DREAD MAKING GIVES
 PLACE ID BREWING

OLYMPIA, Dec. 15.-A large part o the night cost of living is due to the demand sof the average person fol breads and pastry baked away iron home.
 Breadmaking in the home is becom Ing lost art, MT. E. L. French, direc tor of the department of agriculture declared today, while home brewing is almost back to the important position it enjoyed in the middle ages.
 A bushel of wheat on the farm is worth S5 cents. As bread delivered by the grocer it costs the consumer s6.5O bushel. Bread made from Washing. ton wheat can be had in London, after being transported nearly half the cir conference of the globe at but little over hall the price it commands in the city where the flour was milled from wheat grown within a radius of two hundred miles.
 The difference between the price of wheat and the price of bread is made up of service. In other words a wom- an pays the high price of $65O a bush el for the wheat which goes into the bread used in home consumption

SAYS ACTOR OFTEN
 WORTH S50o WIFI:

LOS ANGELES, Dec. 14.-Lloyd R. Hughes, leading man for Mary Pick ford, Colleen Moore and many other screen artists, takes issue with the re- gently published statements of Con- way Tearle that physical acting is not worth a larger salary than $500 per week.
 While I respect Mr Tearle I do not agree with him that acting is worth no larger salary than $500 per week." says Hughes.
 Acting is as muCr an ar, as writ ing, painting or any other creative force. The art of acting-real acting, such as MT. Tearle and others of his class are capable offs creative work. To create a great characteri- zation is to present work of art that must compel box office power' re- gardless of whether or not the person who performs such a characterization has ever been heard of before"

10O MILLION TO
 BUILD B|G BOULDER
 DAM IS REQUEST
Next Congress to Be Urged to Appro- priate Big Sum for Colorado
 River Project

DENVER, Colo, Dec. 15.-The sixty eighth Congress of the United States now in session, will appropriate in the neighborhood of S100,O0O, ,O0O for the gigantic Boulder dam project on the Colorado river, if recommendations of the United States reclamation serv. ice are adopted.
 Plans have been perfected in the Denver offices of the Reclamation Service for construction of the dam which will cost between s40,000,000 and s5O,OO0,0O0 and also for a power project in connection with the dam that will cost a similar sum-
 According to F. E. Weymouth, chief engineer for the Service who has been consulting with his board of engineers on designs and cost estimates, the pro- posed Boulder Canon Dam and power plant would make possible:
 Protection of life and property in the Imperial Valley through the con- trol of floods on the Colorado River.
 Reclamation of some 100000 acres of land below the dam.
 Development of a continuous flow of 800,000 to 100000 kilowatts of cleo tricity-providing power for industries in California, Nevada, Arizona and southwestern Utah.
 Storage for irrigation and power purposes of 34,000,0OO acre feet of wa ter.
 The repayment of the tremendous cost of the project to the government would come through the sale of cleo tric energy in reasonably short time
 The dam proposed is TAO feet high from it's foundation in bedrock, no feet below the surface of the water. It is about HOO feet wide across the top. As planned the dam would be more than twice as high as the high est dam now in existence-the Arrow Rock dam near Boise, Idaho, which 351 feet high.

LIGHTS 0N KITES
 GUIDE RUM CRAFT
St. Lawrence Bootleggers Are Aided by Confederates Operating
 On Shore

ALEXANDRIA BAY, N. Y., Dec. Is Kites carrying lights are being used to signal bootleggers by confederates liv- ing along the St. Lawrence River near here. The beacons of light far into the air are used to guide motor boats that ply between Canada and this locality.
 For some time enforcement officers and customs men have been aware of the fact that the rum boats were be- ing guided by signals from the shore and in couple of instances farmers have been taken in custody for signal ing with lanterns the smugglers laying off the coast.
 The kite scheme however. is a new one and apparently used for the pur pose of deceiving enforcement men In the first place it is hard to tell in the depths of the night who is flying the kite, and the speck of light in the sky looks not unlike star. Only the slight difference in color and motion caused by the swaying of the kite il the wind shows the difference"

LONDON, Dec. 15.-Although the Bishop of London has found much sup port in his charges that London parks are full of immortality, he has been more frequently attacked.
 Canon Durell, rector of Clapham takes issue with the Bishop of London and declares that "spooning' couples should be allowed to use the parks and open places for their romancing.
 While there may be great deal of Evil in London,'' said the Canon, i've can see no harm in man and wom' an loving each other in public, now ever much it may offend the sensibil- ities."
 "The young people should be given the fullest possible opportunity fo young people to do their courting and I am certainly not going to count the large number of young couples who are to be seen on the ground by Clap ham Common on Sundays"
 There is considerable difference, be- tween immortality and impropriety."

COST OF EDUCATION

The cost of education continues to
increase from the primary up thru the
colleges. The cost for year to edu-
cate a scholar in the high school
varies in different States. In the Dis
trict of Columbia it was last year
S47.20. In the State of Washington
it was S49.81, in Nebraska S527i, in
Montana S59.61.
In Penns Grove the past year it was
S5S.27.
When we consider that is only $1.50
a week, so cents day, it seems small
yet the total in the aggregate is inn
mense. Yet it is worth all the money
spent for education.
Said Benjamin Franklin: "If man
empties his purse into his head no
man can take it away from him. An
investment in brains always pays the
best interest"
