The Heartbreakers. the Hough &
Adams merry musical comedy. which
opened the present engagement yester-
day afternoon. is one of the oatchiest
of the many Mort f. Singer produc-
tions. In it Mr.. Damerel is given
splendid opportunity to practice all the
wiles of the thoroughbred matinee idol,
with a song here and there and much
love-making to bring sighs from the
feminine portion of the audience-and
perhaps envious looks from the others.
Among the songs which Mr.. Damerel
sings during this engagement is one
new one, It's Your Eyes, Your Smile
and You. with lingering melody and
sentiment It was heard for the first
time yesterday afternoon and called for
several encores.
In the prima donna role is a Kansas

rapid advance in the musical comedy

was seen to better advantage than in

seemingly especially suited to her.
Her charming voice was heard yes

Through its two acts there is riot of

Preparing FOR The Panama Exposition
At San Francisco.

Al san Francisco.
Norman. okla. Jan. 30.-The Geol
ogical Survey here is already layinl
plans for an exhibit OF Oklahoma.
mineral resources at the Panama Ex
position al San Francisco in 1918
Every effort win be made to have dis
play creditable to the wonderful re
sources OF Oklahoma and if possible
to surpass even the exhibit at the st
Louis exposition which attracted sucl
wide spread attention and caused 81
much comment. DR.. d. w. Ohern, di
rector Of the survey. said today;
1T is early to do anything but tc
lay general plans. So far as I know
there has been no official action taken
towards having our state represented
at the great fair. but those in power
have always endeavored to show the
great resources of the state, so it is
safe to presume that this policy will
continue in regard to the coming
worlds fair.
Just at the present certain of our
minerals and mineral products lack
suitable markets, more especially is
this true of clay. gypsum, and similar
products. Much of the depression in
the market at the present time is due
to the recent wide spread drouth which
has resulted in Stacking the opera
tions, yet it is nevertheless a fact that
We should have an enlargement of the
market for our products. This en-
largement can be brought about to a
very great extent by proper demon
stration and advertisement.
THE policy of our state in inyesti-
eating and displaying our mineral re-
sources is bringing gratifying results.
Texas, our burly neighbor on the south
with an area of nearly four times that
of Oklahoma, received 1900 900 dol
lars for her mineral >products during
1909, and 1S,OO0,OOO in 1910, while Ok.
lahoma secured 29,OO0,O0O and 33,OOO,-
900 dollars for these years respective
ly. In Oklahoma the value of petrol
cum alone exceeded the entire value of
Texas mineral output According to
estimates furnished by the United
States Geological Survey our coal out
put during the last year was nearly
twice as great as that of Texas in
