lighting a cigarette with one match
arises out of the Russian funeral rites,
in which three altar candles are lit by
the same taper. To apply the same
method Of illumination to three worldly
things. like cigarettes, was regarded as
an act of impiety, and therefore as
unlucky.

TONDRO TO BUILD
BUSINESS Home
ON STATE STREET

Building operations will start i'm.
mediately on the new $4,000 home
of the Valley Auto Supply Company,
according to w. A. Tondro, presi-
dent of the firm. The contract for
this work has been let to Emery
Girard, local contractor, and the ac.
cepted plans call for one of the
most up-to-date buildings of its
kind in the valley.
This new building will be locat-
ed on State street on property ad-
joining the home of the Press. It
will be one story in height and of
reinforced concrete construction
throughout. Modern drive-in facili-
ties will be provided patrons to aid
them not only in transacting their
business but also relieving traffic
congestion as well, as the driveway
will go through from the street to
the alley making the building easy
both of access and exit.
The building will occupy 60 feet
on State street with depth of 100
feet with office accommodations
and plenty of floor space for the
stock. An arcade will be erected
to conform with the buildings now
in the block and will add to the
architectural beauty of State street
between Sixth and Seventh which
now boasts the beautiful office
building of the Pacific Telegraph
and Telephone company and the of
fices of the Imperial Valley Press.
Tondro has been engaged in bus
mess in Ell Centre for many years
and formerly occupied quarters on
Main street next to the Bank of
Italy building. His building and
stock were destroyed by fire about,
a month ago, and since that time he
has been looking about for suit
able site upon which to erect his
new building The firm now occu.
pies temporary quarters in the
Graham Paige agency just east of
the Press building.

Grey's Story Is
Basis OF Film

Zane GreY'S splendid book. "By
the Light Of Western Stars which
mas been read and enjoyed by mil
lions, is the basis for the picture of
the same name which comes to Fox
Imperial theatre tonight, as a Para
mount feature, with Richard Arlen
in the leading role, and a capable
c4st including Mary Brian, Harry
Green, Regis Toomcy, Fred Kohler
and William lie Marie seen in sup
Iort of the star.
BY the Light of Western Stars -
is real western thriller such as
only the mind Of Grey could pro-
CHcc. 1t is not the slush stuff too
often seen under the name of west
Crn,' but real presentation of an
episode that had its counterpart in
hundreds of cases throughout the
west.
Arlen is seen in role different
from those he has heretofore at
tempted. Green, famous as Il Jewish
comedian, is seen as Yiddish cow
boy, and stellar work supplies plenty
Of laughs for the production.

 by New Clue

Washington. July 3 (UP)-A new theory Of the disappearance of the |. s. collier Cyclops during the World war - which has remained one of the strangest mysteries of the sea - was being investigated today by the navy intelligence division.
 The theory is that dynamite was placed in the engine room of the vessel and that it was blown up without a trace in West Indian waters.
 The Cyclops, with a complement of 15 officers and 221 men. and car rying 57 passengers, disappeared after leaving Barbados for Izlti- more on March f. 1918. T. carried a cargo of manganese from Brazil.
 Nothing ever was heard from the vessel aftorward. No wreCkage nor bodies were found, and despite years Of investigation, all attempts to solve the mystery were fruitless.
 The latest line Of investigation on which the navy is working is fur nishod by the diary of wartime agent. which states that somo clever agent placed dynamite in the engine room Of the ship. The investigators have not announced the results Of their new lnQUirN
