They Wouldn't Suit Her,

Mary Pickford was talking about
the new French fashions.
"The French" she said, "are trying
to bring the long skirt back again"
She frowned slightly. Then, as she
glanced down at her little shoe, her
brow cleared. ....
There's no doubt" she said, that
long skirts would suit some girls down

CONSULTING CONGRESS

~ HE Washington cores
W. pondent of the New York
Hearld writes that con-
gress was "angry" at the Will
son recommendation about war
time prohibition, not that con-
gress was so much opposed to
the suggestion as to his putting
the matter up to congress. 1t
was felt, members said, that
the president could have hand
led the whole matter himself
if had wished.
All, but have we not been
told many times that the presi-
dent should consult congress
more and should not try to be
the whole thing himself,
Has not the senate almost
had a spasm over this very
point. Why then the anger?

AN AMERICAN TRIUMPH

n British subject tried tc
~ fly across the Atlantic: al
American did it. Hawkel
with his Sopwith made a fine
effort but Commander Read
and the NC-4 reached Libson.
For the first time the Allan
tic has been crossed via the air
route and the honor for that
feat belongs to the United
States navy. 1t is distinction
the more worth while because
it was not due to luck but to
hard efficient work coupled
with undeniable pluck.
In flying from Rockaway
beach to Lisbon Commander
Read covered over 1000 miles.
On his longest flight. from
Trepassey bay to the Azores he
travelled 1900 miles without
stop, making that trip in Is
hours and Is minutes. He was
in the air longer without stop
than was Hawker, he also COW
cred greater distance.
The Hawker adventure was
a dramatic one and there is no
desire to detract from the fame
of those two men. But what
they did was dare deviltry.
They escaped with their lives
only through a miracle. On the
otherhand the NC planes work
ed along scientific lines. They
demonstrated an important
point, that American seaplanes
can fly from the mainland to
the Azores because three of our
planes did it. The NC-4 de-
monstrated that it could cross
the ocean under its own wings
and by the power of Liberty
motors. By the way where
now are those who were saying
that the Liberty motors would
not work and that our air
craft forces were not much (
