They were doomed to disappointment however as far us A close-up view of the airliner was concerned, as It passed over Oshawa and Whithy about four o'clock or before most of the resi: dents of either place wera out of bed, . Soveral Toronto hroadoasting sta. tions were on the air giving reports on the progress of the dirigible and told that the liner was over that elty, As soon as the announcement was made that the return journey to Montreal had heen started, many eitigens of Whitby went out of doors to try and get a view of the visitor, i The news spread that the R100 wan coming Rast along the lake front and some fifty cars went to the harbour, The R-100 however proceeded eastward on a course that carrid her almost in the mid. dle of the lake, With the help of field glasses she could be discerns od against the clouds in the south. ern sky, as a dark shadow hardly discernable from the cloud formas tions, with the sun glinting at times on the allver envelope, The people of Whithy were greats ly disappointed that the divigible did not pass over the town on her way to Montreal but the consolas tion is held out that in the near future the R-100 or other craft of the same sige will become regular alr visitors in this vicinity, The interest that the trip to On. tarlo evoked in the people of this distriot can be judged in the fact that several automobile loads of people came from as far north ad Sunderland and Cannington to get a first hand view of the R-100, MUSIO IN THE MAKING A schoolmanter caught a small hoy seribbling on a slip of paper, It contained the words: "Blow, blow, draw, blow, draw, blow, blow.'
