greater scale than ever before
against all physical forces detri
mental to health.
Hero under a director will be

Girls Drive Across Nation
Miss Lillian M. Publicover (right) and Miss Louise M. Standley, both of Boston, are
shown with their new Chevrolet Six, which they drove to the Pacific Coast recently. They
will cover approximately 12,000 miles in their car before getting home to the Massa
chusetts metropolis. They enjoyed their trip immensely, despite the difficulty they expe
rienced in making their wishes known. Westerners and Southerners just simply could not
translate the new England accent, according to the visitors.

publishers, are now available to

Already there has appeared a
new-novel by the prolific Utopian.

widely known in his native Nor

foreign version of the new-generation
siory, which must, according
to the usual pattern, be clever and
witty when It is not of the merely
flaming type.
Hoel, however, has not forced
" himself to write very wittily, or
cleverly. It's true the characters
do talk a lot, mostly about avoid-.

four young women, combining a
