Old Stage Coach Still
Running From Picadilly
LONDON ( AP ) An old time
stage coach, the "Old Berkeley,"
which set: out from Piccadilly on
a daily trip to Hox Hill, a Surrey
beauty spot, is a source of great
interest to overseas visitors to
London, who see in it a picture of
England as it waa before the daya
of railways.
The coach is operated by two
London home-lovers aa a hobby.
Passengers book and pay for seats,
but if the coa h were filled every
day the sum received would not
pay for the horses' forage and
shoeing.
"Finding Gas With Match"
Still Prevailing Practice
Despite warnings to the con
trary, some motorists continue to
light matches to ascertain how
much gasoline remains in the
tanks of their automobiles, points
out the National Safety Council,
which continues to record deaths
due to this practice. One of the
latent victims not onlyjauseiLJis

Foundation for Epochal Air
Voyage Laid as Mail Car
rier In 1914 .v
Clarence D. Chanvberlin", '.the
aviator whoe name is on the lips
of the entire civilized world be
cause of his daring in flying the
Atlantic, laid the foundation for
his epochal feat way back in 1014-1"-1C
when he experimented with
and methodically studied th? air
cooled type motor in his motor
cycle sale. and repair shop at
Deni-?on, Iowa.
It was while working for Uncle
Sam as a mail carrier Chamberlin
purchased his first motorcycle.
This led to moire active interest in
that type of transportation and he,
subsequently, started a sales and
repair station for the Harley
Davidson Motorcycle.
Becoming an enthusiastic mo
torcyclist, it was not long lefore
he had established a very prosper
ous business and became one of
the midwest's .most important
motorcycle dealers.
In 1917 the desire to roam a bit
took possession of him and that
year found Chamberlin piloting
his motorcycle on an extensive
trip to California. While there,
he answered the nation's call to
arms and joined the army balloon
corps his first experience in the
air.
From that moment Chamberlin
wras destined to become famous,
for it was not long before he
graduated from the balloon corps
and entered the field of flying.
His progress was rapid and he
soon became known aa a depend
able flier. Since the world war,
Chamberlin h;s been engaged in
commercial aviation.
