Laugh and the work! laughs with you!

MAX FACTOR

It's rather difficult, however, to laugh when your powdor cakes or appears "mealy" on your face when you go to the big Race Meetings.

How useless this seems to the scroes stars! They have discovered a Locret that lets them laugh at this nemesis of attractiveness.

It's ridiculously simple! They just remove the excess powder from their faces with Face Powder Brush! You scoa powder puff packs the powder down while a brush clears the lines of the face of the surplus and leaves an even surface.

This soft white brush is a pert and efficient answer to a brow-creasing problem. After putting on your powdor as evenly as possible, the trick is to use the brush lightly and carefully remove all surplus powder

leaving a smooth, velvety finish.

Steal a stunt from the stars-I'm sure they won't mind!

R100's BUILDER

INVENTS WARPLANE

NO BULLET CAN HARM

THE Air Ministry have placed a very large order with Vickers (Aviation), Limited, for a new type of super-warplane for the Royal Air Force, built on a secret principle so revolutionary that its full significance is not yet clear even to experts.

Hit By Gale

WORLD'S LARGEST SEAPLANE

SINKS OFF

FLORIDA

Paris, Feb. 3.

The world's largest seaplane, the Lieutenant de Vaisseau Paris, was sunk in a gale during the night while riding at anchor in Pensacola Bay, off the Florida coast. No one was on board.

A squall of terrific force suddenly bit the 37-ton 'plane and lifted

it into the air. It soured like kite at the end of its mooring cable, and then overturned, plunging to the bottom of the bay.

The news of the calamity to the machine, which was built for a regular service across the South Atlantic, was received by the Air Ministry in a telegram from the commander, Capt. Bonnot.

Capt. Bonnot stated that attempts were being made to refloat the 'plane. Latër messages, however, revealed that divers had found that the engines were embedded in the mud and that one wing appeared to be damaged.

The 'plane, which crossed the South Atlantic two weeks ago as a test for a regular service, has 12 double cabins and can carry 30 passengers in comfort approaching that of a linor. She has six engines.

Medical Problems In China

L

Doctors Who' Face "Unscrupulous Opposition"

The difficulties facing the modern doctor in China were re- ferred to by Dr. Douglas Guthrie, at the annual meeting to the Edinburgh Medical Missionary Society recently

Dr. R. A. Fleming, President of the Society, said it was true the ordinary income did not meet the ordinary expenditure, but the financial path had been smoothed by the reception of a quite ex- traordinary number of legacies.

Moving the adoption of the roport and accounts, Dr. Guthrie, ja director of the Society, in an account of a. visit paid intely to Australia and the Far East, spoke of medical practices in China to-day, where the need for doctors in rural districts, in which there was a poor financial return, was unspeakably great, though there, ware hospitals and doctors for the rich.

Performance Will

Create Sensation

One of the now 'planes is now at Brooklands awaiting further teata by Vickers. Air. Ministry pilots and engineers are impatient to y

it.

It is claimed that its per- formance up to date, if dis closed, would cause one of the greatest sensations in aviation since the Wright brothers first flew in 1903.

The new process of manufacture can also be used for commercial nircraft. Air-liners with ranges of several thousands of miles, carrying passengers and freight In their wings, can be built on this principle.

Wallis Geodetic mall-planca could reach Singapore or Cape- town in sixty hours, it is declared, even at present cruising speeds.

Barnes Wallis, the Inventor, is a middle-aged, silver-haired, gentle- voiced vegetarian, a Bachelor of Selence. Ho was one of the builders of the airship R 100.

R 100, British Government arship, made a return flight to Canada in 1030. She cost £500,000, was sold for serup after the R 101 disaster.
