ENCL|SHMAN MAKES
 GREAT FLIGHT
MAKES 4 TRIP OF t70 MILES FROM ENGLAND INTO
 BELGIUM.

DOVER, Eng. Dec IS. - An aer ial journey of more than 170 mile. from England into Belgium. upon hiplane of British construction, ha. been made today by Mr. T. SopWith young English airman aged % His flight. which lasted 3ia hours was an attempt to win the G4,0Ot prize offered by Baron de Forest fol the British pilot who. steering ar aeroplane of purely British construc ton, flies furthCst from Englanf into the Continent before December q.
 MT, Sopwith, who returned from Belgium this morning, thus describes his flight:
 As I left the hying-ground at Eastchurch and began to climb in an endeavor to attain an altitude of 1000 feet. the wind blew so strongly that l only progressed against il at the rate of five miles an hour When l swung around and went with it. however. I leaped through he air at the rate Cf 60 miles an hour In little less than half an hour 1 had reached the coast line al Dover - distance of 30 miles. My cross channel flight was rec. ord one. | passed between Dover France distance of about 2t miles. in % minutes
 Making an aerial detour 10 avoid some hills l endeayCrCd to steer towards Chalons by the aid of a compass l carried with me. but l soon lost my way. The sun went in; l had nothing to direct myself by, so I just kept flying on. Towns and villages passed below me: l knew none of their names. Then the wind began to get moro Eusty. The machine swayCd and lurchcd. and the arm with which l moved he controlling lever began to ache.
 Just as l was flying over a viii lage about 500 feet high a very ugly gust caught my machine on one side and tilted it partly over. To my COnsternatiOn the aerOplane refus- d to regain it's normal rositfrn even when l eXerted the full measure of the small balancing planes fixed to the rear ends of the main planes. It was moment | am not likely 10 forget. Changing hands quickly on my steering lever. l leaned over as far as l could from my driving seat SO as tO be able to throw the weight of my body against the rising wing of my machine. Just when I thought I should slide holplessly down through the air the machine slowly riehted itself, but another gust assailed me and l had to look out for a landing place, although l had II gallons of petrol left in my tank and the engine had not missed fire once. A field near a village presented itself. I planed down and sat still quite exhausted.
 "A Belgian peasant was working on the road near by. His nonchal. ance was amazing. He merely stop ped his work in a leisurely way and gazed at me stolidly for several minutes. The apathy of the vii lagers, although they had never seen an aeroplane before was indeed re- markable. Two old women to whose cottage l went did not appear at all astonished that should have de, scended out of the air. All they wanted to know was what the weath CT was like in England"

HOW LARGE ARE THE OCEANS?

An officer of a liner once remarked that most men seemed to be as ig- norant about the size of the sea as they are of the distance between the heavenly planets. Here are a few facts: The Pacific covers 6S,000, 900 miles; the Atlantic 30,000,000 and he Indian ocean, Arctic and Antar- tic 42,O00,0 900. says TidBits. To stow away the contents of the Pacific it would be necessary to fill a tank one mile long, one mile wide and one mile deep every day for 440 years. PLr in figures, the Pacific holds in weight 94S,0O0, ,000, ,00O ,O00,- 000,o00 tons. The Atlantic averages depth of not quite three miles. It's waters weigh 325,000,0 100000, ,0OO OOO.- 900 tons, an tank to contain it would have each of its sides 43O miles long.
