■SjKjlSgjZj New Aviation Device. Lewis L. Imm, formerly an inspector of the American Bureau of Air Commerce, shown with his latest device, called a “librascope,” which is calculated to save countless air line hours. It is a “design computor” which will enable engineers, merely by twisting a series of geared dials, to obtain maximum aeronautical efficiency out of planes-in-the-making. It will also correlate meteorological reports from all parts of the country. Working from data gained from wind tunnel tests of a model at his Burbank factory, Imm explained that plane designers will be able to compute the maximum speed, climb, altitude, and load obtainable under varying conditions, and translate this from the dials turned on the new instrument. The design apparatus consists of interlinked dials, each representing a known aviation factor. They affect each other like the figures in a series of simultaneous mathematical equations.

Do You Hale fo Meet People? of us are so bashful that whenever a new face appears before us, we mentally duck away! Maybe it isn’t shyness so much as simply not realising how very interesting new faces can be. Some people are shy about new foods, too. One family we know has had pork and beans every Saturday night for ten years, and they see no reason for changing! How much more interesting life —and dinner! would be foi that family with a new kind of meat, a vegetable prepared some other way, a new style in dessert. New foods—new faces—brighten our days and help make living an exciting game. Look through the advertisements in this newspaper today for new IDEAS in foods.
