NAVY FL|ER SPEEDS
244 MILES AN HOUR
Lieut.. Brow Skaters World Mark
Made on Monday

New York, Sept 14.-Piloting {
Navy Curtiss racing plane over "a
measured one kilometer course al
| Mitchell Field, near Mineola, l.. L.
Lieutenant H. j. Brow, of the nava
air service, yesterday shattered inter-
national records by attaining an of
fcially recorded speed of 244.15 miles
an hour On one of the round trips
over the course when he was flying
with the wind, it was said that Lieu
tenant Brow winged his way at the
rate of 255 miles an hour--faster
than any human being or bird has
ever travelled.
AS an aid in conceiving the speed
accomplished by the tiny plane, flyers
pointed out that the distance flown in
one minute at the rate of 244 miles
an hour was as far as the Battery to
Torty-fourth street. Reduced to feet
per second, each time the second
hand licked the plane had travelled
352 feet.
Lieutenant Brow broke the worlds
speed mark made on Monday by Lieu
tenant l.. Fl. Sanderson of the United
States Marine Corps, who piloted
Navy Wright plane over the same
course at the rate of 23S miles an
hour. Previous to that the record
was held by Lieutenant II. l.. Maugh-
an, who established speed of 236.5S
miles an hour at Dayton, Ohio, last
spring, in a Curtiss-Army pursuit
plane.

GALLON OF OIL FREE SATURDAY

An out and out gift of a gallon of
motor oil is acceptable to a1H auto
mobile owner. 1t is a foregone con-
cluson that New Britain car owners
are no different in this respect than
those in other sections. Saturday
they will have an opportunity to get
a gallon of high grade motor oil
without cost. merely by buying five
gallons of Dixie gasoline at the Dixie
station, 33 South Main street. Natur-
ally one may ask just why the Dixie
Filling Station is giving anything
away. the answer to which is all very
simple. The Dixie folks want more
New Britain motorists to know Just
how good their product is and there
is one way to prove the worth of the
fuel and that is to try it and be con-
WINGED. And. in order to induce those
who are still unacquainted with Dixie,
the gift will be made. IT docs not

CULTIVATION OF HABIT.

With the starting of the school year
everything that has to do with get
ting the most out of that year is inn
portant. The news tells us that the
school children of this city stand
third among the cities in the per-
centage of pupils having bank ac-
counts. Not only should the wisdom
of cultivating this habit of saving be
emphasized now, but there should be
clear understanding of Just what such
habit means and what it does not
mean; of how important in relation
to other matters of life it is and how
much less important the thrift habit
than some others.
Figures complied by the Saving
Bank division of the American Bank
ers Association for the school year
1929 show that in the group of
cities with 10000 or more school
children, New Britain's third position
comes from the fact that 11,271 out
of 1904 children in the city schools
have bank accounts. A total of sS2,-
1870 has been deposited by them
making the individual average de-
post s44S. These are the facts as
published in the news columns yes
terday.
The average amount saved by each
pupil may seem small, but in many
cases it represents probably a large
percentage of the cash given the
savers by their parents during the
whole year. In other cases il repre-
sents money made by doing crrands.
