Paris Aug. 21 R,-Tn q few days

Paris Aug. 21 Pl-Tn a few days at the earliest possible moment it is the purpose of two French bird men to start on a nonstop flight in their airplane from Paris 10 New York.
 In an interview with Excelsior the two avatoris, Lieutenants Francois Coli and Paul Tarascon, both maim- cd French veterans, said that imme- diately their 429-horsepower nine cylinder plane was ready, they would start winging their flight westward across the Atlantic. Tarascon will pilot the machine, and Coli. who is a skilled navigator. will direct his course.
 Coll. while admitting the difficult ties in the way of success were great said he did not believe them insurmountahle. Allowing for the spherical shape of the earth, the

distance to be covered was only 5000 kilomctcrs (S,72S.2s mlles). The great thing, he added, was to find attitudes where the wind would be favorable.
 The plane. which already has been given a successful trial flight at the Nillacoublay flying field, is fitted with a navigraph. This is con- Sidered an indispensable accessory. since the course will have to be changed every quarter of an hour, once for every degree, to allow for magnetic declination. Another access sory Is a small canvas buoy line, to he used as sheet anchor and which. in case the machine falls into the sea, will keep its head to the wind. To save weight in the flight, the landing wheels will be dropped at the start and the plane will make its landing on its shell. the body and wings being proteced by sprags.

AUTUMN BEGINS
 SEPTEMBER 23 Position Of Stars and Planets
 Then Is Interesting

Washington, Aug. 21 R-On Sep tember 2S at 1:44 p. m., Greenwich civil time the sun will cross the equator going south in the constel- lation of Virgo. Autumn then will begin in the northern hemisphere and spring in the southern hemi- sphere. The planet Mars, which has been too close to the sun to be seen for some weeks, will be in con- junction with the sun on September IS. It will be at it's greatest dis tance from the earth on September 1, when 1t will be about 247,000 miles away.
 One of the features of the skies on September nights says a bulletin by the American Nature association is the Northern Cross in the milky way and surrounded by field of stars of great beauty. From mid latitudes of the northern hemisphere at o'clock in the evening one may see athwart the meridian and di- rectly overhead this cross in the constellation of Cygnus, the Swan. Adjoining it on the east is the small constellation of Tyre, the harp, with it's brilliant Vega.
 Unlike CruX, the Southern Cross, pride of the southern hemisphere which is remarkably small and com- pact, the Northern Cross is large and somewhat crude and irregular in outline. Both have for backgrounds exceptionally brilliant fields of stars in the milky way. There are found, also, numerous dark nebulous re- gons like dark holes or "coalsacks" among the brilliant clouds.
 Astronomers know these seeming gaps and chasms in the dense, star " backgrounds of both Northern and Southern Cross are vast clouds of dark meteoric, dustlike particles swirling through space and thrown Into relief against a brilliant back ground of stars. They occur every where throughout the milky way, but are particularly in evidence in Cygnus in the vicinity of the North ern Cross, as well as near CruX, the Southern Cross, made famous by the early explorers of Central and South America. Our Northern Cross, nev- ertheless: is one of the beautiful groups of stars.

 ALL FACTS HIDDEN
Spanish Situation and Attempt. ed Assassination Unexplained

New York, Aug. q Pl-The cen- sorship in Spain, which has been imposed upon feature stories. local, foreign and national news and head lines, apparently is preventing for the moment the truth or falsity of circumstantial story related by traveller arriving at Hendaye, France, from Santander, Spain, of an alleged attempt to assassinate King Alfonso at Santander last Saturday night.
 Recently there have been other re- ports of plots against the life of the Spanish monarch, and an official statement issued in Madrid on June 10 admitted one plot. This was the finding of a bomb on the railway track between Saragossa and Bar celona over which Alfonso was to pass, The explosive was discovered before the kings train arrived, how ever, and was removed. Several persons were arrested and were said to have confessed participation in an
 
 The story of the traveller at Hen dave was to the effect that tall well dressed man put his hand in his pocket as the royal automobile In which the king was approaching neared him. A suspicious movement fin changing his dark eyeglasses to clear glasses was noticed by the secret service men, who took him into custody.
 It was asserted In Barcelona, ac- cording to the traveller, that the king had been wounded in the shoulder. that the Duke of Maranda had been killed and the kings chauffeur wounded. He added that there was no attempt to hide the fact that there was a plot against Alfonso In several cities, participated in by foreigners and that the police were taking extraordinary precau- tions to protect the monarch.

REPORT GIVEN ON
 CHRISTMAS FUND
Miss Elizabeth Heineman Gives
 Account Of Health Work
SPECIAL BOWLING MATCH
To Open New Rcstaurant--Lena WeIs Funeral-Liquor Trials To- day - Chamber of Commerce Mecting-Plainyille Briefs.

An excellent report on the Christ mas fund was submitted to the regu- lar meeting of the plainville Public Health Nursing Association held Tuesday evening in the town hall. | The fund was a gift from friend and has been used with good discre- ton by Miss Elizabeth Heineman, public health nurse. One case of deceptive vision was sent to New Britain for treatment and fitted with eye glasses. Shoes and coat were provided for q child unable to at tend school and several other help full kindnesses were made possible by this gift.
 | Miss Heineman in her report for January stated that S3 patients were under her care during that time i with a total number of POT visits made. Her touch with the schools and town is q close and sympathetic one.
 r. The Christmas Seal sale receipts total $660.l0. With 15 per cent deduction due to the state associa- ton and the necessary expense Of | collection, the tuberculosis fund nets the association s496.20, with l few letters yet unheard from. The | town has responded wonderfully well and the committee on the sale of the seals feel well repaid for it's | efforts.
 The members of this committed feel that it is undoubtedly because of the volunteer personal work done that the expenses of the campaign were cut down and also because of the hearty response of persons and organizations to letters and health bonds that the Plainville Public Health Nursing association reports a balance of $l39.SS more than last year. A few more dollars may be added to this sum when the few out standing letters are heard from. l
 Last years expenses were s101.SS and the net receipts, $S57.02. This years expenses were $64SS and the net receipts. $496.20.
 It was voted at the meeting to send one boy, now excluded from the local schools because of tuber- culoss tendencies. to the New Brit ain Open Air schools. The funds of the association now permit this. Children with such tendencies are carefully watched by the board of health and the visiting nurse.
 The plans for the distribution Of milk in the schools, approved by the school committee, has necessarily been held up while awaiting the clearing up of the scarlet fever cpl demic in Bristol. When the health officer, nurse and committee feel that the time is suitable, the distri- button will be started to the great benefit of underweight children and their consequent mental program.
 The association has been fortu- nate in securing Mrs. James Simp- son as new director to fill out the uncxpired term of Mrs. OIdcrshaw. Already Mrs. Simpson has proved her usefulness in the devoted work she has rendered as treasurer of the Christmas seal campaign and the board of directors is glad to welcome her as co-worker. The treasurer, Mrs. William Cassidy, has been glad of an ally in this extra work as she is sufficiently busy with the regular

BERLIN WILL HAVE
 IMPROVED SERVICE
Bryan Says Something Will Be
 Done Soon, No Doubt
ADD TWO EXTRA BUSSES
Car Has Two Crashes Within Hour Well Baby Conference-Quartct Appeals to Kensington People Meetings Are Postponed.

"No doubt something will be done for the betterment Of conditions in the near future," said William J. Bryan, superintendent of the New Britain division of the Connecticut company today, in talking of the congestion on the Berlin bus line, regarding which there has been much protest on the part of Berlin people.
 Mir. Bryan said that he has en- deavored to relieve this situation somewhat for the present. at least, by running four busses during the rush hours. These busses have al- ready been placed in service and run on 20 minute schedule, one fol- lowing the other, so that those who are unable to board one bus will not have to wait long for the other.
 There was a report current in Berlin today that new Pierce ArroS7 busses would soon be placed on the Berlin line, these busses being capa- ble of accommodating 40 persons each. It was said, however, that these new machines would not be placed in service until road condi- tions improve.
 Mir. Bryan said he had not been notified of any such action on the part of the Connecticut company and said that he knew nothing of this proposed change.
 The petitions circulated through out Berlin have met with great suc- cess as far as the collection of sig natures has been concerned. Nearly every resident of Berlin, dependant on the busses for transportation. has affixed his name to the documents which will present a weighty argu- ment for improved service when
