Of heavy white smoke about o'clock
this afternoon. advertising Lucky
Strike" cigarettes
Thousands OF persons on the street
craned necks to witness the spec
tacle. and as many more persons
stuck heads out of windows and
dropped their business tasks 10 see
this latest advertising novelty.
The strokes Of the letters made
nv the plane were one mile long. The
plane was piloted by Captain Shep-
person, who came from Philadel-
phia to make the demonstration.
The sky writing was made while the
plane was flying at the rate Of from
sixty to a hundred and eighty miles
an hour.
The brisk breeze swept the smok-
ed formed letters along as they We're
made. however, the sky writer kept
pace with the wind and made per-
fectly formed writing. Even the diff
ficult twists necessary to write the
IS" in strike. and the TX" in lucky
were executed with ease.
This form of advert ising Is being

Though the actual process Of pro-

physical process Of tracing It across

by everyone within a radius Of $50

In describing how the thing was
done. Major Savage said the most
modern type of fighting plane is
used carrying one man and having
"a wing spread OF only tweRty-four
feet. The. writing is done on a
plane horizontal to the ground. He
remarked that the invention may he

purposes hut also to keep pilots in

SAN FRANCIsCO.-Just how
completely is woman a slave to

Does she really dress to please

or does she dress to please her
self?
From a strange quarter comes an
answer to these questions-from be-
hind prison bars-from San Quen-
tin. Californ.a's great penitentiary,
near here
It comes from women serving
terms from a few years duration up

Behind Grim Walls.
These women are locked behind
grim walls. in narrow cells.
Only now and then may they
mingle-even among themselves.
Their clothing is regulated by a
prison designer. But for those of an
occasional official. there is no mans
eyes to see.
In such a place, with the shad-
ows Of solitude, OF misery, of con
science hanging low. is woman in

She is not.

Lets Forget About Skirt Lengths and WaistIines

While fashion arbiters fight Out
