NEVADA EXPECTS NEW PROSPERITY WITH GAMBLING Happy Days of Old Regime Expected To Return Ry Earl H. Leif. Vl’. Staff Correspondent. Neno, Nev.. April 2—(UP) —The resorqtion of wide op*n gambling in Nevada under sanction of u newly-elected law brings to the heart of the Nevadan a new promise, a new hope, of early prosperity and good times, Nevada was In Its greatest heyday when gambling flourished. High stakes and affluence have always been synonymous to natives. The entire history of Nevada is interwoven with games of chance in all its forms, faro, roulette, poker, klondike, and mining stock speculation —the greatest gamble of all in the hectic boom era. One of the largest personal fortunes in the state had its inception over the green felt of a poker table. Lured Adventures Gold, silver, hot liquor and gambling provided the lure that attracted the wanderer and adventurer to this territory in sufficient numbers to admit Nevada into the Union. They brought into exist-, ence such towns as Tonopah, Gold-

TO ALL WHO SUFFER STOMACH AGONY. GAS AND INDIGESTION Money Back if One Bottle of Dare's Mentha Pepsin Doesn't Do You More Good Than Anything You Ever Used.

Just one tablespoonful of Dare’s Mentha Pepsin and in ten minutes the gas disappears, the pressing on the heart ceases and you can breathe deep and naturally.

There s good reason for a JOYOUS EASTER Its spring — there are an abundance of new Murrays here—and Easter is the time to wear them. Colorful imported fabrics of tweed—cheviot — flannel—in new shades of tan, gray and gray-green $25, S3O, $35 With 2 Trousers TEEPLE & PETERSON

I Held. Virginia City, Rhyolite. Hull . Boon* of old 1 imero stii recollect when hundreds of thou- ■ sands of dollars exchanged hands i without the flicker of an eyelid. Gambling houses were often the (only permanent structures in mlnI Ing camps providing a haven from | the harsh desert elements. Courts I have held sessions, weddings have been performed, babies have been . born, dying men have spent the I twilight hours of life in the I warmth. No Opposition When the state legislature was] considering the wide open gambling! bill, which it later passed, there I was no concerted opposition. 'I The "unwritten Code” of Nevada I has prevailed in recent years tol >i erating all hones, gumbling, de •Ispite the stern laws of statute ■books which make it a felony, j ' Anything is permitted under the, new law, with astoundingly severe ■ penalties for dishonesty. The press, public and business 1 men were generally favorable to ’ lifting the lid on gambling. Now • the revenue from its licensing will j 1 go to the state, counties and cities. •, to care for their poor and aged, to educate children, to build good ' roads and support the government. > . Camera 35 Years Old Lewiston, Me.. April 2.—(U.PJf—A | I home-made camera whjch she con-' I structed 35 years ago. is owned by I Mrs. Ella F. Ricker. The lens is an ordinary magnifying glass. There is a finder on the side and a weighted slide to expose the nega-; tive. The camera is leathercoverled with a handle taken from an ‘old valise.

Oh! What blessed relief; but why not get rid of such attacks altogether? Why have indigestion at all? With this wonderful stomach medicine you can overcome indigestion or dyspepsia, or any condition that keeps the stomach in constant rebellion and distress and one hottie will prove it. Ask for and insist on getting Dare’s Mentha Pepsin, a pleasant to take, health building tonic stomach elixir that Holthouse Drug Co. and regular pharmacists anywhere ;in America guarantee.

NAVY GUARDS EXPERIMENTS ■ WITH SECRECY Laboratory Divided Into Divisions Each On On Task Washington, April » —<U.R> —The fleet gathers for its annual man.covers; a naval conference ponders intricate questions on tonnage iln Lindon; squadrons of airplanes dive and zoom overhead in a demonstration; u President boards a battleship to visit neighboring I lands. Such ar» the times when the United States navy comes into the public’s eye. But beyond those superficial glimpses are scenes the public never sees, stories it seldom sees. The story the navy kpows lis one of unceasing training 1 and preparation, of constant vigilance throughout the world, of neverending efforts to aid the fighting forces with the resources of i science. Experimental Laboratory In Washington, for instance, the navy department maintains an experimental laboratory. There more than 200 trained scientists work in the utmost secrecy. Some of them i toil over test tubes, complicated ‘electrical apparatus, or other mate- ' rials remote from guns and’armorI plate. » The experimental work is organized into revisions: Radio, underwater sound, metallurgy, physical chemistry, heat and light, therodynamics. and a consulting division. The work of these units is so closely guarded that one division seldom knows the nature of i the experiments being carried out ‘ by another. Occasionally the navy announces its successful experiments. For 1 example the development of one of the marvels of this radio age—a broadcasting set compact enough to be carried in an airplane, jret so 1 powerful that its signals can be picked up over a range greater than that of the average land station. An Occasional Leak Once in a while, too, there is a “leak.’’ The navy recently was much annoyed by the publication of a picture of one of its pet I achievements, the submarine airplane. This plane, said to be
