1t vas not until 2;2s. when the
magnificent blue greens OF the shoal-
ing Waters heralded the appearance
of Bermuda on the horizon ahead
that number of the passengers
reused from after-luncheon maps.
There were busy and exciting mo-
ments as the ship slid down the length
OF the Bermudas in an easy glide. Its
sharp hull knitted into the waters of
the !bay at 2:40 pm, just five hours
and\2l minutes out OF Long Island
Sound
A trim launch, manned by per-
sonnel OF Imperial Always. assisted
in nooring the ship and carried pas
sengers and luggage ashore, where
other boats were waiting for the trip
across the bay. The British terminal
is on Darrell Island. in the harbor,
where a huge hangar has been con-
structed and other facilities are be-
ing installed
The return trip started at $50
O'Clock the following morning, and,
after an uneventful passage of S
hours and 40 minutes, Capt. Sullivan
brought the big boat down to a vel
uet-smooth landing at Port Wash
tngton. The accuracy of the naviea-
yion was demonstrated when the Jones
tBeach tower appeared about half
F6mile to starboard on the way in. the
tship making its landfall so far as
fthe passengers could see, at exactly
the point it had left the coast the
day before. Total distance for the
round trip was 1916 miles, total
flying. II hours 2 minutes.

and it was not until l045 that the
first blue sky of the day was seen
A few moments later the purser
came through the cabin with word
that the British Imperial Airways
ship. Cavalier, which is alternating
with the clipper on the Bermuda run,
had taken off from Bermuda and was
flying toward us at 5000 feet altitude
under the cloud level. We were by
this time at 5000 feet and working
well above solid banks of clouds.
An hour later, while Capt. Sullivan
and three of his officers were having
their luncheon in the after compart-
ment, patches Of open sea became
visible through the nov thinning
clouds. In one opening patches of
brown seaweed could be seen in the
deep blue water a mile and a half
below. The sun on the clouds was
dazzling and dark glasses appeared
THE navigation officer was receiving

conform to the latest wind reports.
Close contact was maintained with the
Cavalier and, although it was known
when the two ships passed, neither
was able to see the other because of
scattered clouds and the 5,000-foot diff
ference in their attitudes.
The officers completed a leisurely
luncheon and returned to their posts,
the passengers began a luncheon even
more leisurely, which dragged out an
courses.

For the Atlantic service, however
larger flying boats will be required
than even the Bermuda Clipper, with
its capacity for % passengers and a
regular crew OF seven, in addition
to mail and cargo.
In anticipation of this need PAN
American has placed orders for six
pound super clippers" which
are to carry 10 passengers each.
These giants. now being constructed at
the Boeing plant in Seattle, are to be
known as the B-3l4 type They will
be equipped with Al berths for use
as night transports.
The first of these SUPER clippers
each powered with four 1,500-horse-
power engines, is expected to be de-
livered during the coming year. They
will be by far the largest transport
airplanes in service anywhere in the
world
Construction also has been COM
menced on a new type 32-passeneer.
4-englne land transport equipped
with a pressure cabin for passengers
and flight crew, designed for opera

itself to lose the leadership in mer-
chant marine activities. the remark

given this country a substantial
leadership which promises to grow in

make your trip around the town of
more interest: 1t was first settled by
Peter Stevens and was known to the
hillsmen as The Hole" In 1747
Robert Harper, for whom the town
was named, an architect. born at
oxford, England, in 1903, visited THE
Hole on his way to Winchester, Va,
where he had contracted to erect some
buildings He became so infatuated
with thr scenery that he purchased a
squattT's claim, settled there and ran
a ferry from shore to shore of the
Potomac. The exact spot where the
ferry lhnded is close by the bridge

you visit this place, by all means try
to locate the genial Mr.. Macdonald,
white professor. He is a noted
authority on the history of the town.
He'll tell you about Bolivar Heights,
where Gen. Miles surrendered in 1862.
Be sure to visit Hilltop House for
lovely scenic views; also John Browns
Fort, at the edge Of Storer's College.
If you don't like the idea of taking
the return trip to Washington ac-
cording to the route suggested earlier,
here's another one that offers variety:
First. take route - out of Harpers
Ferry, follow this until you reach
Millwood. pleasant hamlet just the
other side Of the Shenandoah River.
Then take route so all the way back
to Washington. You pass through
the finest racehorse breeding section
of the Midsouth, including Middle

sometimes large ones, in it's immediate
vicinity. So potent is the charge that
on one occasion man was knocked
eight feet after touching the animals.
When the present eel was secured
for the Washington Zoo, it came in
company with another that has since
died. in a large barrel filled with soft
mud. In transferring the eels to two
large tin washtubs, one Of them es-
capped over the side. When the keeper,
unacquainted with its deadly electric
power, sought to replace it in the
tub. the shock he received sent him
f1oundering against the wall.
In fact, in New York City, in the
aquarium there, smaller specimen
has been known to generate enough
electricity in one attack to light a
two-watt bulb. Just how powerful
this charge is can be realized from
the fact that it takes IS volts to light
such a bulb. This constitutes a
power as great as that which lights
an average-size f1ashlight.
In that aquarium they rigged up
the electric bulb over the cells tank,
attached to wire which hangs down
into the tank. Prodding the eel with
rubber tipped stick to arouse him
into action, they discovered that the
resultant electricity discharged light
ed the bulb like flashing beacon.
1T WAS this same eel which put on
one of the most startling exhibitions
ever witnessed by this writer in New
York. Incredible as it seems and

Many Of the old houses in the town
we're built way back in the seventeen
hundreds. To the left of the main
highway, only a stones throw from
the bridge, are the historic stone
steps At the top of them you may see
the oldest house in town, built about
1870 by Robert Harper.
To the left of this ancient resi-
dence is an abandoned ice house and
unique type Of bridge. About 20
feet high, it reaches from the porch
OF the house to the other side Of the

Harper used it as a passageWay to
