PHILADELPHIA, Feb. 8.—-Regular
daily flying pasenger service back and
ocean will
be an accomplished fact in 1926!
And the trip—each way—will be
made in aboutlao hours! _
This is the belief of Edward ‘8.
Armstrong. a noted engineer. aviator
and inventor of Philadelphia. who
has just completed plans outlining in
detail the establishment of this ex-
traok‘dinary service.
He proposes to construct eight gi-
gantic stations which will he an-
Ichored at intervals of 400 miles across
-'the fitlantic ocean. By methods
which he has perfected it will be
possible to anchor these stations in
fixed places and stabilize them so
that they will be free from the roll
and pitch which even the most mam-
moth occan liners are subjected to.
Each station or "seadrome" will. be
1,200 feet long. 400 feet wide. and
have a platform of 11 1.22 acres on
:which the seaplanes will alight. A
-Crcw of about 125 men will be sta-
tioned on each seadrome. There will
be complete radio-telephone and wire-
less .tolograph receiving and broad:
casting stations, meteorological bu-

BRITAIN AGOG
OVER. ARRIVAL
0F WEE BABE
King and Queen Rejoice
Over Birth of Their
i
First-Grandchild.
‘By Associated Press
LONDON, Fob. 8.—King George
and Queen Mary are grandparents to-
day, and Britain rejoices with them.!
A son was born last evening to Prin-s
ccss Mary, the wife of Viscount La-i
scelles.
The little prince has already made
something of a stir. All the morning
newspapers "made over" to announce-
his arrival in the largest type they
possessed. Pictures of all the family
‘ure printed, together with the minu-
est details of the life history of
the baby’s parents and their parents.
One devotes much space to a geneal-
ogical tree, showing the descent of
the prince on both sides of the family
from King Henry VII.
The king and queen are being
showered with congratualtoins upon
the arrival of their first grandchild,
and as much excitement is being
shown as was caused by Princess
Mary's marriage, a little less than a.
year ago.
Th8‘ newspapers, however, ,know
their public. and it may be said safely
that for one person todayTwho reads
about the Ruhr and the American
debt, one hundred will peruse every
inch of space devoted to the infant.
“There never will be a. royal babe
in whom greater interest will be tak-
en," says.one paper. "Probably this
is not far from the truth. "
Princess Mary’s child will not be
called .‘iroyal highness,” for that title,
bydecree of the icing. islow con-
fined to the children- of a sovereign or
a soyereign' s sons. Only the child-
reu 'and grandchildren of a. British
king may be called “prince" and
"princess."

Campaign Manager Advises
House to
House Canvass
The house- to- house canvass em-
ploy ed by a. majority of Evening Sen-
tinel candidates in their campaign for
subscriptions that will bring big votes
is continuing to meet with success. as
reported by any number of the work-
ers who are taking advantage of this
mcans of getting these subscriptions
at. a. time when the votes are largest.
thus increasing their chances of own-
ing one of the three automobiles given
free on March‘s.
Weekly. more candidates are begin—
ning to realize the importance of u‘
house-to-house canvass as the sure-
fire means of getting results is proof
sufficient that this manner of seeking
subscriptions is. one that produces
greatest results. Securing subscrip-
tions in this campaign is nothing more
than a. test of salesmanship. True.
some of the results obtained are based
on friendship. but sooner or later each
candidate finds there is a lmit to the
number of friends that can be reached
leaving no other course than to solicit
help from other sources.
Here is where the test of salesman-
ship comes in. Those who are in any
degree familiar with selling reasoning
know that the greatest amount of
good is usually obtained from meeting
the largest number of people. The
process of elimination, weeding out
those who cannot be "sold." and con-
centrating every effort on those who
can. will bring subscriptions to you
in this campaign just as surely as it
brings business in any other line of
selling.
Hence the argument in favor of
house-to-house canvassing for sub-
scriptions. In no other—way is it pos-
sible to meet so many people. If you
select any street in any section of the
community. call at each house as you
come to it. omitting none. you have
laid the foundation for the successful
termination of your individual cam-
paign.
prise even the most skeptical.
This bit of advTice may best be ap-1
plied to your efforts of this week. for
at no other time during the remainder
of the campaign will the subscriptions
you turn in amount to so much in
votes as they do from now until 8
o'clock Saturday night. Each sub-
scription brought to the campaign of-
fice during this week moans thousands
of votes more than if turned in during
any week that is to come. There re-
main two fuil days before the vote
value is reduced. By adopting the
slogan “See Everyone." and observing
it faithfully you can add thousands of
votes to your credit
Keep in ,mind that nothing can
change the fact that the big prizes are
to be awarded those having the high-
est number of votes when the 0?:-
paign closes. The candidate turn ng
in the largest number of subscriptions
or the one having, the highest cash
total would not of necessity be the
winner. for if the subscriptions were
turned that: 9. time when the votes
were largest. it could be very possible
that a. candidate with a lesser number
of subscription or a smaller cash total
woul carry away the first award.
An important point is: cash total or
the number of subscriptions will not
be the determining factors. The
vitally important thing is to hold the
highest number of votes. In order to
be among those who do, you must
take advantage of every opportunity
oflered by which you may obtain
them.
At no future time will that oppor-
tunity be as great ‘ as during this
present week. From now until Satur.
day can and should be golden hours
for every contestant. Every subscrip-
tion possible should be garnered: not
a single one overlooked this week.

The wives were becoming acquaint—
