To ho sure, the maestro has been able to spend a little time In his homo town of Kerraia. ami take a lirlef cure at the famou.; watering place of KulsomaKKiore. liut aside from a few secret, furtive trips into France, tier many and Austria, in order to listen faultily and stealthily ' new performances or promisim; artists, he has stayed pretty close, all summer long, to the shade of the mighty Milan cathedral and the cool and dark recesses of th -' "nllei'li.1" surrotindiiiK it. "I do not follow any kind f sport," he told The Associated Press, "and my only exercises is to take some walks. Do you think, my dear sir, that a life so little inlorestliiK deserves to he told to tho readers that are so anxious for novelties, brilliant and Konsutional things? 1 myself don't think so.' So the correspondent turned to other members of Cattl-L'asazza'tf famous company, and found they were combining a considerable amount if work with their play. Take, for example, that deflect, able diva, Leonora Corona. To see her disporting herself on the beach at ltimini. alternating swimming with sun-baths, one would sur mise that there was no other thought under her dark locks t hun drinking in all the salt sea air from the Adriatic Yet Signorina Oirona, right up to the end of July, was out ting in three hard, conscientious hours a day on three very difficult roles that she will interpret at the Met ropolitan this eomiiig season. In August she tailed out to fulfill engagements at a number of spe cial performances in Italy. A nut her Metropolitan star who refuses to make his vacation mot Mo "all play and no work" is the tenor lioniamino igti.

That little job done, he plunged forthwith into the mineral bath at Agn uano. near Naples. These, he claims, did a great amount of good to his tired nerves, and he succeeded in waltzing off a con siderable amount of avoirdupois. There followed a brief three weeks of play at his villa In l'o: toiecanall, near the Adriatic, with his family, where he went In for himtinfc-. horseback fiding. and motoring. And then he planned to wind up his summer with 1 0 more recitals in Central Europe. u::. il mi .l. sp. r.it. l y ' uv.TSflls lV 111.' I il. vi-.ilvt, I'lHUiai'. ; "' '" " , K.III.

Lindbergh.' is offered by I Fuller & Co., paLnt manufacturers. A letter from the company to all Chambers of Commerce in-1 lu st ate. offers five gallons of paint for this purpose, lrovided only that the community will select n suitable location and have the paint applied. This Idler, In part, reads as follows: '"One of the major problems facing aviation today is the ne cessity for adequate city air mark ings. ThLs is borne oxit by the fact that the Department of Com merce and the' (.uggeihelm Fund are both launching intensive cam paigns urging city air marking everywhere in the United States. "The AW l. Fuller & Co. offer your community, without churge, five gallons of paint for this pur pose. This fiunntity should prove sufficient to complete the marking in a manner suggested by the De partment of Commerce, as out lined in their Aeronautics Bulle tin on Air Marking for Cities, copv of which is enclosed for your in formation. "We trust Unit, in the event your city Is not already proper ly air-mnvked. you will avail your self of our offer, in order that your community will be brought to the attention of the flying pub lic as vvU as providing a much needed aid to aerial navigation." la the opinion of Colonel Char les A. J-lndbrrgh, technical ad viser lo the finggenheim Fund, this identification of cities and towns represents one of the most worth-while, sleps that can b" taken for the advancement of civil aviation. i nPHifim iiPu v-:r"-; -Mfirmv Herewith is youtfiful Frank Wykoff, reigning Pacific Coast track sensation, hailed by experts the country over as the successor of Charlie Paddock, "fastest human," making the acquaintance of the fleet 1930 Buick phaeton. Wykoff lias been an enthusiastic booster of Buicks ever since admirers in his home city, Glendale, Calif., presented him with a Quick sedan following early sensational track victories.

Test the wiper occasionally, and lubricate It once In a- while by putting a drop of oil In the mechanism. You can kick a tire all you want to, but no too is educated to tell what the air pressure is.
