WORK FOR MANY MEN

With plans underway for construction of several
projects in the northern part of Benton county
number of families in this valley will be relieved
from financial distress.
According to Director d. f. Banker of the state
department of conservation and development, APP
prOxinately 50 men will be put to work on the ir-
rigation canal here this winter. The exact nature
of this work has not yet been given but it will be
concerned with maintenance of the system Men
employed on this project will work five days or
thirty hours week at good wages How long the
work will last is not yet known, but this project
in itself will do much to aid the needy here.
The irrigation district itself is now engaged in
some maintenance work. and small crew Of men
is employed. When the work Of improvements at
the Priest Rapids power plant is begun another
group OF landowners will be employed.
One OF the largest county projects to be under
taken this winter: and one on which number of
men will be employed from each section of the
county, is the Benton City Horn road.
While all of these plans are helpful to the valley
because of the work itself as we'll as the number
of men employed, they are all of an unimpressive
nature. The projects are already in existence the
work is merely being done to keep them in repair
and to improve them.
Let us, then, build temple to the depression
1t, out OF this morass of debt and dsheartening
prospects with which we are all now faced we
could take the help offered us and build com
munity hail. what anachronstic yet delightful
thing it would be-
For years the community has needed an audi
torium which would provide ample seating room
and staging facilities for the entertainments put
on here Various organized groups would be de-
lighted at the prospect Of a permanent meeting
place The towns library might find place in
such hall and be able to more readily expand and
serve the community. The possibilities Of such a
hall are innumerable and it's probable benefits
great. During good times" there was no money
for such project Now, while the valley is feeling
the depression at its keenest comes an opportunity
to build Not to take advantage of it would be fool
hardy.
Plans for raising the necessary money for ma
terlals should be started at once Since every Or
ganization will have it's home in such hall there
should be difficulty in arousng enthusiasm.
Let's get started!

Several minor improvements have
been made, or are in the process of
being made, around the high school
building.
A new canvas screen has been pur-
chased which may be placed over the
entrance to the gym when it is desired
to provide privacy for those in the gym.
So far, it has been used during basket
ball practices and dance hours to keep
some of the noise from the rooms up
stairs. It will also prove of great ad-
vantage when decoration for parties is
| being carried on.
The lighting system is also being
changed in the classrooms to relieve
| the glare which is so hard on the eyes
| of students. For the one large globe in
the centetr of each room, it is planned
| to substitute two or three smaller ones,
so that the light will be more evenly
distributed, and there will be less
glare on desks and blackboard.

One Hour With You" We Will Always Be Sweethearts," and What Would You Do" are three of the songs which make the Mau- rice Chevalier Jeanette Macdonald picture, that opened at the Coli- scum theatre last night, as rhyth- mic a light comedy as has been seen and heard lately.
 Though two of the stages favor- ite musical comedy stars, head the cast, One Hour With You" isn't a musical. But it gives its stars an opportunity to present their songs cleverly and with winning art. sr 4e

ZION CO.,. GIvES| WAL TER HUSTON STARRING ROLE.
Lupe Velez and Conrad Nagel Are Also in Capii- i
 tol's Drama of Jungles

It is claimed that when Walter Huston introduced his role of "Deadlegs" Flint in "Kongo,' to the New York Stage, he proved himself one of the most powerful character artists of the current footlight generation.
 Already he has proved himself similarly on the screen, but in "Kongo," which opened at the Cap itol Sunday, he adds to his honors.
 For practically the entire length of this weird drama, Flint propels himself around in a wheelcllair And yet the role is so forceful, that it overshadows everything else in the drama.
 There are tense scenes in this film, further intensified by the constant tf1rob of the war drums signalling the hatred of the black tribes, over which Huston, as Flint, rules with his tricks of voodoo magic.
 Escapes to Kongo Jungle
 Another man has stolen Flint's wife, and after fight in which Flint is left alf-paralyzed for life. this interloper, Gregg, escapes to the Congo jungle, where Flint fol- lows and plots his scheme of re- venge.
 Lupe Velez and Virginia Bruce have roles of emotional strength as the lone white women in F'lint's trading post Conrad Nagel, as the demoralized doctor who wins back his manhood in his fight to save Virginia Bruce from being sacri- feed to the natives by Huston, has a vivid character role.
 A good comedy What Price Taxi and interesting shorts conclude this Capitol program, which Man. ager Eric Paulson does not recom- mend to children.
