First Flyer to Cross the Atlantic Solo From
East to West.
NEW YORK, August 20 CN.ANA).-
While the last leg of my round-trip
flight from England to America will be
somewhat more than coasting. my mind
is a great deal easier today than it was
when I left Dublin.
Here, Just before taking off, cannot
conceive of anything but engine failure
causing me to come down before the
successful completion of my flight. The
overhauling of Hearts Content in the
last three days has been so capable
regard such trouble as a remote posi-
bility. I'm hardly taking it into con-
sideration.
My little machine has more than
come up to expectations. 1t hurdled
the most difficult barrier in the way of
my flight, the east-west crossing, and
it would be trifie ridiculous if it came
a crcpper On a minor ore.
$500 Miles to Cover.
The total distance have to cover is
5000 miles. I am planning stops az
st. John and Harbor Grace because !
want to be in the best possible physical
condition for the actual crossing of the
Atlantic
My experience on the outward journey
was that the mental strain of flying
over water at night and thus having to
steer course by dead reckoning was
rather more severe than I had antici-
pated. One wave looks just like an
other, and without the guide of land
marks the task of navigation demands
inceSsant attention. 1t is impossible to
relax for moment.
My return flight may take three days.
I shall probably spend the night at st.
John. New Brunswick, and l may rest
for "a hours or more at Harbor Grace
if I am fatigued or if there is any doubt
about the weather conditions. I don't
believe, however, there will be any eX-
tended delay at Newfoundland. 1t is
unusual for weather conditions adverse
to a west-to-eaSt flight to obtain for
long.
About 1000 miles of my flight will
take place over friendly Canadian and
American soil. The last $500 miles
from Harbor Grace TO Croydon Airport,
outside London-includes the water
jump.

Wee seekit, cowrin, tim rous beastie,
Oh, what panic's in they breastle!
That wee bit heap O. leaves an stubble
Hath cost thee mony weary nibblel'
Robert Burns.
T~HIS story is not ABOUT the three
blind mice that took after the
farmers wife" but the one
L whose family costs us several
millions yearly, by destroying
food materials of man and beast. It's
the one that gets into your waste paper
basket late at night and makes you
think there are "spooks" about; the
little gray creature that runs so fast
you are sure it is a dancing shadow.
The only reason that mice have not
taken possession of the earth is that
the owls, hawks, snakes and the hair
trigger trap have kept them down.
The "wee beastie" has the most
amazing appetite. Any food eaten by
man or his cattle is relished by the
whole mouse tribe. Then, too, she uses
your best clothes II she wants to and
fashions a bassinet for her babies.
Minnie Mouse has very large, trum-
pet-like ears, which she moves about
to catch every sound. Her eyes are
very bright and shiny; her nose is for
ever shifting to get the scent Of some
choice tidbit; the whiskers act as
guiders and are most important in her
exploring expeditions. At the front Of
each jaw are two long, curving teeth,
used for gnawing and cutting through
nuts and walls. There is bare space,
and above and below on each side Of
the jaw are four grinding teeth. The
woodch.uck and the squirrel have the
same type of mouth, as they are all
rodents.
Now Minnie Mouse has most EN-
cient tail, with ridges on it and few
hairs. This helpful member enables
her to hold on to objects when she is
climbing and balances her when she is
standing on her hind legs inspecting
the lay of the land. She folds her
front legs under her chin and stretches
her body up to get good view. Her
hind legs are longer and stronger than
the front ones. Her feet are hairless
but downy, and the toes are finished
with sharp claws, enabling her to cling
to any object except glass or metal.
The family members are great f.ands
for tidying up. They make ceremony

Making and Marketing Wares
BY LYDIA LIE BARON WALKER.

more keenly into matters than In the
mere sizing up of her work, for 1t is
only with the open mind that she can
realize money values. This requires
most careful judgment. 1t is disastrous
to put too high a valuation on ones
work, but 1t is mistake also to un-
dervalue it The latter indicates lack
Of knowledge of prices just as much as
does the former. Although this does
not repel purchasers, 1t raises the ques-
tion of whether the work Is up to
standard.
1t is true that to introduce wares a
lower price is often resorted to as
temporary expedient. Business houses
frequently follow this plan, but with the
understanding that there is time limit
for the reduced rates. The lessened
profit is set down to advertising.
You will remember that this point OF
getting ones wares before the public
without spending money was considered
in the barriers to home marketing OF
women's work. The use of Introductory
prices is one method of overcoming such
an obstacle. The woman who uses 1t
must be well acquainted with regula-
ton prices asked for things Of similar
kind already on the market, else she
cannot stress differences in prices to
the advantage of her own wares.

Minnie Mouse seeks seclusion for her

she has been known to select a bureau

several days the babies are blind and

children about, If she has been dis
covered but not removed. They cling
to her breast, and, If old enough, clutch
her fur with their tiny front feet.
They must have water and soon
perish If they cannot get 1t. Their

program, involving construction OF l2o
vessels at a cost Of s616, 100000.
Representing district that is en-
tireIy inland, Vinson has long interested
himself in Uncle Sans Navy. Years
of study have brought him to the belief
that: 1--WE need Navy that is strong
enough to defend our possessions and
support our policies; to insure the safety
of our country and the development OF
our commerce"
The fact that he wrote his bill call
ing for a huge sum of money at the
time when economy is being preached
so much did not disturb him. He had
no excuses.
"a country doesn't need a navy OF
one strength when she is prosperous and
a navy of another size when there is an
economic depression" he says simply.
Vinson is almost bald, inclined tc
portliness and has an accent that would
Immediately identify him as coming
from South Georgia. He has the repu-
tation of being quick thinker.
Many say that he thinks faster than
he speaks. This seems borne out some
times on the floor when he is going
strong in debate. Instinctively he seems
to sense what his opponent is trying to
do way in advance. He attempts to
beat him to the point but Is not always
successful.
