PROOFS-.NOT BLARNEI

At the beginning Of this year, the pre-
diction was made by the city engineer
and Others that building in Ell Centre
would reach close to the half million dol
lar mark in 1880.
The prediction in some quarters was
considered booster stuff and was taken
with grain of salt. A goodly number
felt confident. however, that the predlc-
tiOn was not an idle one.
Nor was it. With little more than
nine months of the year passed, the total
for the city is S524.Sl0, ana with over
two busy months still remaining in 1890,
there is every reason to believe that the
total will exceed the 100000 mark
There is no getting around proof of
this kind. Over half a million dollars
represents considerable construction.
There have been no large permits issued
to initiate the total beyond what it really
means. 1t covers much activity in COM
mercial and residential building and is
legitimate yardstick by which the prog
ress of the city can be measured.
Satisfactory as the total is, we do not
hesitate to go on record now by saying
that it will be dwarfed by next years
total.
FL Centro has Just begun to grow and
within the next five years it will expand
SO that those returning here after an alb
sence of several years, will hardly recog-
nize the place.
In the light of increased building per-
mits. increased postal receipts. larger
bank deposits and similar proofs of
progress and prosperity, there should be
no need to talk confidence here. The
person who has not an abundance of con-
fidence in Ell Centre and Imperial Val
ley. present and future, certainly has
large amount Of other territory IN which
to make his home and ii ne is as wise as
he thinks he IS. he will head for there

EAST ST. LOUIS, III, May 21.- Edna May Cooper, former movie actress who deserted Hollywood for an aviation education, proposes to fly around the world. Accompanied by a pilot and navi- gator, whose name has not been announced, she plans to start in July ito promote international in- terest in aviation among women. 7 1 A new Ryan brougham, christened Miss Magellan, jr.," and a sister ship of Colonel Charles A. Lind bergh's transatlantic monoplane, will be used.
 The take-off will be from Parks airport here, where Miss Cooper passed the government examina- ton for a license as private pilot.
 Her course, mapped out with Lieut.. Leslie Arnold, one of the Army's round -the-world fliers in 1924, includes flights to New York, Labrador. Greenland, Iceland, Scot land, through the larger European cities, Russia, China. Siberia, Alas ka, Canada, and final arrival at Hollywood.
 "The trip is not in any way a stunt" Miss Cooper said, but will be carried out on a business-like basis and only when all conditions are favorable to safety of the sep arate flights.
 with some financial backing already assured, will endeayor to earn expenses for the tour through personal theatrical ap- pearances and through a series of written articles covering the jour ney."
 Miss Cooper began her movie ca recr at the age of 15 years and has played dramatic roles in more than 50 productions.

MISSISSIPPI GAMBLER"
 NOW SHOWING, PALACE

There can be no further doubt about the star who has become definitely the most romantic per sonality upon the screen-for Jo- seph Schildkraut in "The Mississip- pi Gambler" the Universal all talking production, which opened at the Palace theatre last night unequivocally establishes his right to the title.
 In picture, the very essence of which is romance and romantic drama, Scnildkraut carries a gla- nor both of personalities and of portrayal which marks that particu- lar type of part as pre-eminently belonging to himself alone. As the Mississippi packet gambler of 9 few decades ago, he is at the same time the villain and the hero, and equally beloved as both
 After the gambler inveigles his victim into the poker game, un- knowing that it is the father of the girl with whom he has fallen in love that he has fleeced, the unique s"kick" of the plot unfolds with intense dramatic suddenness It all hinges upon the girl herself, a ravishingly beautiful Southern belle played by Joan Bennett, whose performance is in class with Schildkraut's own.
