mart Keenan, has brought to lite the
yeritable picture of tortured soul.
The Bells" will be shown again to-
day at the Muse.
June Elvidge, playing in The
Zero Hour" has a story based on
tie workings of fake clairvoyants and
mediums. She plays the part Of one
OF a pair of sisters. the daughters
OF a veteran clairvoyant. One OF
the daughters elects to follow her
fathers footsteps while the other re-
fuses and goes to work for young
lawyer who has sworn to drive them
from the city. The developments
that follow bring a crisis into the
lives of both of the girls and through
the discoveries made Evelyn, one
of the girls, wins the love of the
young lawyer. Miss Elvidge plays
an interesting dual part, that of both
OF the sisters, one striving for what
Is good and the other attempting to
live by her wits. "The Zero Hour"
will be shown again today at the
Sun.

Maupin Says Discharged Sol.

On Irrigation Projects;
Benefit State.
From a Staff CORRESPONDENT.

Lincoln, Dec. l5.-(Special.)-
The government may easily solve
the problem Of employment for the
returning soldiers, or at least those
from Nebraska" said Will Maupin
OF the publicity department, the
other day. And it can furnish the
employment without cost. There
are two big irrigation projects in
Nebraska, one under way and one
IN course Of construction. The Ger
l:.g-Fort Laramie irrigation project
is already financially provided for,
the government having set aside the
necessary money and appropriating
it is needed The first units of this
project were let to private contrac-
tors, but now the reclamation SER
vice has taken over the work and
will handle it.
Operated by Electricity.
"A hydro-electric development is
being put in at the headgates near
Henry, and the drag lines will be
electrically operated. The rapid
completion of this work would not
only furnish remunerative employ
ment for hundreds of men, many of
them skilled laborers, but would
speedily open all immense area to
diversified farming.
The proposed irrigation project
in Phelps and Kearney counties
would not only insure splendid crops
every year on vast area but would
furnish employment for many men
for two or three years.
These vast irrigation projects con-
structed by the government would
go long ways toward solving the
labor problem and would not cost
Uncle Sam a cent. Every dollar
expended by the government in their
construction would be repaid by the
landowners receiving the benefits.
And what it means to the develop
nent and prosperity OF Nebraska is
beyond computation.
More Money for Farmers.
"The completion of the Gering-
Fort Laramie projects means three
or four more beet sugar factories
in the North Platte valley, which
would mean added millions of rev.
enue for Nebraska farmers.
These two projects have their
counterparts in many other sections
of the west. Nebraska is, or should
be, intensely interested in the plans
recently outlined by Secretary Lane
for the development of the arid
and semiarid districts of the west"
