WOMAN'S CLUB.
WILL BEAUTIFY
CITY CEMETERY
WORK TO BEGIN TOMORROW
BY MEN EMPLOYED BY
COUNTY COUNCIL OF UN-
EMPLOYMENT RELIEF

The Woman's Club is planning
to make the city cemetery beau
ty spot. Work on this project will
start tomorrow morning when
Washington and Royal palms are
to be planted.
This work is to be done by men
employed by the Monroe county
unemployment relief council.
There are on hand 172 of the
palms donated by the Woman's
Club from the club nursery. These
are to be planted just inside the
cemetery fence at intervals of Is
feet.
1t is also the intention of the
club to plant stephanotis so adj
vantageously as to completely COW
or the fence of the cemetery. There
is enough of this beautiful twin
ing shrub now rooted to carry out
the project.
Those to whom the idea has been
suggested agree with the club
members that with the palms be-
hind a foreground of stephanotis,
an enchanting view of floral and
tropical beauty will be presented
to the beholder.

STRAND THEATER

The title of Carole Lombard's
latest picture, showing tonight at
the Strand Theater, may be "No
More Orchids" but that had moth
ing to do with Miss Lombard-ac-
cording to her the title should have
been PLENTY OF ORCHIDS.
More than 100 of these soft
petaled, luxurious cream-white
flowers were worn by beautiful,
blonde Miss Lombard in this scin-
tillating story of wealthy, bril-
liant girl whom the depression
forces into an undesired marriage.
Each day of the twenty-one it
required to produce this picture.
George Rhein, prop man on the
production, carried to Miss Lom-
bard's dressing room five orchids
in a corsage, dripping with the per-
suasive and dreamy perfume they
exude. Whenever Miss Lombard
was needed for a scene, it was
not a bit difficult to find her-all
the assistant director had to do was
to follow his nose!
Miss Lombard felt that the
orchids had psychological effect
upon her performance that she had
never experienced before, the same
effect that a woman experiences
when she goes out for the evening
in perfectly fitted gown, touched
off with just the right corsage. It
contributed an impetus to Miss
Lombard's role, she said, that made
the brilliant, carefree and easy
going manner of her character so
much easier to portray.
| "No More Orchids" from the
Liberty magazine story by Grace
Perkins was adapted for the screen
by Keene Thompson. Gertrude Pur-
cell wrote the screen play. Walter
Lang directed the production,
which includes Walter Connolly,
Louise Closer Hale and Lyle Tai
bot in principal roles.

Choosing a theme from the 23rd
Psalm, Reverend John : Stradley,
pastor of First Methodist church,
addressed the Harris school Par
ent-Teachers Association yesterday
afternoon in this school. The
speaker read this beautiful psalm
and quoted from it in his talk,
Principles of Living" in which
was brought out the friendliness
Of God, and showed that we should
always look more to the Book OF
Life than to material things, es-
pecially in this time of depression.
Reverend Stradley brought out
the point that few members of the
Parent-Teachers Association stop
ped TO consider that the Division
street school and the Harris school
Parent-Teachers Associations rep
resent more than 1000 children,
therefore they represent 1000
souls. In his talk he showed that
the hearts of the parents and the
hearts of the teachers were in this
work of caring for needy children.

This price indicates the re-
placement value as of July l. To-
day this item stands at 32.2 cents,
reflecting the aforementioned
material price advances.
When the cubic foot costs Of
last February were tabulated it
was then thought that costs had
shrunk to the limit and, in fact,
this prognostication is supported
on some types of construction
which in current calculations re.
main stationary, notably subur-
ban home construction in the
lower brackets.
Later ReCeSsiOns
But over the range of 228 items
enumerated further recessions
from February'S cubes did occur,
these ranging up to as much as
10 per cent in some instances.
Prevailing conditions in the
construction industry have made
it extremely difficult to arrive at
present costs. Dow Service cubic
foot figures are based on net
field cost thus excluding the ele-
ments of cost Of property, title
search, clearance Of site. finance
charges, insurance, contractors
profit and architects fees.

Building Costs Increase
Sharply Since july

Almost any building can be
erected now for 57.5 per cent of
what it would have cost to erect
an identical building in 1926,
writes Myron L. Matthews in the
current Dow Service Daily Build
ing Reports.
During the first half of this
year when construction costs were
at their lowest, the building dollar
bought exactly twice as much as
the 1926 building dollar.
Due to Materials
The rise in costs since July l.,
1888, has been due, so far, solely
to increasing prices of building
materials. Soon-juSt when is un-
certain-another increase in con-
Struction costs will occur and
when it does it will reflect more
strict adherence to existing wage
scales.

CLIMB AGAIN

Bank clearings are again quite

the earlier weeks since the un-
usual squirt in July. The total
this week for all leading cities in
the United States. as reported by
Dun & Bradstreet, Inc, of S4,-
674,115,O0O was 1914 per cent
above that for the same week of
last year.
At New York City, clearings
were $3,258,721,000, an increase
of 11.2 per cent over a year ago,
while the aggregate for centers
outside of New York of $1,415,-
$4,000 was 81 per cent higher.
Seventeen of the 20 cities out
side Of New York show larger
clearings this week, with notable
gains at some Western and
Southern points. Included in the
latter are Chicago, Minneapolis,
st. Louis, Kansas City, Omaha,
Atlanta, Dallas, San Francisco,
Portland and Seattle.
A substantial increase also ap-
pears at Philadelphia and Pitts
burgh this week. The total for
the week exceeds that of the
preceding week by $263, ,695 900,

duction for the same two weeks

NEW YORK, Oct. % Q.N.SJ.
The stock market dozed along

animation to close better. This
is bringing the appellation of the
creeping bull market of 1888"
The idea seems to be that the

better market here, but one with
out any shooting and ballyhoo.
Which wouldn't be bad idea.
Furthermore, traders are watch
ing their step until the ideas on

the English and Dutch would

another factor.
Weakness in some of the leaders
last week was due to heavy Mid"

more interest in the rails, though,
