sites to be developed is that at Boul-
der Canyon. Here the waters of the
Colorado are compressed between
towering rock walls only a few humid
red feet apart. A dam 600 feet in
height would provide water power
to generate 100000 horsepower of
hydro electric energy. Such dam
and plant would cost about 100000
900.
Los Angeles $50 miles to the south
west, would be the first large market
for the power thus developed. A
large potential market, however, lies
within 200 miles to the southeast in
the mining districts near Phoenix.
The Southern California Edison
company, in planning distribution of
power, in event of it's application for
one of the major power sites is
granted, has planned to carry power
as far as San Francisco, 500 miles
distant.
The possibilities of power develop
ment on the Colorado may best be
visualized when it is understood that
in its 1900 miles of length the river
drops more than 5000 feet. In the
$50 miles between lGlenn Canyon
and Boulder Canyon there is a drop
of $500 feet. And the annual volume
OF water passing down the gorge be-
tween Glenn and Boulder canyons
would cover an area of $4,000 acres
to a depth Of 1000 feet!
Flood Safeguards
It is this precipitous descent, max
| ing possible vast power development,
which also makes imperative river
control to regulate its flow and safe
guard the fertile Imperial valley Of
California from destructive floods
Such is the topography of the
country through which this river
flows, however that the sites for
maximum power development, such
as Glenn and Boulder canyons. offer
small opportunity for water storage
for irrigation or for flood regulation.
Dams for these purposes must be
| built farther upstream and on the
more importan. tributaries.
All these conflicting factors make
necessary a general comprehensive
end co-reIated deyelopmept
With this program de.ri'ely estao-
lished, the big question remaining 20

Construction of a big cotton mill

note to Jim. 1t was the Gus

Dinner thanks to Rosa having
gone off with Lennie Stone, was

I've never felt closer to Virginia,
nor more grateful for the privi-
lege of being close to her. The
one thing that recurred like a
refrain, but without any charm
ing witchery refrains strive to
have, was the unhappy thought
Of Phoebe's estrangement from
her sister.
After dinner I ran over to
Mason Towers to call on Evvy's
decidedly shadowy parents and to
ask about her. She had been
away for long weeks and though
Tom and I had done everything
In our power to get some word
to her, we were not sure that she
had received a single message.
1t was decidedly irritating to think
that she might still be wearing
herself out in a wild-goose chase
for Dick West, when I am con-
vinced that he's come back to
the scene of action, as his tribe
has a way of doing.
The region itself brought back
all too vividly the tragic death Of
Sheldon Booth and the day when,
out on the path near the spot
where Sheldon was killed, Envy
poured out the truth about her
feeling for Sheldon Blake. I could
hear her telling of the love she'd
recognized when 1t was too late.
Every step Of the way thronged

KEEPING THE
PORES OPEN
BY Brice Belden, M. D.

I'm HIS famous book, ''Erehwon,"
Samuel Butler described an
l. ideal state. Regarding health
in that imaginary country, Butler
wrote that II a man falls into Ill
health. or catches any disorder,
or fails bodily in any way before
he is seventy years old, he Is
tried before a jury of his coun-
trymen, and II convicted 10 held
up to public scorn and sentenced

may be.
There are subdivisions Of i'll
nesses into crimes and misde-
meanors, as with offenses with
ourselves-a man being punished
very heavily for serious illness.
while failure Of eyes or hearing
in one over sixty-five, who has
had good health hitherto. is dealt
with by fine only. or imprison-
ment in default Of payment.
1t may very we'll be that a high
civilization will yet adopt laws
governing health, violation Of
which will be punished in the
manner suggested by Butler.
As things are now we have to
rely largely upon public health,
education and persuasion. Erring,
stupid and negligent parents and
other persons cannot be dealt with
otherwise, save in the case OF
gross offenses.
One of the greatest Of health
sins is inadequate care Of the skin.
which has a great breathing func-
ton as we'll as an eliminative one.
The least we can do Is to bathe

civilized conventions forbid Its

clothes, introduced by missionaries;

NEW GOWNS
FOR OLD
BY Rita Stuyvesant-

IN HIS season your winter ward
robe probably needs a little
l. fixing over and with the aid
of perhaps one new frock, you
will be able to appear quite smart
until we see the first signs OF
spring. Whether 1t Is your fur
coat that needs remodeling. or
YOUR one-piece frock, or your
dance or dinner gown. a few new
touches will add considerably to
your appearance.
For instance, II your fur coat
is from last season and Is worth
remodeling, you could have IL
made into a beautiful wrap for
dressy wear by adding fur to 1t,
or Il might be cut to hip length
to fashion one of the newest
swagger sport coats.
One of the simplest frocks Is
the sleeveless slip-on model. cut
from tricotine. wool Jersey or vel
vet. II is especially attractive In
navy or black. II you wear a
r,Iimpe or Persian crepe de chine
and q girdle of wooden beads, you
will be delighted with the result
It IN very simple to make both
this frock and guimpe yourself at
A considerable saving.
A peasant blouse with long XII
mono sleeves tied in at the wrists
and collarless, is quite effective.
This model slips on over the
head and is finished with an
elastic at the waist. II cut from
forty.inch material folded in half
no that the selvage will come to
the wrist, usually no piecing or
adding of sleeves Is necessary.
Navy blue crepe dc chine
makes another attractive guimpe
Of a more conservative type and
might be finished at the neck
with a narrow hemstitched col.
lar. The sleeveless frock also
affords a pleasant opportunity to
wear white blouses that have
been mended and cannot be used
with q coat suit.
II your georgette dance frock
Is soiled why not have II dyed
black? II you add broad silver
girdle and corsage of silver
grapes and band your hair also
In silver you will have prac-
tically a new costume at . very
moderate cost
