ed into one under the name OF the
Young Peoples Union OF Zion From
that day, with a membership of only
seventy-five, the society has progressed
Sc rapidly that today with its 200 mem
bers it bids fair TO be one of the most
important ones of its kind in the coun-
try. 1t is at present affiliated with the

is possible. but that the balloon part
Of it is not the essential one. Aerial

Started With Kites.

DR.. Bell started his experiments with
kites. the box kites invented by Har
grave, OF Australia. now on sale in
any toy store. The box formation was
not however, suitable. and he aban-
doned il and adopted the triangular
formation and from that passed TO the
tetrahedraI formation. His idea was
to secure a form OF kite which would
be capable OF lifting q weight equiva-
lent to a man and a small engine
which would combine lightness and
strength and would fly steadily IN q
strons breeze
Each tetrahedral kite. or hollow OBJ
jeet, having four triangular sides thus
constructed. constituted a cell unit, &C
coraing to DIR. Bells plans. and from
such units he built one large kite.
From 100 cells DR.. Bell two years ago
constructed a flying craft twenty rect
long and ten feet Ifsh, which had SUI
Aeient strength to lift workman forty
feet in the air when he caught hold OF
the rope and ran short distance
with It.
last year DR.. Bell had 10000 tetra-
bedral cells sent to his Nova Scotia
summer home, with which TO continue
his experiments on a larger scale,
