old ON MAY IS
First Anniversary of Installation OF
This Postal Service Will be
Observed on That Day.
PUBLIC TO WITNESS FLIGHTS
Same Six Planes Which Inaugural
ed System Wll Furnish Exhi-
bitiOn in Trial Trips.

The first anniversary of the in
auguration of postal air mail ser
vice will be observed May Is, on
which date the public will be invit-
ed to witness the flights from New
York and Washington, the postof-
fee department announces.
The same six planes with which
the service was inausurated, equip
ped with the same engines, will be
in these flights. Lieutenant J. c.
Edgerton, who piloted the first air
mail plane into Washington from
New York, and who is now chief
of flying operations of the postof-
fee department, will take the mail
from Washington to New York in
the same airplane, propelled by the
same engine in which he few to
Washington with the mail just one
year before.
When the air mail service was in
augurated it was predicted that the
service would be a seven days won
der, and it was declared that the
maximum life of any one of the
planes would be 140 hours actual
flying time.

and it transported by air over

5000, 900 letters.
The fact that the six original
planes with their engines have sur
vived this years flying through all
sorts of weather, snow, storms, and
winds, gales, with sometimes fore
ed landings, has demonstrated the
feasibility of commercial air ser
vice, and that commercial flying is
entirely different proposition
