Of balAace. The manner in which bird
kept i's balance whilst it, wings were
being cnergeticslly worked alternately
above and belox it, centre oi gravity
was marvellous. Mr.. Brearey thought
that with the example of the bicycle, The
question of balance would not present
much difficulty.
He then touched on the application of
steam to the navigation of the air. Until
lately it had been thought that this was
inadmissible as a motive power, because
of the cumbrous method of its gener-
alton, but it had been declared that when
steam could be applied with weight not
exceeding twenty pounds per horse-pow-
er, the problem would soon be solved.
This had been accomplished, and they
would hope the prognostication might be
true. Man might not be able to reach
the mechanism of bird, but they might
all reach the problem in another way.
Many were now working at the problem
in secret-in secret, partly from fear of
ridicule, and partly from want Of protec.
ton by patent.
The attitude of the Aeronautical So
ciety towards inventors was explained,
and the lecturer concluded by asking
whether he had not shown just cause for
further research into this most interesting
subject.
The lecture had considerable interest
added toit by various demonstrations Civ
en- by Mr.. Brearey, illustrating different
modes Of flight, including fight by projec-
ton, gravity, force, surface and weight, and
propulsion by plane surface. His mod

Of the audience in manner quite natu-
raj. The birds, too, rose and fell in
graceful motion, as they traversed the air
from the platform to the other end of the
room, or. swerving to the right or left,
bodied their beaks upon the side walls.
One large model of an albatross, with a
spread Of wing reaching 1s1a feet (thc
average size of the living Bird, came to
grief upon gas pendant, just as it was
bending its flight into the regions of the
upper air. Huge butterflies were also
sent flying about the ROOM Port and
