Scholars
As to the use of the airship, the Navy decided to educate the U S. public, beginning at the top. It took aboard the Los Angeles 33 leading citizens of the Philadelphia district and flew them around for seven hours. A first-class luncheon was provided.
Among those present: Irenee and Pierre S. du Pont (powder) ; George Horace Lorimer (magazine*) ; Eldridge R. Johnson (phonographs) ; Atwater Kent (radio).
On the earth below, Mrs. Kent was driving in an automobile equipped with radio. Of a sudden she heard her master's voice.
Next day, the lesson was issued to the rest of the public through the vicarious press.
