Elaborate Preparations Made
 TREPASSEY, N. F., May IF (by As sociated Press) When the giant American hydroairplanes sped away into the east, over the Grand Banks and the broad Atlantic, last night, they entered upon course not only carefully charted, but patrolled by rescue and repair ships all the way to the Portuguese coast.
 Looking upon the cruise not as sporting venture, nor as an attempt merely to win for the United States the honor of the first transatlantic air flight but as an undertaking for the advancement of science and seaman ship, the American navy placed its own vast resources at the disposal of the aviators, and enlisted those of other government departments in an effort to assure the safety of the crews and to reduce to minimum the ele- ment of chance in the project.
 A fotilla of destroyers, reinforced by battleships whose more powerful wireless equipment was intended to pick up messages from the flyers in case the radio sets of the smaller ves- sels failed to function, formed a chain of communication across the Atlantic while the planes were proceeding to their base here. The destroyers were so close together that an hours steaming would bring one of them to the alighting place of any of the air craft forced to descend. Mother ships, tenders and other naval units, at in- teryals along the course, have me- chanics, tools, extra parts and gaso-

Goods That Should Be
Found in Every Home.

There is much to be said about
canned goods, but the old-fashioned
prejudice against the use of eatables
taken from can has vanished long
ago. In the past few years the can
ming industry has undergone a COM
plete regeneration. Every possible inn
provement and precaution has been
adopted and installed to insure the
output of the canning plants being
above suspicion. This has been made
necessary for several reasons In the
first place, first-class manufacturer
could not afford to place on the mar
ket any products that were not above
suspicion or the future of his busi-
ness would be very shortlived Compe-
tition is very keen, and he would in
stantly be swamped with failure.
Bargain sales in canned goods are
usually to be avoided because the
goods are of inferior quality, or have
been subjected to some sort of re-
processing. This does not mean that
there are never any bargains in canned
goods. The packer is sometimes forced
o sell at a loss The really important
thing in buying canned goods is to
see that the packers name is on the
ian.
Fortunately, it is a very easy matter
to tell when homemade canned goods
are good and when they are not good,

that happened when they were small.
When YOU read Franks story, you
can see some of the things the chill

First, they tried to get a good sub

Second, they left out everything
that did not help the main point.
Franks story began when he got the
balloon in his hand. and stopped when
it burst
Third, they tried to use words that
made pictures, like "pranced," clutch"
"shimmering." "tugginE,"
Fourth, they tried to use a balanced
sentence occasionally, like the last one.
