HOLLAND OPENS
Guns AGAINST
zUYDER ZEE

AMSTERDAM. Hollands war
against her traditional enemy-thesea
is on in earnest. Work has been be-
gun on the huge dyke that will sever
the North Sea from the Zuyder Zee
making the later a lake from which
the water will later be pumped. The
resulting reclaimed land will be at
least $50 square miles.
An army of workmen are engaged
on the enormous work, which it is pre-
dicted will last from twenty to thirty
five years. The pre-war estimate of
the cost was $80,OOO,OOO but it is now
believed it cannot be accomplished for
less than $125,OO0,0OO.
The government authorized bond is
sues to raise funds for the work, ex-
pecting the revenue from reclaimed
land to pay both principal and inter-
rest soon after the water has been
drawn out and farms established in
the old bed of the shallow Zuyder Zee.
The plans call for construction of
huge concrete blocks to be laid on the
bottom of the sea-arm the entire
length of he dyke, from the island of
Wieringen to Piaam, on the Frisian
coast. The distance is about 20 miles.
On this concrete foundation will be
piled rock clay, sand and concrete
until the dyke is built from seven to
ten feet above sea level. 1t is planned
tolay double track railroad along
the top of the dyke to be used in lat
er constitution and finally for traffic
from northeast to southwest Holland.
In the meantime similar but small.
er dykes will have been constructed
through the lake, dividing it into five
sections The water will then be
pumped out of each section, and the
ground allowed to dry and then it will
be cut into farms enough to support
a population of 100000. The re-
claimed territory will compromise a
new and seperate province of the

YOUR CHRISTMAS BUYING

Now that we are fast approaching
the Christmas season it is but fitting
to call the attention of Las Vegas
people to the advisability of making
it just as happy for those nearest
home as we possibly can. And in
this respect there are many ways of
shedding sunshine right around home
that lot of people are unacquainted
with.
Take the matter of the Christmas
present itself. Had you realized that
the Christmas gift bought right here
at home brings out more happiness
than the one purchased in a distant
city? The gift itself is just as gooG
if purchased here, and the one who
receives it will be just as well pleas
ed with it. But when 1t is bought
here at home the clerk who sold it
is made happy, and the merchant in
whose store you purchased it-and
he is your neighbor-has additional
cause for wishing you and your fam
lily a merry Christmas.
From now on to Christmas this pa
per will contain announcements of
those merchants who are in position
to sell you Christmas goods that are
just as pretty, just as servicable and
lust as reasonably priced as you can
get elsewhere. If the thing you want
is not in stock they will quickly get
it for you So why rush to some dis
tant city and buy that which you can
get at home, and hand your money to
someone you will never see again
and from whom you couldn't get a
favor no matter how badly you might
need it? Think it overland then
watch closely the columns Of this pa
per. Watch them for the ads of your
neighbors-your friends-and read
those ads with profit to yourself.
