A stirring vivid drama has come out of Hollywood. Tonight at the Coliseum Theatre, an audience will sit breathless while the powerful| classic by Dostoievsky, “Crime and Punishment,” comes to life on the| screen. In the picture the performances| by Edward Arnold, who plays the inspector, and Peter Lorre, who is seen as the murderer, Rackilnikov, can undoubtedly be set down as two of the finest the Screen has even seen.

T—Working| lat the job of being a home owmer 'can be as much fun as playing around in a dream house and can be infinitely more profitable. If, instead of being emotional about the beautiful paint, the! | leaming metal, and the marvelous lgadgets, more people would go through the mental process of tak-. |ing their prospective home apart |to see what it is made of, they would |get both fun and profit. Even a dream home must have a tangible shell—including foundations, walls, floors and roof—built to definite |standards if the house is to last | This is the doctrine that the Fed- | eral Housing Administration is preaching. It is the principle cn which demonstration homes are he- ing built throughout the country. These houses must be of durable materials that will last and will be |a good investment, both for the home owner and the bank which might "xmanco the building of such hous- - |es. | The men who finance house build- | |ing don't get emotional about at- | mosphere and color in a house. They are miore interested in how a | house will 100k and hat its condi- tion will be in 10 or 20 years. There jxs only one way to be sure about | | these things, that is to know what is behind the glitter. | | Among the réquirements set up | by the Pederal Housing Administra- |tion for insured long-térm mort- |gages is the stipulation that con-| | straction must be of proven dura- | bility. In this way the Housing | Administration is helping the pros- | pective home owner fight the jerry-' builder. Experienced buildérs, encouraged by the Federal Housitig Adminis- | tration and responsible fihancial in- | stitutions, are creating attractively designetl, durable houses of dura- |ble materals at little of no greater | jcost than houses of less permanent ;materlals, These houses are being built for people who do their| dreaming ‘at night and ' their think- | ing by day. Naturally, such houses | are a good investment for both the builders and the home owners. RUTH WOODWARD, W. F. THOMPSON, MARRIED HERE At a candle-light ceremony with the Rev. John A.
