“WINGS” NOW SHOWING
IN PITTSBURGH.
“Wings,” the War in the Air, is Run-
ning at the Nixon, in Pittsburgh.
The Movie of Thrills,
The war in the air has never been
so strikingly set upon the screen as
in “Wings,” now playing to such tre-
mendous business at the Nixon thea-
tre, Pittsburgh. Not only American
squadrons are seen among the clouds
but the German flying circus is in ev-
idence, as is a gigantic Gotha bomber
that goes soaring down the skies with
two pursuit planes, tiny in compari-
son, roaring along at its flanks.
Not alone crystal clear photography
but a magnificent screen has been
used to intensify the spectacle of com-
bat high above the lines; and for once
there are stage “effects” that do not
fail their purpose in suggesting pur-
ring motors and the snarling whine
of a coming shell. Nor is the aerial
photography in any sense “studio
stuff.” “Dog fights,” day patrols
whirring into the pale light of dawn,
planes shot down in a whistling streak
of flame are so clearly shown they
seem almost inside the theatre.
Walter Wellman, the director, has
used his cameras cannily in these se-
quences, angle shots that might be
the despair of any German, are in-
serted with telling effect; at times, it
seems, the camera went aloft on a
plane, at other times, it followed down
the field a scout patrol just swaying
off the ground.
Among other scenes which Well-
man’s cameras have brilliantly caught
are hilarious incidents at the “Folies
Bergeres,” with folk of all nations
busily forgetting the war and its
work. On the other hand, there are
panoramic and breath-snatching
glimpses of an army moving to the
front. “Men! Men! Men! Guns! Guns!
as Laurence Stallings would have put
it.
The handling of the human element
of the film is unusually good in its
little incidents, a German ace scorn-
ing to shoot down a disarmed oppon-
ent, a student flyer nibbling a bit of
chocolate as he goes gaily to his last
flight, a soldier stiff and dead, a cig-
arette still smoking at his lips as a
shell goes by.
A DISPLEASING PREDICTION.
A Mont Clare Prophet Says It’s to
be Cold and Wet.
A cold, wet spring is forecast by
George Brown, 77, of Mont Clare, who
for years has been regarded in his
Montgomery county community as a
weather prophet of remarkable uc-
curacy. Mr, Brown bases his conclu-
sion on his “instruments,” the signs
of nature.
A cool spring, he says, is indicated
by the activity of moles in burrowing
into the ground and by other signs
such as the return southward of wild
geese. April, he says, will be un-
usually wet, and May will continue to !
be cool, but June will be one of the
warmest months of the year.
Mr. Brown maintains he has made
a higher percentage of forecasts that
were fulfilled lately than George S.
Bliss, United States forecaster at
Philadelphia. He has predicted each
heavy snowfall this winter.
Officials at the Weather Bureau
smiled at George Brown's forecast of
a cool spring. “No one can say what
the weather will be that far ahead,”
they said. “An excess of 129 degrees
of temperature has been built up this
year, while there is a deficiency of
1.78 of rainfall. Therefore. the theory
of probabilities would lead one to be-
lieve that the spring would be cool
and wet to even matters up. But that
doesn’t hold. You can’t tell. About
all we know is that we will always
‘have some kind of weather. Our fore-
casts prove correct 85 per cent of tha
time.” .

Keep Moulding in Place.
On many makes of cars, the run-
ning board is a thin metal strip which
is susceptible to looseness. In winter,
particularly, it suffers from the prac-
tice of many car owners of scraping
their shoes on it before entering the
car. If the moulding shows signs of
breaking loose, the motorist probably
will find reattachment but a moment’s
task. Allowing it to go unrepaired
will result in breakage with decidedly
bad effect upon the appearance of the
car.

Thrilling Inside Stories of World War
Submarine Battles.
Lowzll Thomas has written a fas-
cinating chronicle of the exploits of
commanders of submarines during the
World war. These recitals emphasize
the importance of the submarine in
warfare, particularly at this time
when effort is being made to abolish
all submarines.
Mr. Thomas gathered these thrilling
reminiscences of war-time adventure
through personal contact with U-boat
sailors at the close of the war. They
are most impellingly interesting read-
ing of adventures that will thrill you
as you read them.
This most important series starts
in the Sunday New York American
with the issue of April 15th, 1928,
and continues each week over a con-
siderable period of time.
Tell your local newsdealer to save
you a copy of the American, or pin
