BOULDER DAM STARTS BOOM IN LAS VEGAS Proximity To Power Project Gives Impetus To Nevada Village Ry R. E Baldwin Las Vegas, Nev., March 27 —(UP) Las Vegas, Nev., March. 26 —(UP) —Forgotten mining town—one of the ghost camps of the West—Las Vegas today is staging a come back and appears destined to become the metropolis of the Sagebrush State. Yellow gold made Las Vegas what it was 20 years ago and what it is today; white gold will build this town of 7,000 persons into a city that may become the most important western manufacturing centers between Salt Lake City and the Pacific Coast. For “Vegas” is but 27 miles from the proposed *100,000,000 Boulder Dam project; it is the only railway center within miles, and it will have the cheapest electric power in the world when the project is completed. Under the Swing-Johnson bill Nevada wil receive one-third of the power generated at Black Canyon, where a dam 600 feet high will be built by some ( 10,000 men Vegas will have dumped at its feet between 100,000 and 200,000 horsepower by hydro-electric energy. Vegas “boosters” see great times coming and the boom is already on. Besides being the recreation point for laborers employed at the mammoth project, Vegas will become the logical manufacturing center for a number of industries. alt* is Copper Smelting Plans The Guggenheim copper mine at Ely, not far away now ships its copper to Perth Amboy, N. J. for smelting and refining. When cheap power comes to Vegas it is expected the copper will be sent here In southern Utah are great beds of iron ore. Vegas hopes to turn the ore into steel. At El Dorado Canyon, 35 miles south, are gold mines that have produced $5,000,000 in ore. Forty miles to the southwest at Good Springs are great deposits of led and zinc And Vegas has its eyes on the nonmetallic. Only 50 miles away are borax deposits that have produced $4,000,000 of the crystalline. Sixty miles distant are silica sands for glass making said to rival those of Belgium. Gypsum, salt, lime, magnisum and clay mines abound. Vegas now offers to the resident and the visitor all that is left of those hectic days of ’49, but the one-time peril of roaring six-shooters is as nothing compared to the modern day menace of "wildcat" land operators. Money undoubtedly will be made by some who are fortunate to know the country and to pick safe assured ventures, but thousands are being or will be swindled by sinking their savings after listening to the fairy tales “Feels Like New Life Is Flowing Through My Body” Chef Gains Health And Happiness Through New Konjola; Gratefully Indorses It

MISS MARY HORRIGAN "I feel that it is iny duty to convey to all sufferers my amazing and wonderful experience with Konjola,” said Miss Mary Horrigan, 4608 Roosevelt place, who is the leading chef in Gary, Indiana. “What a wonderful thing it is to be restored to health after an almost complete breakdown. Refreshing and sound sleep was denied me. My nerves were shot to pieces. I was able to eat a meal only after I had prepared special foods to tempt my appetite. I tired easily and felt wornout an hour after starting the daily duties. “I was inclined to scoff at a single medicine accomplishing all that others failed to do, but my head waitress recommended Konjola so highly that I finally gave It a trial. A new feeling of energy and strength segmed to take hold of my entire system. My nerves became quiet and settled. The former health troubles remain only as a dim memory. Konjola is worth more than all the gold and riches in the world.” Konjola is sold In Decatur, Ind., at Smith, Yager & Falk's durg store, and by all the beet druggists in all towns throughout this entire section.

| of unscrupulous land sharks. Wildcat Ventures It has been estimated that in anti around Las Vegas Itself more that $500,000 has already been sunk In wilt! cat real estate ventures and that the list is growing. The town is surround ed by “tracts" anil bear Ing fanciful street names near the des ert. The town limits of lais Vegas—- “ The Meadows" —enclose 11 square miles. In the days when mon wort I taking gold from the ground near Tonopah, Vegas was but a watering holt and outfitting station. It has and did have an ample supply of artisian water, and is the only oa sis In a radius of 200 miles of dry desert country- But when men no longer found gold in great quantity in the Nevada mining district. Vegas flattened and became a "ghost city." But the boom is on again. In the old days Vegas was a “man’s town," and that Is what it is today. The bootlegger is on the spot. The newcomer and the tenderfoot must have amusement —and they do not go without. If you want to gamble you may, for Nevada permits it. There are no roulette or other effeminate games. The game is poker straight, and as the state license charge is $l5O a table a month, the percentage charged players is high. Vegas is “booming” again. —o Defendant Also Wanted As Juror In His Case Chester, Pa„ March 27 — (UP) — “Lafayette Twaddell!" chanted the court crier in Chester County Court recently when jurors were being summoned. Three times he cried the name of Lafayette Twaddell. As he turned to the judge to report Twaddel missing, the judge noticed a quiet little man, sitting at the attorneys’ table, trying to catch the crier’s eye. “Are you juror number 49, Lafayette Twaddell, of Chester*’’ queried the crier. “Yes, that’s me,” Twaddell replied, •‘l’m defendant in the next case. Last Words We don’t know how the tune to a swan song goes, but the words are in the Congressional Record.—Detroit News.

RATS DESTROY MUCH PROPERTY Lafayette, Ind., March 27 —’UP) — Two hundred milion dollars worth of food Mifil property destroyed annually by ruts in the United States represents a loss that is, to a great extent, preventable, in the opinion of G. <’• Oderkirk, rodent expert of the United States Bureau of Biological Survey cooperating with Purdue University’s Agricultural experiment station. The enormity of damage by rats is appreciated perhaps only by those affected by their depredations. Oderklrk said. Every citizen should realize the relation of the animals to community progress, especially from the standpoint of public health, he continued. “The need at present is for direct application of control methods, particularly in cities. These population centers contain many so-called rat incubators where rats breed in places of filth. Control measures can be applied at a negligible cost by individuals. “The city governments of two large cities in the west, Tacoma, Wash-, and Portland, Ore., have pioneered a pioject of rat control under the supervision of L. Couch of the U- S. Bureau of Biological Survey and the results obtained in less than two years show the pratcicability as well as the need for similar propects in most cities throughout the nation. "At the end of the first year of the project in Tacoma, 250 business and 100 apartment houses were freed of the pests. Hordes of rats have been destroyed cn public property such as public markets and refuse dumps ITS I WOIOEBRIL WAI 10 RELIEVE UGLY ECZEMA In 20 years, soothing, invisible Zemo has seldom failed to relieve even the most stubborn cases of Eczema and itching skin.

KEEP LOOKING YOUNG The secret of keeping young is to feel young—to do this you must watch your liver and bowels—there’s no need of having a sallow complexion—dark rings under your eyes—pimples—a bilious look in your face—dull eyes with no sparkle. Your doctor will tell you ninety per cent of all sickness comes from inactive bowels and liver. Dr. Edwards, a well-known physician In Ohio, perfected a vegetable compound mixed with olive oil as a substitute for calomel to act on the liver and bowels, which he gave to his patients for years. Dr. Edwards’Olive Tablets are gentle intheiraction yetalwayseffective. They bring about that natural buoyancy w hich all should enjoy by toning up the liver and clearing the system of impurities. Dr.Edwards’OliveTablets are known by their olive color. 15c, 30c and 60c. 1
