S5O,OOO PRIZE FOR
 CROSS SEA FLIGHT
Americans Urged to Com pete in English Transat-
 lantic Contest.

New York, Nov. 20-A cablegram received yesterday by the Aero Club of America from the Royal Aero Club of Great Britain announced that the London Daily Mail cross-Atlantic flight for purse of $5O,O0O was open under the regulations which had been made public.
 Alan R. Hawley, chairman of the contest committee of the Aero Club of America, said a number of planes were under construction here with the idea of making the crossing in different ways and he expected several entries would be made with his organ ization.
 'The flight made by British Had ley-Page plane with 40 passengers a few days ago, and the fact that we have large Caproni airpIanes almost ready to take the air necessitates haste on the part of Americans who wish to. compete for the prize. It is to be given the first aviator who crosses from any point in the United States, Canada or Newfoundland, to any point in Great Britain or Ireland in 72 con- secutive hours. The flight may be made either way across the Atlantic.
 The competition is open to persons of any nationality holding an aviator's certificate issued under the rules of the International Aeronautic Fedora ton by the Aero Club of America here and the Royal Aero Club of Great Britain on the other side. Only one aircraft may be used for each attempt | to fly across the Atlantic. It may be repaired en route and will be so marked before starting that it can be ! identified upon reaching the other side. Intermediate stops may be made only upon the water. The start may | be made from either land or water, | but at the finish the competitor must cross the coast line in flight" MT. Hawley said that, considering the development of flying during the last few years, the flight was not a
 difficult one and that he expected il
 to be made successfully within a short
 time.

LYRIC

Realism, mystery, phsycholoGy and sensation form a combination in the production of the already famous pro- duction, "De Luxe Annie" now being presented by the Poli Players at the Lyric theatre which is practically ir- resistible to all who have seen it this week. Right from the rise of the curtain the audience is thrilled as the discussion between learned men takes place in the smoking compartment of the Pullman car and the story which the doctor is telling is later portrayed with touch of the realism that keeps them in their seats until the final q drop.
 ''De Luxe Annie" is a story of a physiological phenomena which ac- cording to the annals of the medical fraternity is founded in truth. The story is taken from story in real life and the scenes are laid in the ex- act sections where the occurrence took place Some of the strongest situations take place in New Canaan, which, because of its close proximity to Bridgeport makes it doubly inter- esting to local theatregoers. Miss
 
 was never better, and Clay Clement as her crook pal and all around confi- dence man, is also at his best. As the original "De Luxe Annie" whose per. sonality the heroine has adopted, Miss Mabel Griffen does excellent work and Grant Erwin, who is seer in sev eral characters, shows up in his usua satisfactory fashion He Is at his bes in the character of MT. Munroe, thu hardware merchant with whom tn confidence duo have an affair.
 Next week the Poh Players vii celebrate Thanksgiving week in fit ting manner by the presentation o that popular country play, 9Th Dairy Farm" The production is tn equal if not the superior of such sue cesses as "The Old Homestead" an, "'Way Down East" both of whic are too well known to require an comment

An Inside Bath Makes You Look
 and Feel Fresh
Says a glass of hot water with phosphate before breakfast
 keeps illness away.

Physicians the world over recom- mend the inside bath, claiming this is of vastly more importance than out side cleanliness, because the skin pores do not absorb impurities into the blood, causing i'll health, while the pores in the ten yards of bowels do.
 Men and women are urged to drink each morning, before breakfast a glass of hot water with a teaspoonful of limestone phosphate in it, as a harmless means of helping to wash from the stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels the previous days indigestible material, poisons, sour bile and toxins thus cleansing, sweetening and purify ing the entire alimentary canal before putting more food into the stomach.
 Those who wake up with bad breath, coated tongue, nasty taste or have a dull, aching head, sallow con- plexion, acid stomach; others who are subject to bilious attacks or constipa- tion, should obtain a quarter pound of limestone phosphate at the drug store. This will cost very little but is sufficient to demonstrate the value of inside bathing.-Adv.
