beardmore took oft from lympne airdrome and landed perfectly at stlnglevert airdrome near calais his glider was fitted with a detach able undercarriage and wa3 towed by a light airplane to which it was attached with s00 feet of cable the plane rose to a height of 12000 feet and then the glider was released the powerless piano made 00 miles an hour across tho channel flyiug smoothly all the way the flight was made on the eve of a 5000 competition for the first glider to cross the channel and back in one day which had been organized by a london newspaper beardmore said on arrival that he had heard the austrian gliding ex pert icroufeld was planning to at tempt to capture the first prize in the contest and that he himself had made the flight because ho wanted the first crosschannel glider to be a british subject he was not com peting for any prizes he said the glider the canadian used was designed and constructed by him ho was also tho inventor o the me chanical contrivances for towing tho glider behind the plane the tow ing cable contained a telephone wire to enable him to communicate with the pilot of the plane while a special trigger device was fitted to enable the glider to be released there was nothing in the flight ho said except for the intense cold i have never been so cold in my life even in canada the flight was regarded as one of the most daring since the channel was first crossed by air the towing of gliders by airplanes is uot new it was tried success fully by capt frank hawks in the united states some time ago but this is the first time in history an airplane

improve upon too tho patrol box should not be a youth ot the world and becomo so weighty or unwieldy affair but should contain just those little necessities which are apt to stray at the most im- truly international for canada it is peculiarly fitted as tho campcraft which it teaches is so well suited to our geographical conditions nothing could bo better than its gospel of self- reliance selfrespect unselfishness and the pledge to help others whatever it may cost moreover it appeals to tho boy as he gets a lot ot fun out ot this process of developing the spirit of true sportsmanship the qualities inculcated aro the qualities of the good citizen and one is uot surprised that anothor namo for a good citizen is a good scout spaco will not permit us this week to continuo our camp
