Some of the nominees for the Independent’s Washington-Philadelphia Air Trip say that they are not sure they want to fly, preferring to make the trip both ways by rail and steamer; but Miss Ellen Hampton of Waterlily says it’s the air trip for her. Miss Hampton is a typical upstanding modern young American, and this newspaper ventures a bet that she will be among the first to win a trip at the expense of this newspaper.
