DRINK
 INTRODUCED IN
 NEW YORK CITY
Only Costs Five Cents Per
 Long Bow Also Mak- ing Hit at Metropolis
By GEORGE TUCKER

NEW YORK, Aug. 18.-Want to hear about papena? That's the new tropical drink in New York. Made from the papaya fruit and milk. They whip them together in 8 matted milk container, and it costs five cents. I must ask Sloppy Joe what he thinks about it, and Dirty Frank. Joe specializes in pine apple drinks. Frank sells cocoanut milk. Their stands dot Broadway like the spotted typhus. And now papena with it's tropical wiles edges into the scene.
 The papaya is an ancient fruit but it never made much headway in this country until recently. l understand it's doing very well in Florida now But it's a funny fruit. Tt has to ripen on the tree or it never attains maximum of sweet ness. Take it green, as you do ba- nanaS or tomatoes, and it doesn't become luscious. That's held it back.
 The papaya looks like a big gourd, or maybe it's a melon. They crush it in your presence on Broad way now, and add the milk, and let 'er churn. Mighty refreshing, but as to taste I still don't know a thing. It doesn't taste like any thing I know Have to go back and try it again before I make up my mind.

A short story, a book, or play is a product of one find. A motion picture is the product of many minds and much machinery. And you'd even be surprised how little of a writer's own work is later found in a can of films. He's lucky if the girl is still called Mary. In fact, if there's still a girl.

Now consider the long bow. You haven't had any gray goose quills whizzing past your curls, have you? You're liable to if you fool around New York. It's the Robin Hood influence. All the kids think they're Errol Hymns.
 Every empty lot has become Sher- wood forest And, to do the thing up brown, the kids even cudgel one another about the head with stout broomsticks. No casualties yet but keep your fingers crossed. All the stores are offering bows and ar rows. Archery leagues have been formed and shooting matches for silver cups are held regularly. Not just for kids, but for adults Any day now I expect to come home looking like a porcupine.

OLDTIMER IN HOLLY YW0OD IS
 GIVING ADVICE
Just Tells Writers What to Expected Tell Story

Sam HelIman, the Twentieth Century Fox writer and humOr- ist, pinch hits today for Col umnist Robbin Coons, who is on vaeation.)
By SAM HELLMAN

HOLLYWOOD, Aug. 18.-Having spent several years as a newspaper man and magazine writer and an- other several years in pictures, am thoroughly prepared to set my self up as pundit, and between sitting around on dais raptly re- garding my navel, to deliver all manner of advice to those writers in other fields who are hungering for the flash pots of Hollywood. And I am the better prepared to give this advice since nobody has asked for it. Nothing is so fruity as unsolicited advice.
 Having arrived in Hollywood and settled down in a five hundred thousand dollar house with onyx swimming pools and pheasant con verts, the new writer will be shock ed to learn that there is no market whatever for such gifts as he may have of strirging words together into a mellifluous whole and of plumbing depths of character. The picture business will have none of them. Nor will it turn handsprings over subtlety, nuances, or fine shadings of irony and satire The only thing writer has of possible value is the gift of telling an in teresting story.

And you don't tell that story with wordS-you tell it with a Camera. If you can't see it, it just isn't there. Dialogue? Of course, there's dialogue in pictures plenty of it. much too much of it. But you can put this down in your little red book: Dialogue is never the strength of a picture; it is its weakness. A motion picture is just what the two words say picture that moves. Occasionally, words may help it move, but the first lesson, my children, is: If it can't be writ ten with a Camera, don't write it.
 Secondly: The new writer in these parts might just as well leave his precious individuality, his artistic integrity at home in his other suit,

WORLD WIDENING
ITS SUPPLY SOURCE
OF WEATHER DATA

NEW YORK, Dec. 6.-CUP)-
International cooperation in the
development of meteorology IN
the past year was praised by Alex
ander Klemin, director of New
York University's Daniel Guggen-
helm School of Aeronautics, at
the 59th annual meeting of the
American Society of Mechanical
Engineers here.
Klemin praised contributions by
the U. s. weather bureau in me-
teorology, but criticized discontin-
uance by the army in its upper air
observations.
although the Standardization
of meteorological practice is still
far from complete" Klemin said,
1.-The groundwork has been firmly
laid and the various commissions
of the international Meteorolog-
ical Organization have served to
render every meteorologist con-
scious that the scope of his phase
of geOphysics is worldwide and
transcends political boundaries"
He said the U. S. weather bu-
reau, in cooperation with the
army. had network of Is sta
lions making regular airplane-me-
teorograph flights into the sub
shakespeare in 1886. About this
time the radio-meteorograph was
introduced. The radio-meteoro-
graph was made up of balloon
which transmitted regular weather
reports to a receiving set on the
ground as it assembled.
1T is great pity that concur
rently with their introduction
came what was tantamount to a
breakdown of the Astrological net
work." Klemin said. "Most serious
contributing factor in this was the
withdrawal of the U. S. army from
the program, which resulted in the
abandonment of the collection of
upper-air data at seven (weather)
stations. Even if radio-meteoro-
graph stations are put in by the
army in their stead, the full num-
Der of stations will not be opera
tive for a considerable time.
Klemin said airlines had con-
tributed much to the progress of
meteorology.
"The requirements of the air
transport companies are so exact
ing that for their demands to be
satisfied necessarily means con-
tinual improvement in the quality
of weather data" he said. "1m-
portant is that fact that even the
smaller air transport companies
now realize the ACCESSIBILITY of en-
ploying trained meteorologists The
urgency for considerable improve
ment of observations at sea has
been called to general attention
by the proposed establishment of
transatlantic air service"

.. s. GAS MASK
NEEDS ACUTE
Shortage in Reserve Unit
Equipment Declared
Most Serious

WASHINGTON, Dec. 6. (UP).
Major General Albert II. Bland
ing said last night that an acute
shortage of gas masks in the ma
tional guard considerably weak
cned that branch Of the army re-
serves by making it impossible. to
give the men adequate training
in chemical warfare.
In his annual report to Secre-
tary of War Harry Fl. Woodring,
the chief of the national guard
bureau said that only eight gas
masks per 100 men now are avail
able and that the shortage is one
of the "most serious" in the re-
serve unit.
He also criticized the units
lack Of proper facilities and
training camps for the conduct OF
musketly field firing and for ex-
eIciscs Of machine gun and
howitzer companies. He added
that the national guard was sadly
deficient in engineering equip
ment.
Blanding disclosed that under
recent authorization to increase
the allotment of airplancs for the
guard from III to 1875, he plan
ned to assign one additional ship
to each squadron for use by air
corps instructors in giving instru-
