PASTOR AND WIFE
 FESTIVAL GUESTS
Dr.. and Mrs. Wake 1T Speaker at Zion Evan-
 gelical Gathering

With evident interest and appre- ciation members and friends of Zion Evangelical Lutheran church, gathered for the fall festival of the congregation, followed the travels of the Walker family to and from Australia, as Rev. and Mrs. John Currie Walker of the Second Con- gregational church presented in word and picture their recent trip across America and down to the South Seas. As the colored slides and motion pictures were shown by Mrs. Walker, Rev. MT. Walker ex- plained them and added interesting personal touches and matters of in- formation which aided greatly in the appreciation of the pictures.
 The meeting was opened with Q devotional period in charge of the pastor of Zion church. At the close of the meeting an offering of over $400 was lifted to help meet the obligations of the church. George Clausen, accompanied by Herbert Bohlin, played Q violin offertory. Refreshments of coffee and cake

CHAPTER XIV

For nearly three years. ever since
Don Pedro had gone south to the
founding of the Mission Santa Bar
bara, Eulalia had lived in as chaste
state as the old Spanish virgin.
At first she had denied herself to
him through sheer lassitude, then,
realizing his need Of her, his SEEM
ing dependence upon her, she had
purposely withheld herself. She had
determined that there should be ia
vor for favor. For the privilege of
holding her in his arms, he was to
return with her to Mexico.
The plan had seemed beautifully
simple to her, but when she men
toned it to her husband he had
turned on her a strange unbelieving
look, tugged his beard, muttered
something about prostitution, and
set up camp cot in his office by
the preside gate.
So three years had passed. Don
Pedro grew little leaner, and his
face little wolish with cleaning
eyes and grizzled beard, but always
stern, uncompromising. And Eula-
liza, with everything at stake upon
her attractiveness, grew more beau
tiful, but nervously alert. Her black
eyes were wary and predatory.
One day Angustias marched bold
ly toward her with determined

country only is my home, the home

claimed suddenly. ''Why should I
sit here sniveling in my beard be-
cause my woman torments me?

kicked the overturned cot.
"Come to her bed! Not I! / will
60 out and seek the company of
worthy priests and good soldiers,
pioneers all, and we will talk man
talk, and drink deeply together"
He took his gun down from the
wall and cuddled it in his arm.
"And you shall go with me, my
friend, and we will kill the hugest
bear in all California;"
In her room at the palacio Eula-
liza was writing lengthy document.
When she had finished it, she poured
sand over the paper, then read the
contents carefully. What she read
evidently pleased her, for she smiled
many times. Then she called for a
servant, and the letter was delivered
to a courier riding south with Off
cial dispatches.
''Where is the Governors frank
on this?" inquired the courier when
he received it.

'Humph," grunted the courier,
and tucked it carefully away in his
bag.

CHAPTER XVI

Eulalia watched the Governor
preparing for his departure with
out a word. His impedimenta
seemed to consist mainly of small
casks of aguardiente, and skins of
wine; of guns and ammunition. He
wore his disreputable leather jerkin,
and toughest boots. He packed a
few other belongings haphazardly
into his knapsack.
When he was ready, he bowed
before his wife ironically and said
with mock reverence.

go, and 1 know not when I return.
Do not grieve for me, but control
your impotence for my company
until I return, which will be in due
time, and according to my own free
will. Adios!"
Eulalia said nothing, but drew her
brows together darkly.
She watched Don Pedro and his
party gallop away across the pa
background toward the great gate
which was swung open and ready
for them.
A few miles outside the preside,

Boulder Dam Required an Expenditure
of $165,OOO,OOO Before 1t Was Completed

Boulder dam was built between
the rock walls in Black canyon on
the Colorado river, that same
treacherous torrent which carved
out the Grand canyon and which
forms the Arizona-Nevada boundary
line near Las Vegas, New.
Such a project to control the dan
gerous floods of the Colorado, and
to provide against the drouth peri
DDS which ensue after it's spring.
time rush to the gulf with the melt
ing Rocky mountain SHOWS had been
conceived many years before it was
begun.
Even the location in Black canyon
or in Boulder canyon, 18 miles up
the river, had been agreed upon by
engineers. But there was no way of
financing the project, which cost
$165 900, 1000, until the demand for
power in the rapidly growvg south
ern California cities and the inter-
mediate area made it feasible.
1t is to be paid for entirely out of
earnings. Actual work on the main
project was completed in five years,
two years less than anticipated. AT
times there were more than 5000
workmen employed in the night
and-day operations, and trucks, ma
chinery and other equipment of I'M
heard-of proportions were built just
for the project.
The dam face is 726 feet high.

jaunt, but instead she'll go to work

and dramatic and everything but
goofy.
Speaking of eft Happened One
Night" it was revived recently in
New York, and lot of people who'd
heard about how funny it was but
had missed it the first time round
had chance to see it. And the
addicts who went to it over and
over when it was first released
found it just as funny as ever.
The revival of Valentines "The
Sheik," seems to have been ill-ad-
vised. Any picture that old is bound
to look funny nowadays. And the
generation of movie goers that has
grown up since the days Of Valen-
tinO just couldn't understand why
he had been such a ld-beater.
Some of them reared with laugh
ter. They thought Agnes Ayres, the
heroine, a bit too fat-though in her
day she was considered stream
lined! However, no matter what the
young folks thought of that picture
and the other Valentino revival,
sThe Son of the Sheik,' they
brought mobs to the theaters and
money to the box offices.

1t looks as if George Arliss had
been tempted into returning to Hol-

Goldwyn has picture called "The
Exiles" on the fire, based on the
stories of the many famous men
who have had to leave their homes
in Europe because of political trou-

few books, which he had moved
from the palacio, were on a rough
shelf. And in one corner was his
camp cot. She lifted her nose dis
painfully at the crude furnishings as
she remembered the splendid fit

Origin of the "Annie Oakley

According to American Tramp
and Underworld Slang" edited by
Godfrey Irwin, the phrase "Annie
Oakley" means free ticket or pass
to an amusement or entertainment.
The passes were punched with holes
to prevent their being sold as regu-
lar tickets and to prevent money be-
ing refunded if the show did not 60
on, as is customary with paid adj
missions. Thus, they resemble the
cards that were used for targets,
after the famous rifle shooter, Annie
Oakley, finished shooting at them.
Annie Oakley performed with the
Buffalo Bill circus for II years. The
term originated in the circus world,
but is now included in common slang.
