AIRSHIP TO U. S.
Man Who Flew R-34, Likely
to Command R-38 on
Ocean Trip
London, Nov, 24. The R-38,
Great Britain's largest airship, re
cently sold to the United States, Is
capable of traveling 34 hours longer
•without refueling than the largest
German airship constructed before
the armistice. She also embodies
another achievement In the aerial
constructors' art. With her enor
mous capacity of 2,720,00X1 cubic
feet, a third larger than that of the
R-34 of trans-Atlantic fame, the
R-38 has a "llftiog" power of 60 tons
of cargo. This Is 60 per cent of her
total "lifting' power, 82 tons. The
airship's weight, 32 tons, is reckoned
as "dead Uftage."
The sale la attributable to demands
for economy that have been made
on the Rrlush air ministry, t on
struction of tho R-38 ww iepun Ins
year nt Incl'lnnan, on the tjyde,
where the R-34 was built. Her
cruising endurance will be 45 miles
per hour for nearly nine days, in
length she is 696 feet, 26 feet lon
ger than the R-34, and her girth
is 87 feet six Inches. The airship
is equipped with four 360-horse
power Sunbeam Cossak engines and
two 276-horsepower Sunbeam Maori
engines. Altogether she will de
velop a horsepower of nearly 2,000.
Her speed will be 70 miles per hour.
It is rumored In English aeronauti
cal circles that she will be com
pleted in a few months, by Major
Scott, who flew the R-34 to America
and back.

The Advantage of Early
| Shopping
Thoughtful buyers will shop early this season; and,
better by far, early in the day.
Early in the season, because an old-fashioned Christ
mas, >vith generous buying, promises an onslaught on
limited supplies.
Early in the day, because customers and salespeople
then are refreshed ; judgment is surer ; fatigue is far away.
Human effort bends tinder the strain of shoppers in
mass.
Avoid congestion; try to make way for those who are
not privileged to do their shopping early.
