they have drained IS liters of gasoline,
but the measurement of the other tank
hasn't been exactly taken, as the
French mechanics didn't know how to
empty it.
There were 81 liters of, lubricating

America on Right Path.
The more / think about the way my

she shows i'm solving the problem of
long distance flying.
Our trip is a demonstration that
the American constructors are work
ing on the right lines. I do not mean
by that that a monoplane such as
used is the only kind of a ship that
should be used. ! mean only that for
the practical problem which we set
out TO solve we found the right solu-
ton.
Here i'm France, where they have
made so many records of speed, dis.

the future of aviation. how great the
interest is and how the imaginations
of all kinds of men are helping it
along.
Today I lunehed at the ministry Of
war with NJ. Painleve, who was the

Wright. He seems the right man to
be in charge of aviation, for his mathe.
nlatical discoveries have done as much
as anything to help flying forward to
the point where it is today.

BIDS FAREWELL TO FRENCH
Herrick, IN Plane, Escorts Flyer
Part Way to Belgium.

PARIS. May % LP).-Capt. Charles
A. Lindbergh flew away from Paris
this afternoon in the silver winged
ship of the sky that brought him here
from New York last Saturday night.
Heaped with hOnors from the
French people, he gave the capital
of Paris thrilling sight of his mono.
plane in the air before he turned it
toward Brussels. escorted by great
group of French airplanes. Flying
over the center of the city, he
dropped a French flag and a little
note of thanks that fell into the
Place de la Concorde, spot beloved
of all the voyaging world.
On the note that iuttered Gown
with the flag were these words:
Goodbye Paris, you have been good
to me. Goodbye"
Orteig Catches Flag.
Raymond Orteig, donor of the $685.
prize won by Lindbergh by his trans
atlantic flight. and Col. Lloyd Collins
caught the flag, and later sent the
aviator a message to Brussels tell
ing him about it. In the meatimc,
Lindbergh flew on toward LIE Bourget.
There he circled once more over the
field, then turned towards the north
and another land.
One of the planes which followed
him had aboard his host in Paris, the
American Amba ssador, Myron T. Her.
rick along with Mr.. and Mrs. Parmley
Herrick and Louis Bleriot, famous
French flyer, whose guests they were
in the air. They followed Lindbergh
as far as Senlis, where he dropped a
second flag and another message of
thanks.
1t was past midnight when Lind.
bergh slid into his bed at the embassy
last night, weary from week of
fetes and admiration, but at 1880 this
morning he was out at LIE Bourget
to prepare for his departure for
Belgium. He found that some one had
taken his pneumatic raft out Of his
monoplane and also two rubber cush.
ions and the chart for his log. He
seemed naturally irritated at this, but
was soon smiling again over his motor.
Thousands Wave Farewell.
Not many people succeeded in get
ting into the hanger, where his plane
remained behind closed doors until he
was ready to start, shortly after 1880.
Nor was the flying field crowded; the
police, republican guards and soldiers
saw to that.
But in Paris uncounted thousands
awaited the approach Of his plane in
his farewell swing over the city.
Roofs, streets and open places were
crowded, while many went up Eiffel

They chatted with obvious delight
in each others conversation all
through the dinner and at its con-
Clusion the youthful American flyer
yielded to the princes request to tell
the crowd the detailed story of his
transatlantic flight.
After the dinner was over Lind
