OF course almost.
All this is not mere technical theory.
Time and time again have the courts in

II any great body OF land owners object
TO the use OF airships-and the hostility Of
the railroads and other Transporting COM
panies may be reckoned upon-they can
so effectively confine the Airship's field Of
operation as to render the machine Of no
practical use TO its owner
The only reason why this has not been
the case with balloons IL that the hostility
Of transportation companies has never,
been aroused because. owing to the inabil@
ity Of the balloon rider to direct its course,
they have never been used for Transports

With the airship. however, the case VIII

TO lie supinely on their backs and watch
the heavily laden Aging machines crossing
over their lands with impunity in defiance
OF all rules OF law and justice.
The airship owner viii find himself con-
fronted with two ~alternatives-he will
either have to confns his flying trips to
those regions OF the aerial world under
which the land Is owned by the public or
BY those who do not object to his airy

II should be said at this point that the

WHEN THE TIDE GOES OUT.
BY Frederick Boyd Stevenson.

When the tide goes out and the clouds pass by,
And the boats are beached on the sandy shore,
And the hotsam and jetsam idly lie
Cast up by the waves that are gone before;
When the roar has died from the surging sea,
And soothed in the calm is the breakers shout,
The driftwood remains, like a memory
When the tide goes out.
When the soul goes out and the life is DER,
And the days of our youth are passed away,
And our deeds cast up on the earthly shore
Are dull like the night, or bright as the day
Then the spirit of man, forever free
From the tempests wild in the seas Of doubt,
Leaves evil or good for eternity
When the tide goes out.
