It is called , “Hell's Angels” and it's the film that Pro- ducer-Director Howard Hughes took three years to make at a cost of $4,000,000. But the magnitude, the spectacle, the gradeur of this breath taking air drama, with its countless droning planes, mighty Zeppelins and stirring sky conflicts more than Justifies everything that has been put into it. It had last night's au- dience gasping for breath when it was all over. As an achievement it is doubtful whether it will ever have an equal; as a dramatic ac- jcount of the aviators part in the war it tells the story on such a grandiose scale that all future pic- tures of this sort can be but feeble | anti-climaxes. Zeppelin Is Seen Night has fallen over London | Suddenly a Zeppelin noses its way jout of the clouds. The crew is testing the bombing apparatus. Crispiy, orders aré barked out. The British sound-detectors pick up the sounds of the monster’s motors. And defending planes zoom off to dis- perse the enemy.

Ten of these years were spent as a member of the House, but he quit because he was tired of holding public office. Outsideé of occasional golf, politics is about his of recreation. He dabbles in politics because he loves it. He gets a tremendous kick out of conferring with pol- | iticians, maintaining intimate con- tact with the President, and dis- charging this and that task. Republicans from all sections of the country know him, call him “Jim,” talk intihately with him about party affairs. He works quietly, and unless you should be on the lookout for him, probably you would be unaware of his presence. The nearest thing to an official title he has is general counsel of the Republican National Commit- tee. He his been that for several years. He divides his time between Washington and Pittsburgh — at- tempts to keep no reguXar hours at either place. games of only form No Reward Seeker Financially independent, his friends here say that he hopes for no reward, that he told Mr. Hoover at the outset there was no post at home or abroad that he sought or would accept.

B, of Boston, Massachusetts, Member of the Board of Lectureship of The Mother Church, The First Church of Christ, Scientist, in Boston, Mass., U.'S. A, The lecturer said in part: “The question uppermost in the thought of many today is, What is man? The attention given by the general public to the subject of evolution as well as the efforts al and religious reform.’ Could there be a more comprehensive or un- selfish motive?

The Discover= er and Founder of Christian Sci- ence, Mary Baker Eddy, writes: “Nature reflects man and art pens cils him, but it remains for Science to reveal man to man,’ and the Psalmist indicated man's purely spiritual nature when he said, “What is man, that thou art mind- ful of him?’ “What is man’s substance, ..hat God is mindful of it?
