GIANT air liners cross the Eng. V lish Channel many times daily. the passengers giving little thought to any possibility of danger. Yet they owe this modern convenience to the courage and ingenuity of a Frenchman. Louis Bleriot. who on July 25. 1909. first dared the 20 mile flight from Calais to Dover in a light. open machine that was a mere kite compared to the gigantic airplanes of today
 For nine years preceding this momentous event. Bleriot had built 10 airplanes in slow. costly and dangerous struggle to master the mysteries of flight In that period. however. he had been first to fly . monoplane. first to put the engine in the nose. first to place rudder. elevators and stabilizer at the tail. and first to use wheels for landing gear
 France commemorated Bleriot's $ cross.channel flight with special airmail stamp. In 1884. on the 18th anniversary of the event.

September Accident
 Total In State Low
Lowest Fatality in Ten Years Recorded-May Show
 Reduced Figure in National Checkup This Year

the call of Governor Cross. Jail sentences inflicted both in the low and higher courts of the state are having a sumpuary effect on traffic in general. A real achievement has been attained and am confident Connecticut is going to continue the improvement noted so that the final quarter of 1885 will be such a safe driving period as to attract national attention"
 September has always been a discouraging month as regards traffic accident experience, but in 1884 it was particularly bad with a total of GA fatalities. As far back as 1924, the records of the motor vehicle department do not show a September record to match the months experience this year, Going back Il years, September is discovered with 22 deaths from traffic accidents, but the registra- ton of motor vehicles for the en- tire year of 1894 was only 224,- I'll, while during the first nine months of this year approximately :6O,00O vehicles were registered. The comparison, therefore, is all in favor of 1885.
 Reductions
 Because of the late receipt of accident reports monthly compari- sons are not always accurate, but Commissioner Connor emprasized that the fatality comparisons are ohoclad corafu1IvS Sdav f0 dav and therefore, are subject to accurate comparison with the departments records of preceding years. It is now possible for Connecticut to be one of the few states in the country to show reduced fatality total for 1885, as well as marked reduction in accidents and inju- ries.

W. I. GRANT TO
 OFFER BARGAINS
Company Observes 29th Anniversary of FOund-
 ing Tomorrow

Beginning Thursday, October 3rd, the local W. T. Grant store will join with 489 other Grant stores in celebrating the 29th an- niversary of the founding of the company.
 The growth of the Grant Com pany has been quite remarkable,
 from one store in 1906 doing a business of $99.000 annually. the company has grown to its present size, doing an annual business of $8O,000,000 in 470 stores.
 The secret of the success of this organization has been in its pol icy of selling good merchandise for cash and in being able to keep prices down because of no expen- sive services.
 The first Grant store was opened in Lynn, Massachusetts in the fall of 1906 by William T. Grant, who had the desire to have a store of his own. Ideas and theories which he had developed while working In other merchandising groups enabled him to make this first store such a success that his friends and packers urged him to open a second store. This was opened in Waterbury, Connecticut. The second store also proved the soundness of MT. Grants princi- pies, and 1t was decided to ex-
 pand into a chain.
 Progress was slow, the company nA nAtnn AnIy xxl&11 4ha =. of existing stores. There was

Elation featured a glowing report made today by CommisSoner Michael A. Connor of the state department of motor vehicles to Governor Wilbur l.. Cross regard ing the remarkable record achieved in Connecticut during September which was set aside as Safety Month" to feature the year round traffic accident prevention program instituted by the commissioner.
 We saved 40 lives during Sep tember of this year as compared with a year ago and registered the lowest September fatality in 10 years," said the commissioner in his report. September, 1884, re- ported GA fatalities cause by traffic accidents actually happening dur ing September while September ot this year has reported 24 deaths from traffic accidents. Differences noted sometimes in monthly com parisons are caused by deaths oc- curing in one month because of accidents charged to the previous month.
 Comparison
 Commissioner Connor pointed out the actual comparison between September of last year and this year, as follows:
 1884 1895
 Accidents ........1509 1915
 Fatalities coco. GA 24
 Injuries ........ 1873 759
 The comparison shows 496 less traffic accidents during September of this year, 40 less fatalities and GA less injuries. Truly" continu- ed the commissioner in his state- ment, September of this year was a safety month, demonstrating how safety conscious the entire state of Conpectucut has become since early in August when our record showed Al more men, wo- men and children killed this year than one year ago the same date.
 Jail Sentences
 Because of the remarkable CO., operation the authorities of the state have received from associat- ed traffic accident prevention particularly the newspa- pers, our record today shows one less traffic accident fatality than a year ago this time. Consider what our traffic accident report for today, Octuber 1st, might have been had we continued the traffic accident experience of early Aug ust when we were recording mul- tiple killings and rolling up a dis graceful record. It is most gratify- ing to find everybody rallying to
