The German steamer Samos which took them from their smashed plane, the Marszalek Pilsudski, also brought the sesqui plane into port. One of the two aviators injured his arm in a fall aboard the steamship so seriously that he was sent to the military hospital at Oporto when the ship docked this morning. It was said later, however, that both airmen ex- pected to be able to leave tomorrow for Paris, which was their starting point, The aviators had been in the air since 4.46 a.m. Greenwich mean time, Friday and in 35 hours of flying had made a great circle out over the At- lantic . toward the Azores, during which they had been sighted by two steamships. It was radio reports from these vessels which first gave the world intimation that the Poles had abandoned their attempt to span the Atlantic and were headed back to- ward Europe, Plunged Into Sea They had reached a point only 60 miles off Cape Finisterre when trou- ble with their gasoline feed pipe forced an abrupt descent into the sca. The big plane struck the waves with such force that the wings were smashed. The crew of the Samos with difficulty extricated the aviators and turned their vessel for the near- est port, For the second time in a week trou- ble with the fuel supply system had forced a plane into the sea while on an attempt to make the westward crossing which has only once been accomplished in a plane. For the second time, too, in so brief a space, aviators have been plucked by steam- ships from the waters in which so many of their daring predecessors had met death, On Wednesday Captain Frank T. Courtney with three companions had set out in a flying boat from the Azores to fly to Newfoundland, Half- way across a broken gas line had sprayed fuel against the hot motors so that the plane caught fire and forced a rapid descent. The flyin, boat made a safe landing and floate: ten hours until a steamship reached the spot. That plane was abandoned. Majors Idzikowski and Kubala hopped off from Le Bourget, the French aviation metropolis near Paris, at 549 am., French time, Fri- day in the sesqui-plane "The Marshal Pilsudski," with the intention of mak- ing a non-stop flight to New York. It was their intention to pursue the southern route via the Azores, thence to Halifax and on to their destina- tion, The next word of their progress came from a French trawler miles off the coast of France and some 350 miles from their starting point, which reported the big cream- colored plane passed overhead flying very low--about 600 feet--indicating, it was said in aviation circles, that weather conditions at sea were un- favorable. RECORD FOR ENTRY OF TOURISTS INTO CANADA BROKEN Windsor, Aug. 6.--All records for the entry of tourists frome the United States at this port are being broken at present, auto club offic- jals estimating that more than 4,- 000 sixty-day permits were issued during the past three days at Wind- sor and Walkerville ferry docks. Saturday, auto club officials say, was the busiest day in their his- tory, more than 2,000 permits be- ing issued to autoists from the oth- er side who will spend from a week to the two months allowed in tae permit in Canada. While no estimate of the num- ber of cars crossing the river into Canada for the week-end only was vailable at Windsor, the auto club officials and Customs and immigra- tion officers united in saying that they mever saw anything like it, which probably means that the pre- vious reeord for cross-river traf- fic, established on July 4, when fully 135,000 people crossed over has ; | when his labor will not fairly pur-|into Cenads, en exceeded 1p {chase itaThomas Re Malthus, 2 > i LODGE SESSION expert, e-- All Lodges in County Rep- resented--Grand Master On- tario West Present The County Orange Lodge of South Ontario in a Hall, Whitby, on Wedn .

Hu the regular business, R. nter dealt with local and eneral matters soncerning the Or- er, and explained some of his plans for the improvement of the Associa- tion. He touched lightly upon the re- cent change of policy respecting the teaching of French in the public schools of Ontario, and doubted that it would result in improving the situ- ation. Mentioning the Judgment of the Privy Council in the iny Tp. case, the Grand Master felt that the licy of sectarian education made No sectionalism and distrust, where- as a common education for those of different faiths, promoted under- standing and harmony, The speaker also fed tribute to the work of the L.O.B.A. and urge all Orangemen to support and en- courage the ladies in their efforts on behalf of home and country, After closing of the Lodge the brethren were treated to a bountiful supper by ladies of Vimy Ridge LO.B.A. who were heartily thanked by the Co. Lodge. The toast to the King was responded to by all present singing the National Anthem. Toasts to the Grand Lodge and to the ladies were replied to by R. W. Bro. Hun- ter and Rev. Bro. D. B.
