Enid Makes Good
Her Pledges to the
c. University

Enid, Okla, Jan. a. President b.
V. collars OF Christian university has
issued the following statement.
IN 1906 eight cities Of Oklahoma
put in competitive bids for the loca-
tion of Oklahoma Christian university
Enid secured the school, owing TO the
fact that her bid was considered to
be somewhat larger than that of any
other point A fine educational plant
has been developed at Enid and the
school has now done about three and
one-half years Of successful work.
I'VE wish to announce that Enid
has now completed her contract with
Oklahoma university having paid the
bonus agreed upon and also having
fulfilled her contract respecting schol-
arships and other things. We wish to
announce this, so that people every
where may know that complete and
final settlement has been made.
THE school is now practically out
OF debt. Il has about $4,000 in en-
dowment notes, temporary subscrp-
'tions yielding about $1,000 year and
r. A. Long Of Kansas City, Mo. has
made a proposition to give $4,000 on
the first 100000 of endowment. An
other friend Of the school writes us
that he has arranged to give $4,000
on endowment and $4,000 toward a
ministerial fund.
"The enrolment Of the present year
is about is per cent above that Of last
year and is gradually increasing. Ok

a finer record in its three and one-half
years of history than any similar
school in the southwest has made

HER PROOF OF IDENTITY
Cashier Of Telegraph Company Thinks
It Sufficient and Pays the
Money.

Many are the stories told regarding
ladies who visit banks, telegraph Off
ces and similar places and are asked
to conform to certain prescribed busi-
ness usages, such as properly indors-
ing check or presenting proof OF
identity. One of the latest is told by
the Cleveland Leader in Town Talk:
Several days ago handsome wom-
an, handsomely dressed end accom-
panied by two small boys, called at
the Western Union office to cash a
telegraph money order she had re-
ceived from her husband, who was
In Chicago on business. Cashier John
II. Cox asked the woman all the
usual questions about Identification,
but with no, satisfactory results. Ab-
solutely. she had no documentary proof
Of her Identity As a last resort, Mr.
Cox said Now, madam, / would like
very much to give you the money this
order calls for. Can't you prove to me
some way that you are Mrs. Blankg
Hesitating a moment, the woman ex-
claimed: Why, yes, of course i can.
How stupid Of me not to think of it
before Then, pointing to the two
boys, said: These, sir, are my sons.
She got the money"

GROW EGYPTIAN
COTTON In us.

Washington, D. O., Jan. 24.-Twelve
million dollars is a stake worth play
ing for That Is the value OF the
Egyptian cotton imported into the
United States, which is the greatest
cotton-producing country in the world.
The variety Of cotton most extensively
grown in Egypt is known as the Mis-
Ahfi; it has a soft, rather crinkly fiber
Of a characteristic light brown color
that renders It especially useful for
certain classes Of cotton goods in
which the natural color of the fiber is
retained.
The best Egyptian cottons bring a
price second only to that paid for the
highest grades of Sea Island, being
used solely in the manufacture of the
finest goods. They are especially
suitable for mercerizing, taking this
process better than the native Ameri-
can cottons, and are largely used for
mixing with silk and for the manu-
facture Of cloths in which high fin
ish and luster are required.
The United States department Of
Agriculture is endeavoring 10 develop
Egyptian cotton culture ia the United
States AS a result Of experiments
that have been carried on for the
past seven years several distinct types
have originated from the stock Of inn
ported seed Of the Nit Aft variety
with which the work was begun.
A description Of the leading charac-
teristics Of these promising varieties
and strains and the methods followed
in cotton-breeding work in the south
west will be found in bulletin 200,

Earth Slides Along

newspaper reports of slides of hun

ANOTHER CONGRESSMAN.

As another evidence of the growth
of Utah comes the news that our state
may have added to its representatives
in Washington another member.
utahns will then be able to say with
other states, Hon. So-and-So, one of
our Congressman, when speaking to
public bodies away from home. It
will be much more cosmopolitan than
to say merely "our Congressman" as
though there were but one man in
the state worthy of the title. For this
very reason, we welcome the news
that our present Congressman will
probably have company in the great
halls of Congress.
However. before we arrive at that
distinguished position, we must first
get the Congressman. In order to get
him, the future Congresses must have
43S or more members. Many states
are averse to having such big
body for ones of the houses of legis
lation. 1t is too large and unwieldy,
they say. Therefore, we can expect
considerable opposition from some of
the states. The one redeeming thing
in our favor is that some OF the
states which would object to the in
crease, will lose representative il
their objections should be successful.
AS they are averse to any such
readjustment Of things, we can reas.
onably expect that they will favor
the larger Congresses which are es-
sential to our success in winning an.
other Congressman. Let us hope
good fortune will be ours that we may
