Capt. daring British_ aviator. is risking his life in an attempt to fly the Caribbean circle. Mis- adventures have always ended the at- tempts of others.

Lancaster's accounts of his adventure are being cabled exclusive- 1y to The Star and the North American Newspaper Alilance. William N. Lancaster, BY CAPT. “"ILLIA‘W N. LANCASTER, British Roval Air Force Reserves. By Cable to The Star. SAN JUAN, Porto Rico, March 11.— In my attempt to fly the Caribbean circle I arrived here yesterday, after having spent 35 flying hours in my little 50-gallon land plane. My machine is so tiny in comparison with the big Fokker machines, with which the people in the Caribbean coun- tries are most familiar, that it excites general amusement. ‘The chief trouble I have had so far, however, has been with customs officials At Haiti they delayed me for 24 how but, fortunately, officials of the Pa American Airways came to my rescue and arranged matters so that I was able to proceed on my journey. T expect to take off from here for = | Guadeloupe tomorrow, although the re- ports I receive about landing ground there are unsatisfactory. At any rate, the most perilous part of my attempt to fly the Caribbean circle successfully will begin then. Tiny Plane Used in Flight. Another dangerous aviation feat has begun with the departure of Capt. Wil- N. Lancaster on a pioneering e, | liam % | flight by which he hopes to complete the Caribbean circle, an exploit attempt- ed before by others, but ending always in mishap. Capt. Lancaster is essaying this diffi- cult undertaking alone in a little vest- pocket land plane, an Avro Avian, whose gasoline capacity is only 50 gallons, and which is so small that it can easily be housed in any bungalow garage. ‘Therein lies the chief peril of the flight, for if Capt. Lancaster should miss by ever so slight a margin some of the pin-point islands which have been charted as stopping points on his cruise, down he would come into the Caribbean, out of gasoline and help- lass, save for his liferaft. ‘The 50 gallons of gas will keep Capt. Lancaster’s little plane aloft eight hours, unless weather conditions are adverse. Some of the water jumps to be made are t$ | for distances of 400 to 450 miles. Capt. Lancaster, who, with Mrs. Keith | t Miller, made the famous flight from England to Australia in 1928, also in ce |a tiny Avro Avian, started his present streef e L& Sugner of Tatd Jot 15: thence porther: ;l the easterly line of said lot 15 1 eet to the southerly line of an alley con- 2 s in District” Court adventure from New York Saturday, Mn.rch 2. He flew to Miami by eas tages and through heavy rainstorms, stapplng at Norfolk, Charleston and Jacksonville. He arrived in Miami the ‘Tuesday following his departure from New York, and the next day jumped over to Havana. He flew from there lace | to Camaguey, Cuba, whence he hopped of mv- the -long stretch of blue Carib- é i Iln" 15 | bean to Porto Rico. Many Flights Over Water. From Porto Rico there is an all-water flight of 383 miles to Guadeloupe, which hase | is just a dot in a broad expanse of ocean. It is across. “And if I an island only 28 miles miss it,” laughed Capt. it Lancaster, “X'll get both very hungry o4 |and very w ‘The nexc jump will take the plane - sailing over mm.nlque to Port au Spain, 400 miles 100G Hotel Positions Open!/ Trinidad, across an empty sea; thence 360 miles, mostly over water, to Geurgewwn, British Guiana.

After the war he served in Turkey, Mescpotamia and on the Indian frontier. Late in 1927, then a member of the British Royal Air Force Reserve, to which he is still attached, Capt. Lan- caster got leave for his spectacular 18,000-mile flight to Australia, which he and Mrs. Miller, an Australian, completed in 32 flying days. It was a journey exciting with ad- venture, which included Mrs. Miller’s plucky and winning battle with a ven- omous snake that had crawled into the plane at Rangoon, and a forced land- ing in a jungle in the Dutch East Indies. That cost Mrs. Miller a broken nose. Capt. Lancaster, who was educated at Stafford College, Stafford, England; Ardingly College in Suffolk, and King's College, London, has arranged for sup- plies at 42 points on_the Caribbean circle, though many of these will be only for emergency landings. “It’s the kind of udventure I like,” the captain said. “There’s a thrill to it. That's what a flyer wants.” Besides the life raft and a puuhute Capt. Lancaster is carrying a spare compass, a Very pistol and distress rockets.

Unless you take preventive measures now, the day is coming when you may know, to your sorrow, that the true meaning of the phrase “artificial denture” is often the extravagant price of self-neglect—false teeth. Here’s the reason and the way to help safe-guard health against the coming of this day. Teeth are only as healthy as the gums. And gums, under- nourished and under-exercised, soon surrender to dread diseases that ravage health and often destroy téeth. To prevent this, avail yourself of the best care that modern dentistry offers. Place yourself in the hands of your dentist at least twice a year. And brush your gums when you brush your teeth, every morning and night. But for this purpose—use Forhan’s for the Gums . . . the dentifrice designed to help firm gums and keep them sound, thus protecting them from the attack of disease. Use Forhan’s regularly. You'll be delighted with the way it makes your gums look and feel. In addition, you'll notice that it effectively and safely cleans teeth and halpu to protect them from decay.
