Peculiar West Texas
Creek Disappears

AUSTIN. April 17.=Pl-An-
nouncement by the State Highway
department that a bridge would be
constructed across Wild Horse Greek
in Culberson county, brought TO
light some interesting facts con-
corning the stream. said to be the
only one in the Southwest whose
waters enter neither the Gulf Of
Mexico nor the Pacific Ocean.
Beginning near Maria. the creek
winds northwesterly for about 100
miles and then disappears into the
desert without a trace. IL has at
tracted the attention OF scientists
and a few surveys have been made
in an effort to verify the theory
that the stream disappears as a sub
terranean river. The theory has
never been proven.

registered! Lord only knows how many they turn down and how many actually are looking for jobs! Paul Collier - he's a newspaper friend of mine - Collier tells me there's an actual need for about $40 extras day. One of the offi- cials told him that in 1929 there was just one woman in all of those thousands who averaged five days of work a week. I haven't got a very good head for arithmetic, but Collier was telling me this just yesterday and it stuck by me. Ac- cording to some statistics issued by Central Casting, the average wage paid to an extra is S9.13 day. Collier spread it out over the number registered and the average daily employment and figured that it would be something like A cents day for each of them"
 Rormer stopped abruptly, realiz- ing that his recital was not very heartening to one who had hoped Q win her way into pictures by the extra route. I'm not meaning to discourage you" he said lamely.
 You're not" she said, smiling a little crookedly. "One of the off cials explained that it was his duty to acquaint me with some of the disappointments I would be sure to encounter. He made it very clear why they felt it was neccs- sary for me to have enough money 10 last me for a year"
 Dan said, Well, you're the kind that's bound to get ahead anywhere. I wouldn't have gone mathematical on you if I hadn't thought that. If you can get a screen test, now. I wish l could cultivate the ac- quaintance of somebody important and get him to give you one.'
 Anne told him she had rather he wouldn't.
 But why not ?' he asked, Not that I could promise anything, but I'd like to-"
 Because" she said softly, "Id like to be able to tell my father that 1 had done It all myself.
 Rorimer said he understood. He held up his water glass, and his eyes sought hers.
 The music calls again" he said. Do We dance?"
 We certainly do.'
 Spoken like a true friend! But first a toast; a toast to Anne Win ter. May she succeed beyond our widest dreams; may all Hollywood fall at her feet"
 He leaned q little nearer, smil- ing into her dark eyes. And" he said, may she never forget good old Dan Rorimer. r. f. . Come on, let's dance"

 In the Blossom Room the lights were subdued and gay laughter floated above the steady murmur of many voices. The orchestra swung into action as they were being shown to their table, and Dan told her that it was in honor of her entrance.
 They knew you were coming" he said. DO you like to have celebrities pointed out to you? If you do, there's Charlie Chaplin over there. See the table with four men at it?"
 But l thought Charlie Chaplin had gray hair?'

 Anne laughed. If you call that singing-''
