WATER PROJECT STARTS!
Is Men to
Begin Work

Word was received from w. P.
A. headquart rs at Yakima to
start work on the Nespelem wal
terworks. This was good news to
all of Nespelem, as they have been
working and hoping for this prof.
ect for long time. Mr.. Moran dis
trict director at Yakima, will put
crew of men on the project
within a few days.
The city council has completed
housing arrangements for twenty
five men. They have remodeled
and equipped a part of the old
school house with sleeping quar-,
ters and for cooking, also recrea-
ton hall.
According to the W. P. A. ruling,
only men On relief can be put to
work, and so it will be necessary to
bring men in from some other
place. Nespelem has ibeen fortu-
nate enough to keep off the relief
rolls, and it seems pity that now,
when so many of our own people
need work, that men should have
to be brought in from some other
communities.

as warm weather sent small rivers
down from the Lael and Purtee
heights. A deep gully was cut past
the Columbia and for while
threatened the found t i n.
Through the aid of volunteer la
Dor and the city, the "creek" was
flumed past the danger spots.
