AWKS SETS PLANE DOWN IN ENGLAND ARTER RECORD HOP American Takes Only 59 Min- utes to Fly From Paris to British Destination UTS LONDON-ROME MARK ‘ankee Pilot Says ‘Those Alps Make Our Rockies Look Like Little Bumps’ ‘Heston, Eng., April 23—(#)—Cap- tain Frank Hawks, with two new speed records to his credit, climbed out of his red monoplane here Thurs- day afternoon just 59 minutes after he had left Le Bourget airport, out- side Paris. He had covered the distance 37 minutes faster than any other man * had ever flown it. Commander Glenn | Kidston’s record of 96 minutes from Le Bourget to Croydon was just an- other mark the Texan had knocked over, In two days he has halved two im- portant flying records, cutting the time to Rome to five hours and 20 minutes, and leaving European avia- tors in a daze over his mark for the channel crossing. “Boy,” he said with a wide grin aft- er he had shaken hands all around, “those Alps make our Rocky Moun- tains look like little bumps We pulled through all right, but I still don’t know how.” ‘We were talking about Wednesday's flight to Rome, during which he had to climb 23,000 feet without an oxygen tank. “T pulled up to 21,000,” he said. “and I knew I had to go higher. With every foot I got dizzier and I couldn’t move in the cockpit for fear of pass- ing-out. “Down below all I could see through the fog was snow on the top of moun- tains and crags. Over my head was nothing but thin air—mighty thin. “I don’t know how I made it but I got over and headed for Rome in a driving rain. To dodge the storm I hit for the Italian coast.” The small crowd which stood around listening to him bubbled with laughter when he began to tell about the return trip. “I got off all right at Rome,” he said, “and along about Pisa something went hayware in the fuel line. I came down to fix it. “I don’t speak Italian and at the Pisa Field there was nobody who could speak English. I tried to make them understand that I was all right, but they wanted 54 lire for a landing fee. “I didn’t have any lire and they didn’t have any change for your Eng- re pound sterling. We had « lot of fun.” ‘When the captain started ou; Wed- nesday his idea was to have lunch in Rome and come back here for dinner ‘Wednesday night with the Aero club, a Sey | Adams En | | ! fee ——__a__———— | Naturally, matters nautical would claim first attention with a son of the Secretary of the Navy.

If the photo men can chop the average down to five years, the port- rait business in the United States will gain one hundred million dollars a year, said D, V. Chapman, Detroit, secretary of the Photographers’ Inter- national association of America, in Fargo Wednesday for the sixth an- nual convention of the North Dakota Photographers’ association. As it is, portrait business amounts to more than two hundred million dollars yearly, said Chapman. More than that, the business weathered the 1930 depression in good shape. While industry in general went down 28 plus per cent, the photo business slumped only 15 per cent in the same period under the same conditions. Chapman was the principal speak- er at the convention banquet Wed- nesday night. The convention closes Friday. McCLUSKY POLL COSTLY McClusky, N. D., April 23—The McClusky city election of 1931 was an expensive affair when figured ac- cording to the number of voted cast.

Theo- dore Wentz received nine votes in the first ward, Ales Nuernberg three in the second and Nic Schroeder 13 in the third.

It isn’t always easy to find just where the trouble is with a young child. It may be a stomach upset; it may be sluggish bowels. But when little tongues are coated and there is even a slight suspicion of bad breath—it’s time for Castoria! Castoria, you know, is a pure vegetable ration especially made for babies and children. When Baby cries with colic or is fretful because of constipation, Castoria brings quick comfort, and, with relief from pain, soothes him to restful sleep. For older children— ee all the school years, toria is equally effective in helping to right irregularities. Just give it in larger doses. What a 27th 100 Third Street NOTICE!
