Roadway may never haye--a cock tail shaker shaking away vigorously in the lights above the pavements. Curving northward from Piccadilly Circus runs Regent Street, but it isn't what ii used 10 be. As late as year and a half ago the buildings along it's half-mile arc were the one line of Parisian uniformity in all the mumbo- jumbo of London's architec- ture.
 But the street that Nash made for the Victorians is no more. With the exception of a short stretch of a few yards the buildings he designed have been torn down in recent months. Those which replace them arc no more alike than the towering struc- lures Of Broadway. They are clean CT and brighter and bigger and more modern than Nashs and most of them are of sturdy white stone, but the conservative souls of London de- test them and express their sense of outrage in letters to the papers. One man has taken q VOW. (Which he has called upon all who can read 10 wit ness. that never. never again will he put foot in Regent street now that "Nash's Quadrant" of four-foored buildings has been demolished by the uncuitured hands of modern business.

DEAD AVIATOR LEFT NOTE
 FOR HIS FLYING FRIENDS
Urges Them to "stick to It"-Letter Was 10 be Opened After
 His Death.

Cleveland, March ls.-Two letters urging his aviator friends all over the world" to stick to it., were made public today by Mrs. Kate Hyde- Pearson of Santa Monica. Cal. moth- CT of Captain Leonard Brooke Hyde Pearson, world war flyer and air mail pilot, killed ten days ago in the noun tains of Pennsylvania, while carrying mail from New York to Cleveland.
 The letters, addressed ito my be- loved brother pilots and pals" were marked: ITO be opened only after my eeath."
 T so west. but with cheerful heart" one of the letters read. T hope what small sacrifice l have made may be of use 10 the cause.
 When VIC fly we are fools, they say. When VIC are dead We weren't half bad fellows. But everyone in this wonderful aviation service is do- ing tho world far moro. good than the public can appreciate. We risk our nocks; VIC give our lives: we perfect a service for the benefit of the world at large. They, mind you, are the ones who call US fools.
 But stick to it, boys. I'm still very much with you all. See you all again."
 Captain Hyde Pearson was buried here sunday. II was not until after his death that his associates knew he had been awarded inc British meritorious service cross and was member of the Victorian order.

PICCADILLY SQUARE
 BROADWAY'S RIVAL
London Beginning to Have Its
 Great White Way

London. March 1S.--The age of jazz is putting its imprint on the face of London just as have other times and manners come and gone in this old city by the Thames. A great deal of truth has been taken out of the old saying that however far the Briton strays from home and no mat ter how long he remains in foreign lands, London will be the same when he returns as when he leaves. So far as the heart of her night-life, Piccadilly Circus, and the center of her shopping district, Regent street, arc concerned. the London of 1924 is far. far different from the London of even so recent a year as 1922.
 Piccadilly Circus that once was so dignified and sombrs in outward as- pect, is ablaze by night with the flashing. varied-colored lights of electric signs. The red-nosed, bill lowy cockney women still squat around the fountain in the center of the Circus selling their flowers to passersby but the street lamps that once made shadows of their slouchy felt hats or soot-coyered straws seem but dim flickers of flame, in the flood of dazzling white and rcd and orange and green beams that bathe the sidewalks and the streets converging at the Circus. Down Coventry street to Leicester, Square, hrassie shot away almost every building carries q twinkling mass of nicandescents, and at an- other angle off the Circus, Shaftes-. bury avenue is equally bright with its line of sky-signs outshining the stars of heaven to advertise the stars of theaterland.
 As yet the display of light in Pic cadilly seems but q weak imitation of the real thing" to one whose eyes have been thrilled by Broad way. but each month more and more British business men abandon their ingrained distaste for display adver- tising and bigger and brighter signs add their glare to the theater dis trict. There is as yet nothing so amusing as the kitten that used to play with a ball of twine in the lights over Times Square, but there is the dog. Bonzo. the British count er-part to to Felix or Krazy-kat, puffing at cigarette; his tail wag- ging and eyes rolling most happily. And then there is such a sign as
