I'm glad that's behind me. Since
o'clock last night there were low
hanging clouds and it was hazy all
the way in."
Some of the flyers slept an hour or
two during the long trip. All of
them had eaten from the large food
supply which had been stored
aboard their crafts. Perry, the hero
of the missing ship episode" re-
vealed that he had taken time to
shave on the way.
With characteristic navy efficen-
cy, each man had made his part of
the plane ship-shape before turning
the boats over to mechanics. Each
had donned a clean coat before
coming ashore to receive the hon.
ors heaped upon them.
Hawaiian residents found double

squadron, which McGinnis had led
from Norfolk, Va, on circuitous
route to the Canal zone, thence up
the Mexican coast to San Diego and
finally to San Francisco for the
take off to the permanent base.

In spanning the ocean in the "a

bettered the record set by Ernest
Smith, civilian, in 1927. Smith cross

little short of his goal in 1925 and
was picked up 10 days later after he

army went the honor of the first
successful crossing when Its. Lester
Maitland and Albert Hagenberger
steered a Fokker transport plane
across in rs hours, SO minutes.

That same year, 1927, the Dole
flight for cash prizes was held.
Three of the five planes entered fell
into the sea, bringing death to their
seven occupants. Two succeeded in
reaching the islands. In 1927 the
Southern Cross" heavy seaplane
bound for Australia, made the last
previous flight. There has never
been a west-east crossing.

navy, in which John Paul Jones
and Bluff John Barry made the
first notationS, was written today
the record shattering flight of six
giant navy seaplanes from the
mainland at San Francisco to their
permanent base at Pearl Harbor,
Honolulu.
Travelling at a speed the navy s

triumphed over murky skies and

reports of the latitude and the

But his messages failed to reveal
the drama of the flight. They did

no mention of the seven hours of

storm was brewing west of Hawaii

path.
A roaring welcome greeted the
six planes as they scared out Of the
east in graceful formation and
skinned to stop in the calm wa

Honolulu time (2:59 p. m. PST)
Tugs and steamers shrieked blasts
from their whistles to add to the
deafening ovation. The tired airmen

For Hard Coughs or

Creomulsion is made to give su-

combines 7 helps in one-the best
helps known to science. It is for
quick relief, for safety.
But careful people, more and
more, use it for every cough that
starts. No one knows where
cough may lead. No one can tell
which factor will do most. That
depends on tie type of cold.
Creomulsion costs a little more
than lesser helps. But it means
the utmost help. And it costs you
nothing if it fails to bring the
quick relief you seek. Your drug
gist guarantees it. Use it for safe
