FILM HEROINE HAS
 RIDE IN D|RIG|BLE

An interesting new chapter of aero nautical history was written recently at the naval air station, san Diego, when Ruth Roland, heroine of numer- ous movie serial thrillers, was taken aloft in the Goodyear pony blimp D-57 for. the first flight to be made by a woman in the smallest practicable dir igible ever constructed
 Ninety five feet from nose to tail and capable of carrying a pilot and two passengers for ten hours at the max imum speed of 45 miles per hour at any altitude up to 5000 feet, the pony blimp had made a number of highly successful flights at the Goodyear bal loon field in Los Angeles before it's ing the first woman passenger to try out this new type of aircraft goes to the Pathe cinema star.
 Miss Roland's attention was drawn to the small dirigible as a coming fac tor in aerial motion picture work and her trip in it demonstrated conclusive ly the importance of it's accomplish ments which render feasible a number of hitherto impossible effects in screen photography, in addition to offering novel possibilities in the making of movie thrillers.
 While the dirigible's competitor the afrplane, must maintain a racing speed or fall, the pony blimp is under no such handicap, for it's lighter than air construction enables it to hover prac- tically motionless at any desired height or to glide along over a scene at a snaiPs pace.

WORTH IF PEANUT
 COFFEE Is OUTLINED

The average coffee sold in America today is inferior and peanut coffee is far superior to the average. according to chamber of commerce advices. Peanuts are gaining popularity in the valley as a forage and oil crop but their value as a, beverage similar to coffee was stated at the chamber of com merce.
 W H. Bach of San Fernando, Calif., says: Have you had any good coffee recently No matter what you paid for it. was it not poor flavor? Well, peanuts will make you as fine a cup of coffee as you ever drank and far better and cheaper than any of the cereal coffees on the market. You do not have to have the best kinds of nuts for it, either. We made some from cull nuts which was fine. Roast the peanuts until they brown inside, that is, roast them more than you would to eat them as ordinarily prepared. Shell them and grind or pulverize them and proceed as you would to make or dinary coffee. If you have never tried it you have something in store.'
 China, which leads in the production of peanuts, uses peanut cake which is the refuse after oil has been extracted for feeding animals. This cake is richer and cheaper than cotton cake, according to chamber of commerce ad- vices. The Chinese use peanuts and peanut oil or butter as one of their principal foods and only half Of the enormous production of five hundred million pounds leaves China in export trade. Tn 1918 it exported peanut oil valued at SS,000 900, the most of it to the United States. The demand for peanuts and especially the Spanish pea nuts, which contain the most oil is considered unlimited in the United States. The by products rendered from peanuts at present on a commer. cial basis are peanut oil, peanut cake. peanut meal and peanut flour The stalks, being very rich in protein make among the best feed for animals known in the world.
 Reports from peanut areas in the valley this season are favorable

CONSTANTINOPLE. July 1S - Black troops, many of them Senega- lese. have been used by the French in their joint occupation of this city. The Senegalese wear bright green uni forms and red fezzes.

The performance was pretty bad, but the villagers found it quite interesting till, at the great climax in the third act. the hero forgot his part After an em- barrassing silence of about two min utes he hissed audibly to the prompter:
 Whats the line?"
 What's the play?" the prompter hissed back from his little box as he rabbed a pile of two or three dozen books and began to run through them feverishly.
