Hollywood, June 15—This highly) temperamental, excitable eommun- | ity, filled to bursting with souls ! I fairly skyrocketing and nose-div-I | ing into public print in order to get their names emblazoned across the! j sky of public opinion, is too often J I prone to “go up in the air" over in-1 1 eoftsectuentials of no importance or interest to the rest of the world. , Hut among these ground-anchored j I mortals is a quatet which does go I I up in the air most realistically, sane j ! ly and under power which they can i control to bring them back to their I feet again without reams of publi-i city. They don't have to “hit the I ceiling” to get into the newspapers j but. for a fact, their exploits in the! air are not hall as well known as i those who take mental altitude! ! flights and disasterous power dives. 1 Three of this interesting aerial! I quartet o fflying film folk are old I timers at the controls, while the I fourth, pretty Billie Dove has been | ' secretly taking lessons at piloting a i plane, and has applied for a license j from the Department of Commerce.l Billie, formerly “glorified” by Zieg- I teld in his Follies, is now having a' glorious time flitting about the I I skies above Hollywood and quite lit-! erally looking down upon her less I advent urious friends of the films. Billie already has made one solo flight and has bought a trim monoplane which will be ready for her in I about a month. But the champion flying duo of Hollywood, is composed of tali ! handsome Ben Lyon and his beaut iI fill vivacious wife, Bebe Daniels, i They can righlfuly be styled oldtim|ers at the stick as both have been i flying for several years.

was issued a uniform with wings ’n‘ everything and oh, how proud she was. When Ben Lyon was starred in "Hell's Angels" and took the part of an ace with the British Royal Air Force he felt right at home. He was too young during the World War to participate in it as a flier, but 1 you'd never have known it with the I performance he rendered in the film version of a spectacular side of the Great War. Bebe and Ben do not let the mere fact that their favorite golf links is 150 miles from Hollywood interfere with their enjoyment of the game. Whenever the idea seizes them, and it's kuota of ten, they hop into their plane and ride the air lanes down to Agua Caliente, Mexico for a round of the links, climb back into their aerial chariot and away to home in time for dinner. The last, but not the least deserving of praise of the quartet of Hol lywood aces of the sky is Wallace Beery, well-known comedian of the flickering films. He like Bebe and Ben. holds a pilot's license from the Federal Department of Commerce Wally not only flies his own plane but he's a heavy stockholder in one of the large trans-continental air transport lines and is said to operate a private line of his own in California. Fortune has smiled on Hollywood sky pilots thus far, none of them having suffered from crash. If one of hem should encounter a mishap, and news ob the accident was published, no doubt many persons would be amazed to learn that at least four of their favorites are pilots—and mighty good ones, too. Stardom has come to every one of this aerial quartet. Surely all of r:s will wish them “Happy Landings” as well.

COU NTRY LIFE CONFERENCE TO MEET AUG. IT Means of Improving Conditions Will Be Discussed Ithaca, ,N. ¥., June IG—(U.R> — With a view to devising means to improve rural life in the United States, the 14th Annual American Country Life Conference will be held here August 17 to 20. Gov. Franklin D. Roosevelt, who stressed the balance maintained by France between her agricultural and industrial resources, upon his return from France recently, will be one of the chief figures at the conference. The governor's first official act upon his return was to send invitations to the governors of all the states to attend the conference. Roosevelt, who has made the promotion of agriculture one of his principal policies, believes that the present economic situation would be greatly relieved by re-esjablishing the agricultural balance. Many Experts Noted educators and experts on rural problems are scheduled to attend, a preliminary program reveals. These include G. W. Rutherford, professor of political science, lowa State College; Governor Gifford Pinchot of Pennsylvania; Francis B. Haas, president

IT IS EASY enough to buy wisely when you can see what you are getting. But how about those products that you can’t see? Foods, drugs, toilet necessities —all hidden by a bottle or a package. If you do not recognize the name on the label, how can you judge the value behind it? You can't! Shopping experience has proved this to millions of women. But experience uses bitter methods. Costly methods. When you buy only those products which you see advertised regularly week after week, in newspapers and magazines—when you are guided by the names yo u know — you are safe.

But when you experiment with untried brands—substitute products which you are told are “just as good” —you may be sorry. The manufacturer who knows the wisdom of advertising also knows the folly of false claims. His integrity is the integrity of his product. Your good will is the rock on which he stands. If it crumbles, his success goes with it into dust. The truthful, consistent advertising of any manufacturer is proof of lus

Mr. Hoover’s address last night was delivered at a chicken dinner given under the auspices of the Indiana Republican Editorial Association. It was a fighting defense of the Republican tariff and his handling of the depression. It marked the counter-offensive of the president and his party to the Democratic victories of last fall ami was given on Mr. Hoover’s first political trip since the Republican reverses of that time. “We stand upon it,” Mr. Hoover said in defending the HawleySmoot tariff act which he signed almost exactly a year ago and which he declared was saving the farmer and working man from being overwhelmed by cheap goods from Europe. Speaking of the depression, Mr. Hoover declared the administration “had assured the country from panic and its hurricane and bankruptcy, and assisted in maintenance of wages." To those urging a “plan" similar to Russia’s, he replied with an “American plan" which consisted of a vision of expansion in the next 20 years. As he outlined it, this would supply a population increase of 20,000,000 persons, which would involve 4,000,000 new homes, 25,000,000 more electrical horsepower, 20 per cent increase in farm products, and other developments in proportion, with greater diffusion of wealth, a decrease in poverty, and a great reduction in crime. “We are suffering more now from frozen confidence than from

frozen securities," said the president. The remark was greeted by a burst of applause almost as great ns the demonstration which lasted several minutes when he first arose to speak. Loud applause also greeted him when he expressed his confidence in tiie future bfy declaring the I nited States had come through previous depressions into greater prosperity and added that “they will do so this time." The president s extended discus-1 sion of the depression was taken as indicating he regards this as the big problem which the administiation must meet in next year's election. His address will be widely circulated among party workers I and is regarded as constituting a guide in dealing with this issue. The picnic dinner “table" covered two acres. It was entirely in-' formal. Not a dress suit was' seen. Paul R. Bausman, president of! the editorial association, invited I all men to remove their coats Many accepted the invitation. College girls were waitresses. Sen. Watson delayed the service once for several minutes when he recognized a waitiess and learned from her about “her folks." Several' times, sections of diners added to I the informality by singing “The Banks of the Wabash." Among those from Decatur who attended the Hoover banquet were Mr. and Mrs. C. E.

Hoover’s speech before the Indiana Republican Editorial Association, follow: New York Times —If Americans like a public man who is afraid, They also like one who is not discouraged or dispondent. For this reason the address will fall like a word of good cheer upon the ears of the country. . . . What Mr. Hoo- , ver has to say about the tariff, . . . I is neither elightening or helpful. . . I His address so plainly Inclines to | hope rather than fear that it will tend to quicken the hopes and banish the fears of a great nbtnber of his fellow countrymen. New York Herald-Tribune —. He drew the lines so clearly and presented the issue (The Government's position in times of Depression) so i convincingly as to make it possible 1 for all to see the depression in its i proper perspective. , New York World-Telegram—With i President Hoover’s dream of prosI perity we have complete sympathy. . But a dream is not a plan. . . The President’s theory has been tried and has failed in this depression. It is time to try something else prescription, plan or what you will, but somthing besides futile hoping for the best.
