$500 Airplanes
For Amateurs

London. May 18.-(A. p. by Mail.)
-Airplane flying promises to become
as popular in England as bicycling or
motoring. British manufacturers are
now perfecting light models of air.
craft that will cost little more than
a motorcycle. They are fitted with
small engines Of four horsepower
and have speed of SO miles an hour.
They leave the ground with q few
yards run and land at less than 25
miles an hour. The dangers are less
formidable than those of the big fly
ing machines, and anyone with a
rudimentary knowledge Of mechanics
can handle the new models.
In an effort further to popularize
flying, the British under secretary Of
state for air has offered q prize Of
$4,000 for light airplane competition
confined to British machines with a
maximum Of 8 horsepower. The cost
Of the airplane when completed is
not to exceed $500. A commendable
condition is ability for the machine
to be transported mile by two per-
sons within three hours, the test to
include getting out of a field through
the ordinary field gate and travel
ling along an average country road.
The competition is to take place in
September over a triangular course
Of not less than Is miles, and as the
minimum distance which must be
flown on the one gallon Of gasoline is
to be allowed Is so miles, there will be
ample encouragement to produce an
economical machine.

60 years. She was born and passed

town. Funeral services will be held

Vaughan Of Belfast, officiating.
Next Sunday will be Children's

when large number of babies and
children Will be christened by Rev.

The Boston Sunday papers carried
a story with pictures, of Jackson
Day. the biggest day of all the year
at Jackson College. the women's
division at Tufts. when the stage
success, Prunella was most success
fully given, Miss Carolyn Havener,
of Portland, the daughter of William
Havener, a former Belfast man, TAX
ing the title role. Miss Carolyn's
mother was the late Vannie Havener
of Belfast, and she spends her vaca-
tons here with her aunt, Mrs. Cecil
Clay, so Belfast has a perfect right
to claim her as its own.
Miss Ruth Knight, daughter of Mrs.
Sarah Knight of this city, will be
graduated from Wheaton College this
month and has just been honored
by being selected one of four from
many applicants, to receive a Teach
ing Fellowship at Brown University.
Captain Perry Coombs of the
steamer Castine, was in town Satur-
day and announced that the steamer
Castine will 90 the Belfast, West
IslesborO Camden route today. This
is good news to commercial travellers
and others, especially the Islesboro
people who come to Belfast to shop
and who have been cut off since last
winter. unless they took the ten mile
drive from Dark Harbor to the lime
kiln and came on the Golden Rod on
her Castine- Belfast route. Owing to
the ice carrying out the wharf on
Islcsboro at Smiths landing the
Castine could not be put into COM
mission until it was rebuilt. This
is now about completed, enough so
that passengers can be landed and
there will now be daily boat be-
tween these ports. The steamer will
leave Camden every morning, at
O'Clock, daylight saving time, making
the round trip to Belfast, with calls
at West 1Slesboro both ways. This
gives the Islesboro people an oppor-
tunity to shop in Belfast. Later in the
season the Castine will be added to
the route. thus giving delightful
sail on Penobscot Bay which the
summer visitors much appreciate
The new wharf has been built at a
cost of nearly $4,000 and it is believed,
