GIANT MACON DROPS MAIL ON HOUSTON'S DECK Escort Planes Drop Papers for Roosevelt En Route to Hawaii. AT SF.A WITH PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT. July 20 'by radio.) Pre-ident Roosevelts flagship, the cruiser HouMon. steamed through squall-swept seas toward Hawaii today alter a visit from the navy's air queen, the dirigible Macon. The silvery dirigible poked her nose from a cloud bank yesterday afternoon as the Houston cruised 1.200 miles from California. She had come from her base at Sunnyvale, near San Francisco, at an average speed of fifty knots, bringing mail to the President. Mr. Roosevelt stood on the windswept deck for some time awaiting the Macon's arrival. Planes Drop Papers Commander A. V. Wiley, recently placed in charge of the dirigible ami a survivor of the Akron disaster. ordered two of his supplementary pursuit planes to fly ahead of ‘he Macon as she neared the Houston. Ihe planes swooped low m - cr the cruiser's deck and dropped papers and a greeting from Commander Wiley. The Macon soared for an hour over the Huston and her convoy before pointing northward toward her base. The President sent the following to Commander Wiley: The President s compliments to vou and your planes on your fine performance and excellent navigation. Weil done and thank you for the papers.” Congratulates Farley Low-hanging clouds and a change in course of the Houston increased the navigation problem for the Macon. The Houston's course was changed to relieve the pain of a crew member, operated upon for appendicitis, by preventing excessive rolling. The President received Post-master-General James Farley's report that the postoffire department had a surplus of $5 000.000 at the end of the fiscal year ending June ; 30. Mr. Roosevelt wired Mr. Far- \ ley his congratulations, pointing out ; that it was the first such surplus ; since 1919. The President, his sons and party j were guests at a dinner party ar- j ranged last night by officers of the Houston.

The Theatrical World ‘Of Human Bondage’ One of Best, Hickman Says BY WALTER D. HICKMAN
ONE of the smash ’movie hits of the year is W. Somerset Maugham s "Os Human Bondage.” Here is one of the most sensitive movies—depicting one man's struggle to free himself from a bondage of selfish love—that the screen ever has revealed. “Os Human Bondage” 1s a masterpiece and has the right to that
honor, the same as the Maugham romance, which is one of the most widely read books ever written. In the hands of Leslie Howard, the sensitive, fine and beauty loving soul of Philip Carey, a club-foot medical student, is revealed in all of its fine and sentive beauty. If there ever has been a ‘‘soul”

Mr. Howard
performance photographed upon the screen, then this work of Mr. Howard is that one. I am putting Mr. Howard's Philip Carey in my own hall of fame. I am sure this is one of the ten best performances on th? screen that I have seen. Philip loved Mildred 'Bette Davis), a waitress with a chpap mind and even a cheaper body, with so much devotion that in his imagination he made a lovely goddess out of this mess of human clay. Handicapped as he was with a deformed foot which never touched the loveliness of his soul and disposition, Philip lived in his false dream of the "beauty” that Mildred did not possess. He even did this when she destroyed him financially, abused his pride and nearly ruined his finer sensitiveness. Watch the scene when Mfldred attempts to use her physical charms on Philip Watch Miss Davis reach dramatic heights of fierce intensity which I never suspicioned she possessed. Watch Howard feebly try to hang on to the vision he had created as a sweetheart. It is magnificent acting on part of both players. a a a HERE is the first great acting that Miss Davis has given the screen. Here character is one of ugliness and utter selfishness.

She destroys herself and although she nearly wrecks the sensitive soul of Philip, she is defeated. Two other women figure in the life of Philip. They are Sally, 'Frances Dee) and ffora <Kay Johnson). Both performances, although different in characterization, are perfect performances. Take time to watch the splendid acting of Reginald Owen as the father of Sally. Here is work that you will want to remember. There is not a weak member in this great cast. Please take time and watch the work of John Cromwell, the director, and see how he has put over the club-foot deformity of Philip. Here is sensitive direction that actually matches the great acting in the cast. We are demanding fine stories, fine acting and intelligent direction. Then if we are in earnest then our duty is clearly to see this masterpiece. Os all the movies I have seen, I had only six until I saw “Os Human Bondage.” Now this one is my seventh.
