VIEW

Of women's clubs there are many and only fair proportion of them have q reasonable excuse for cXis- tencc But women need to be taken out of the ruts they wear by a cease less round of monotonous tasks. and clubs serve that very purpose. The average woman regards one club with favor. and the few cannot find too many; but the single club woman is liable to have deeper interest in her organization than the few whose names figure in several diversified objects
 I really believe that it is absolute Iy necessary to feminine health to have some interest outside of the daily occupation. Home women, in particular, are prone to gloomy thoughts when they remain closely indoors and see few faces outside of the family circle. The business wo- man. like the business man. is stimu lated by daily rubbing of elbows with new people, by hearing fresh argu- ments and new thoughts. and seeing unusual sights. She can be left to spend her spare time at home in safety
 The most recent addition to the growing list of women's clubs is one which ought to receive the commen- dation of sensible persons of both sexes It might reasonably be ex- pected that an association which aims to make life fine art would appeal to the men of the family, for it means knowledge of the common sense life. q frank discussion of very-day happiness. of the troubles that make for misery. the little and big things of daily living Of course. there will be found remedies for mistakes and carelessness and a stimulus for avoid ing them in the future.
 It would be worth while to keep a list of troubles for which to seek as- sistance and another of aids to hap piness to be passed on to those who need them. It is to be hoped that the club will not be confined to it's birthplace-New York-but will put forth branches which will reach every corner in the world where women have the least desire to be clubable. There is no good reason why happi- ness Should not be paramount, for it is wonderful sweetener of life.
 The loveliest women of my acquain- tance are happy women, not because

How New York Danes Keep Young. Recently young New York Society woman received her monthly bill from a downtown beauty parlor. This par ticular bin amounted to Fifty-two dol lars for the month, which was, per

 some "grande- dame" in sables extracts a perfumed ten-doliar piece from her gold bag and losses it to Nancy with
 an air of lofty grace. One of these attendants confided to a friend in an unguarded moment that among the To-

NOT WHAT HE MEANT.

Captain Bradley $. Osborn, the fa- nous sailor. said in New York. in the course of vigorous defense of Dr. Cook:
 "Peary. in criticising Cook, only criticised himself. He was like the old uncle at the zoo.

they are more fortunate than other women. but because they are bent upon extracting every drop of Sweet ness from life to coat the bitterness which comes into all lives. Unneces- sary bitterness is avoided. and that means an elimination of hard thoughts and an attempt to add to the hap piness of others. To be happy in an atmosphere of misery is too difficult to be even thought of. so there must be something done to lift the pail if happiness is really desired.
