CHICAGO NEW YORK " BOSTON ————— (Official City, State and County Newspaper) Value of the Air Derby ‘The recent National air races were instructive as well @s spectacular. One of the most impressive things about them, however, “was a thing that most of the spectators barely noticed. 4 sat Each day, while dozens of army and navy planes were grandstands, with scores of other planes waiting, on the te og ground, for their turn to go up and make some new ‘i thrills, there was a steady stream of planes taking off ‘and landing on a remote section of the airport, away from the crowds. ‘These planes came and went without making any j) fuss. Nobody gathered around to watch them. No ex- até cited spectators mobbed their pilots to ask for auto- 4 “8 craphs. No photographers made life miscrable for them with clicking cameras. ‘These planes weren't taking part in the great exhibi- } tion that had drawn the crowds. They were just the air- J TE mail planes—leaving the airport, day and night, for dis- oe tant points, just as they had been doing for months be- fat ‘They weren't in the show at all. Yet it is a question * ‘whether any part of that spectacular exhibition was quite ie erie impressive as the sight of these airmail ships, leaving pand arriving on regular schedule, in a vacant field be- Meeibtf hind ‘the place reserved for the dare-devils. , ‘The races were a great show. Lindbergh, Williams, Doo- aqpilttle and others did things with airplanes that were Pronk Positively incredible. ‘The finest pilots of the army, navy &) fee and marine corps went through complicated maneuvers PATHE with amazing skill. Three Canadian officers came down 3 | and made 50,000 spectators gazp with their consummate skill and daring. All of this was valuable. It surely proved that the air- 5 plane is a pretty reliable proposition, to say the least. 'T In But the men who didn’t get the applause—the airmail ig pilots—were, to our notion, the men who were really prov- . ing the airplane's worth. ) Every hour of the day and night one or another was off on his regular round. One man would head 4 for the perilous climb over the Alleghenies. Another would point the nose of his plane for Buffalo and Albany. Another would swing south to the Ohio river ‘ ! Another would head west for Chicago, carrying a (cargo that would be on the Pacific coast 36 hours later. marck Tribune 5 | racy performing hair-raising stunts in front of the crowded | Note on a Species ‘The British sent their soldiers into the Rhine region at the end of 1918. They are about to withdraw. Thus for nearly 11 years a great body of British troops has i} | | lived in—and on—a foreign country, theoretically policing it and providing the threat of force necessary to insure the fulfiliment of the punitive clauses of the Versailles treaty. Eleven years ts a long time in this fast-moving world. That same 11 years has seen changes which could hardly j be matched in any equivalent period of tie world's his- tory. It has seen the substitution of tyranny for democ- in more than half of Europe. It has seen the rise of new philosophies of government and of life. It has seen proud Britain herself reduced from her position of Primacy to a shaky nervousness and her government taken from the hands of the ancient class which held it almost by divine right and turned over to the party of the wage workers. It has seen conquered and enslaved nomic power. , That 11 years has been an cra, indeed. The young man of 23 today. just beginning to aseume the responsibilities of the world, was a mere boy of 14 or 15 when the troops marched in. He can hardly know how or why they got | there, Brought up in the hectic tempo of the jazz age, he can with difficulty visualize the calm world which was thrown into sudden uproar by the events of 1914. He cannot understand the long-concealed bitterness which broke out and overwhelmed the world in his childhood. The withdrawal of the British troops must be to him something a8 difficult to comprehend as the withdrawal of Caesar's legions in the fourth century. ; themselves may not have forgotten just how it happens they were stationed so long on foreign soil. They marched in as conquerors, but they remained to see their respec- tive nations resume ancient friendships. Many: of them have forgotten, almost, the sights and the sounds of their own land. Hundreds and perhaps thousands of them have formed attachments in Germany, taken German wives, begat German children and become to all intents and purposes citizens of the land they were to enslave. And now they must march out into the changed world. There 1s a lesson in all this, we are certain. But the only moral we can think of at the moment is that the human race, if it is not composed of idiots, is certainly led by them.

Good Housckeeping magazine recently decided to in- vestigate. It sent Rita 8. Halle out to look into the mat- ter at first hand. Miss Halle, having investigated thor- oughly, reports as follows: There is far less drinking in the colleges now than there was a decade ago. Not more than a tenth of one per cent of the co-eds of the country are guilty of im- proper conduct. All but an insignificant minority of students, both men and women, are in college to study, and have neither the time nor the inclination to dissipate.

It was so long that Gen. Keifer was a speaker of the house of represent. , | atives—between 1881 and 1863—that his name is un- known to the present generation of newspaper readers. Yet here he is, just relinquishing the banking position he has held for fifty years, and doubtless looking on at the Political show with interest and perhaps with that gift for pungent comment which distinguished him. He had already been practicing law for two years at Springfield when the Civil war broke out. That war he ended as a major-general of volunteers, and at the open- ing of the Spanish-American war, as was true in the case of his former enemies—Generals Fitshugh Lee of Vir- ginia and Joseph Wheeler of Alabama—he became a major-general of volunteers again. In 1905 Gen. Keifer went back to congress, where his low cut waistcoat and white frilled shirt impelled “Private John” Allen to remark that he was the last man alive “who wears @ dress suit in the daytime.” Artists and Entertainers cil and the Rotary club for one volunteer each. He wanted, he said, to form a “committee of three” to decide which of the young are “artists,” or which, unteers were not lacking. Soon ingenious Mayor G. Ramon de Paredes had as- sembled his “committee of three,” was imparting precise definitions, minute instructions. Said he: dreamed of.

Perhaps All this talk about the smaller waistline, and the feminine figure, made me wonder just what we are coming to this fall, so I sought an authority on the subject—Marjorie Dork, who maintains a fashionable slendering studio in New York, and has helped many a woman to pare off pounds and look younger than her years. . “Tell me the truth, no matter how it hurts,” I begged. “Are we going to go back to corsets?” “A large number of women are,” was her reply. “Because the new styles all feature the natural waist- line—which on many women is a roll of flesh, particularly an those who have secured the stylish straightline figure. “They reduced every part of them- selves, but their waistlines, and they could get away with flesh there be- cause with a straightline dress it did not show. “Now they will either have to fin- ish the job, and reduce the waistline, or they will have to hold in that ex- tra fold of flesh by stays—there is no other way. The sensible woman will reduce and the lazy woman will | corset herself.” * * CHANGING FIGURES Regardnig the actual measure- ments, Miss Dork did not see the 18- inch waistline as an immediate peril —or the 21. “I believe the 24-inch waistline will be the desirable one this season,” she said, line will come the higher bust. The figure will change considerably to be in harmony with the 1929 silhouette.” Miss Dork has never recommended drastic reductions. She has always advocated daily exercise, a sane diet, and a consistent loss in weight over 2 long period rather than quick results gained by limited diets. Almost 20 years of working with women who want to improve their figures have left her with no illusions as to woman's frailty—of purpose. “Women want everything done for them—they think if they have money they should be able to buy slim waists and beauty as well as ermine and dia- monds. omen, empire in Caen bart | "pyr instance, herein my evmnat- is best for her health and her fig- ure. But do women actually want to work off their flesh, by exercise and by wearing down the fat tissues? “No, they want to lie comfortably on a slab and have a woman massage them, or roll them with rollers—all of which is very good for the health and the figure, but effective only when combined with actual physical exer- tion and sane dieting.” “Women are going to save this country.
