SATURDAY, JULY 7, 1928. a8 many accidents from the use of fireworks and firearms were known to be caused a week or more be- fore the holiday as were reported on July 4 itself this year. Hardly a holiday passed in those days with- cut several serious accidents, and on many verandas last Wednesday night sat parents bearing the scars of their childhood celebrations, and watch- ing their children enjoy themselves to the fullest extent, but with safety. For night celebrations, the roman candle, sky rocket, flower pot, water- fall, pin wheel and numerous other standard pieces which have sur- vived the improvements and replace- ments of modern invention, were generally used, but throughout the evening the pistols blazed away and the glant crackers blew holes in old boilers and cans, while the aged and the nervous held their ears and hoped and prayed for the cessation that generally came some time after midnight on the morning of July 5. | Whether the present day manner of | = 5 taking up the question of the merits or demerits of the leeway accorded Young America in those days, the New Britain men and women who were the boys and girls of that period eertainly conld not have even ANAIT OCEAN Hop dreamed that they would live to see | Expect ldzikowsh and K“bala the day when pretty sparklers would replace noisy bombs, and the powder loaded canes would be un- known to the youthful celebrators, | Fireworks On Sale For Weeks Fireworks and firearms were on sale in that period for several weeks prior to July 4 was on the alert for any opportunity te earn a few extra dimes that the might stock up for the great day N lly, they did not wait for the ¢ itself, but for a week or ten in advance of the holiday the g of cannon crackers and the !sharp staccato of the blank cart- | ridge pistols resounded through the streets and hack yards of the city. Revolvers and rifies, smuggled out of cellars and attics, were brought into use, sometimes with unfortu- ate results. Powder pellets were banged on sidewalks with heavy stones and their biting bits scattered for yards on all sides, burning bare cgs and raising blisters to the ac- companiment of the shricks of the injured, who, however, would stand out in great pain rather than admit | the premature celebration had proved detrimental to their enjoy- ment. Out Al the “Night Before” Great plans were laid for “stay ing out” the night before the holi- 3 Gangs in all sections of the city met day after day and night atter night to make all arrange- nients, some determining to demand concerts the permission of their elders while | others were equally resolved to run no risk of failing to cbtain their arents’ approval and so they would simply disappear after the evening meal and fall in with their chums as soon as darkness came. Usually, tents of erude wooden construction or canvas were erected in strategic locations, the strategy consisting of the selection of places which were most likely to be shielded from the searching eyes of fathers and moth- ers. Into these shelters the gangs crowded, whispering one to the other ostensibly for the purpose of perfeeting some detail of the night's doings but actually because of the fear of being alone that comes to youngsters when shadows fall. Early in the morning—as soon (fter the midnight hour as possible the scurrying footsteps gave warning of the advance of the clans, “ | from then until every cortridge and xhausted the with every fire cracker had been racket went on, louder the least falling off in enthusiasm of the boys behind the fireworks. Powder burned deeply into fingers and toss; eyelashes were singed and tonghened skin seared, while hare and there, every year without 1ail, serious Injuries were done and familics were saddened at sight of the maimed limbs that told the tale of the carelessness of youth and the toll it takes.

So at least the Poles of America and no doubt Poland wish and expect. The two Polish aviators, Major ldzikow- ski and Captain Kubala, have been making secrct preparations at Le Bourget field near Paris for the past two months, awaiting | Their plans are kept secret and al- though the world expects them to make a Paris-New York attempt via. the Azores, it has been intimated that they might attempt a non-stop flight from Paris to Chicago. Such a tlight is possible as the distance be- tween Paris and Chicago is about 4,500 miles, while the machine in which the fliers intend to mak trip carries enough gas for a mile trip. Should the aviators de- cido to land at Mitchel field, the hon- ors would still remain theirs for be- ing the first to cross the Atlantic from the mainland to America. Poles Prepare Receptions The Poles in America fecl that their compatriots are capable of at- taining this distinguished feat and already committees have been form- ed in New York, Chicago and other cities where Polish population is large to receive the aviators royally. That the aviators do not trust to luck is borne out by the fact that they are taking every precaution in | tuning up their Amiot machine with [ its 650 horsepower Lorraine motor and no one is allowed to come near the plane which s guarded day and night by French soldiers. The ex- | perience of other ill-fated expedi- tions has taught them to be careful |in the minutest details connected { with their attempted flight. Flew From Warsaw to Tokio ldzikowski and Kubala are not newcomers in the large field of long- distance fiiers, both having gained gistinction and world-wide recogni- tion for the Warsaw-Tokio flight n 1925, when they made what was then considered one of the longest and | flights in history and for which they were rewarded both by the Polish and the Japanese governments. Ku- Lala at the time was a sergeant- program is divided into 11 perieds, passing hour and certainly withont | mechanic and besides receiving sev eral medals for the feat was award- ed the commission of captain, while 1dzikowski, who was then a lleute ant, was made major. | behind them a long { lent flights In Kurope and a fine mil- | itary record, both being in the serv- ice since Poland’s re-birth ten years ago. The accomplishment, if ever | realized, and in which the whole | world wishes them success, would | put Poland on the map as one of the | ieading countries where commercial aviation has proved a success. Com- mercial aviation has been in force in Poland since 1923 and air lines exist Letween Warsaw-Cracow, Warsaw- | Lemberg, Warsaw-Posen, Warsaw- | Vienna, Warsaw-Moscow and War- saw-Berlin, The enterprise is a tre- mendous success and the lines are busy day and night passengers and mail. Aviation schools are numerous and the planes and ficlds are kept in first-class con- dition by the gévernment, which well understands the importance of air- way travel in the future. Kowalczyk Plans Longer Flight The Idzikowski-Kubala flight is not the only attempt of the Poles to write their names in the history of ation {a non-stop. long-distance hop 1s Cap tain Kowalczyk of Posen, who i awaiting his plane, which will be bought Ly the Poles of America. | Captain Kowalezyvk intends to make | a flight from cither Posen or War- a distance of ap- proximately ) miles.
