LIBERTY MOTOR

HERE FOR TESTS

naval airplane. equipped with tive
OF the famous Liberty motors. Is be-
ing tuned up today in the naval air
plane hangar on the Eastern branch
OF the Potomac at Anacostia.
The airplane arrived yesterday, nv
ing $50 miles between this city and
Hampton Ro4ds. its starting point. in
little less than two hours. Although
actual flying time would indicate a
speed OF ninety miles an hour the
actual aying speed was faster. as the
pilot was forced Off his course sew
eTal times.
Another new development was add
ed TO the aviation program OF Wash
ingtOn yesterday when Lieut.. Georges
Flachsire, the French pilot who flew
from Mineola, Long Island. to this
city few days ago assembled. and
demonstrated to officials OF the flying
section OF the Signal Corps the capS-
biIities OF the Spad machine. used on
the French front by the allied air
scouts.
He rose from hangers at Potomac
Park. and within a few minutes gave
demonstration OF flying. the like of
which seldom has been seen in
America. All the Stunts demon
strated by the American and British
flyers in the past were handled by
and others. even more difficult. were
executed with ease.
His plane, with q seat only for a
pilot. is armored. and IL capable OF
making a speed OF $50 miles an hour.

American naval officers are dissat

miral Sir Lewis Bayly. is the local
commander where the United States
destroyer fleet makes its headquarters
in Europe, and directs all the AmerI-
can as well as the British units
operating from that point.
Strong representations are being
made to Secretary OF the Navy Dan
iels that an American naval officer Of

mand. and that the destEoyers should
not he under British direction.
While the number of American de-
stroyers abroad was small, it is ar
gued. 1t was logical that they should
work as a part OF the British orCani-
zation. Now that the United States
fleet has reached considerable proper
tions and includes some OF the latest

feel the time has arrived for complete

Compare TrocO zOith the
Best Creamery Butter

The test of Troco is on the
table, in comparison with the
best creamery butter. This is
where it wins butter lovers.
For cooking it has no equal,
either in results or from the
standpoint of economy. Troco
goes farther than butter.
Old laws, made before Troco
was invented, compel us to label
it as an oleomargarine. This is
extremely misleading.
Troco is a quality product
used in homes where only the
best is tolerated. Here flavor,
quality and the assurance of fas-
tidious manufacturing methods
insure the popularity of Troco.

SolpeS the Butter
Problem

Troco is not merely butter
substitute; it is the successor to
butter. 1t tastes exactly like the
finest creamery butter and is as
digestible as butter, with the
same high nutritive value.
Troco solves the butter prob
lem for those who hitherto have
used nothing but the best cream
cry butter. These critical users
say that rarely is butter so
sweet and delicate in flavor.
But don't just ask for nut

expect to enjoy this de luxe
flavor.
Ask for Troco and get the real
butter favor.
