At San Diego Lindbergh borrowed
a “glider” airplane, with no engine.
He asked a few questions, went up
alone, flew for half an hour, 500 feet
up, came down and applied for a first-
dass gilder pilot license. He got it
There is only one Lindbergh, but there
are a million young Americans like
him. They will keep aviation going.
A lady stockholder in the Fox Film
company complains that “William Fox
paid himself a salary of $150,000.” If
that’s true, Mr. Fox, like a distin-
guished servant of the East India com-
pany, must be amazed at his ow n mod-
eration.
One company that he controls pays
each of the two managers three times
1150,000. And moving picture stars
hired by him get $150,000 for one pic-
ture.
Even humble newspaper employees
get more than that modest $150,00o
salary. It isn’t what you are paid,
but what you produce, that counts.

This nation needs 250,000,000 more
people to eat the food and use the
automobiles, clothing, houses, and
radio sets the country could produce.
Some day 500,000,000 Americans will
live on the hill tops and mountain
tops, and fly down to business or to
work on plains and in valleys.
This glorious coast from Seattle to
San Diego, the land of good roads,
faces a family problem less acute in
other parts of the country.
The problem is "which cars shall go
into the garage, which shall be parked
in the driveway?” Here the two-car,
three-car and four-car family la the
rule.
The distressing accident to a Mad-
dux airplane returning from the Mexi-
can horse races at Agua Caliente is
part of the price of progress. It
means one of the first improvements
should be to make a plane taking fire,
due to collision, Impossible.
When railroading started in France,
and an accident between Paris and
Versailles killed many, It was thought
that Frenchmen would ride no more.
A troupe of actors, hired, sat in trains
at the windows smiling, pretending to
like it. Railroading was not aban-
doned. Flying will increase every
year, and become safer than rail or
motor travel.

What ships are to the Clyde, pack-
ing houses to Chicago, big banks to
New York and fat goose livers to
Strassburg, moving pictures are to
this Hollywood land.
The two biggest billboards read
"Garbo Talks.” They don’t even men-
tion the lady's first name, which is
Greta. »
And “At last the voice of voices,
Norma Talmadge."
Two ladies—Bernhardt and Duse—
might dispute that, but they are dead;
Norma Talmadge much alive.
In 1933 Chicago will celebrate In
grand style the “Century of Progress.”
And there is much to celebrate.
Rufus C. Dawes, brother of our am-
bassador to England, president of the
Chicago celebration, says: “Man is
becoming smarter all the time, and be-
cause of science the world is a much
better place than ever before.”
Most gratifying is the fact that man
is becoming less brutal all the time.
Now If you want to find murder In the
name of religion, the vilest beliefs or
superstitions, you go Into the gutters
of ignorance. You no longer find such
things on the throne or in lawmaking
bodies.

Paganini as a Father
Paganini’s greatest relaxation was
spoiling his son. No childish whim
was too unreasonable to be gratified
and bis patience was really maternaL
Once, when the child had broken a
leg, the doctor ordered absolute re-
pose, but no one could keep the little
one still. Paganini sat with the child
in his lap for eight days, careessing
and entertaining him. Finally he be-
came dazed from continual sitting and
the doctor Insisted on his going out
He had accomplished his purpose, how-
ever, for the young bones had knit to-
gether properly.—From “Paganini ot
Genoa,” by Lillian Day.

Never has a Chevrolet car won greater
praise for its appearance than the new
Chevrolet Six. Its new Fisher bodies
reveal in every detail the artistry that
has made the Fisher name famous
throughout the motor car world. In
beauty of line and color, in balance
and harmony of design, they represent
one of the greatest style triumphs in
Fisher history. Upholsteries are richer
and more durable. The instrument
panel carries a new and more attrac-
tive grouping of the control instru-
ments. Seats are wider and deeper.
In fact, not a single feature has been
overlooS;ed that would
In addition to its new beauty, the new
Chevrolet Six represents a remarkable
advance in every phase of perform-
ance. Its improved six-cylinder valve-
in-head engine has been increased to
50 horsepower—giving faster acceler-
ation, and greater reserve power.
Steering has been made safer and easier.
Four Lovejoy hydraulic shock absorbers
provide exceptional riding comfort.
Fully enclosed, internal-expanding,
weather-proof brakes give positive
braking control. And numerous struc-
tural improvements add to the car's
dependability, endurance and long
life. Come in today
