EW YORK.—As America looks
to its air defenses, it finds, as
acting chief of the army air corps,
a pioneer technician in the adapta-
tion of the air-
Arnold Seems plane to war uses.
Well Qualified He is Brig. Gen.
For Air Chief H. H. Arnold, as
suming command
of the corps after the death of Maj
Gen. Oscar Westover, in a plane
wreck.
Soon after the Wright brothers
had made their first few faltering
air jumps, young Lieutenant Arnold
was sent to Dayton, Ohio, not only
to learn to fly, but to make tech
nical studies of the possibilities of
aircraft for observation and fight
ing He was among the earliest of
the army’s trained fliers, and, in
1912, won the Mackay medal for a
triangular flight, 30 miles to the leg,
from College Point, Md., over Wash
ington and Fort Meyer. In 1935, he
again won this trophy for his exploit
of the previous year in leading a
flight of 10 bombing planes from
Washington to Fairbanks, Alaska.
He has been an aggressive cham
pion of aerial defense, reprimanded
in 1926 for what was considered an
excess of zeal for air armament.
In 1917, he organized and command
ed the Panama Canal air defenses,
and was with the A. E. F. in France,
in the closing months of the World
war, on inspection duty. He be
came assistant chief of the air corps
in January, 1936. His technical
studies have included photography,
special means for topographical ob
servations, and aerial mass tactic,
as well as engineering problems of
flying.
He is 51 years old, a native of
Gladwyn, Pa., graduated from West
Point in 1907.

roses and chrysanthemums, which
are now in bud. The hurricane never

Silver Lining his back on his
in R. E. Bondy garden for a time,
as his world out
side of it became mostly chaos. As
national director of disaster relief
for the Red Cross, he’s been doing
a heroic work in New England. His
roses may be one kind of act of
God, but his business is mainly
with the other kind—Swinburne’s
“Forsaken Garden,” where “wild
waves and spent winds labor.”
He was a letter-man on the Uni
versity of Chicago baseball team and
a police reporter for a Chicago
newspaper. On the latter job, he
had a ringside seat at man-made
disasters, but, in his later career,
took up with the more elemental
upsets and breakdowns.
For 19 years, he has organized
disaster relief for the Red Cross in
the Lake, Southern and Washington
divisions. He is one of our most
seasoned and efficient battlers
against all the ills and dangers that
come in the wake of flood, fire,
earthquake or any other widespread
ruin. He is a native of Minnesota,
in his early forties, his hair thinning
—and no wonder.

“Walk proudly," “grow tall from

rules to remember as you walk.
“Sit in the entire seat of a chair,"

Authority Advises
These Exercises
From one of the leading salons,
that of Miss Dorothy Nye, I secured
these two corrective exercises,
which, if practiced daily, will firm
the abdominal muscles and give
flexibility to the hip region. Both
are necessary to acquire an erect
and agile carriage.

Blackie, equine swimming star, in company with his owner and trainer, Ritchie Roberts, swam the
treacherous waters of the Golden Gate to break existing records and win a bet with William Kyne, sportsman.
The 12-year-old gelding’s prise for negotiating the mile-wide entrance to San Franeisee bay was a ton of hay.

HINT-OF-THE-DAY

Pacific Southwest tennis championships at Los Angeles with Franklin K.

Vet, 93, Flies
ELYRIA, OHIO.—One of the old
est aviators in the United States has
honored his dead comrades. Capt.
Lafayette Stough, who celebrated
his ninety-third birthday last No
vember, flew over the graves of vet
erans and dropped flowers in their
memory.
If a child possesses his own aids
to body health and cleanliness he
is more likely to use them. “My
very own hair brush”—“My very
own tooth paste” — makes him
proud. If he is taught how to use
them and why he must use them, a
mother will have little difficulty in
getting him to do so.
Of course all children go through
that obstinate age when any sug
gestion is vetoed, when every re
quest calls forth a lengthy argu
ment. But even during this stage
of growing pajns the child is quite
likely to slip off and do what he has
been told to do after he has satis
fied his ego by displaying his obsti-
nance, that is, providing his earlier
years have included a daily groom
ing routine.
How You Can Look Slimmer
155^
TF YOU take a woman’s size,
1 you’ll certainly enjoy having
both of these smart, new, slender
izing styles. They’re extremely
becoming, and made up in mate
rials and colors of your own choos
ing, they will be the joy of your
life, one for house work, and the
other for afternoon and dinner en
gagements. Both of these dresses
are so very simple to make that
you’ll thoroughly enjoy doing it.
Each pattern includes a detailed
sew chart for the guidance of be
ginners.
The House Dress.
Notice how very practical and
comfortable this dress is, with ev
ery detail you want for working
freedom and slim lines. Darts
make the waistline slim and neat,
but not tight. The armholes are
ample, the sleeves very short, and
slashed for greater freedom. The
skirt has sufficient, unhampering
fullness at the hem. It’s a dia
gram design, that you can finish
in a few hours. For this, choose
percale, calico, or gingham.
The Afternoon Dress.
Just wait to see how nice and
slim your hips look, in this clev
erly designed dress, with just a
little dullness above the waist to
emphasize the slick, smooth cut
below. This design gives you the
fashionable bodice detailing, in
soft, lengthening jabot drapes that
