, OF the air. a word with ring OF
triumph in 1t. word to roll proudly
from the tongue.
Attached to each ground where aerial
machines fly there is an open space
upon which their drivers practise be-
fore committing themselves to the air
What is this to be named? So far, at
aeroplane gatherings. II has been called
all manner OF things. Those who use
the term aerial jockey naturally call
1t a paddock" Others, OF a more
precise turn of mind style 1t man

new vocabulary. Certainly, Of those

to connect it specifically with aerial
contests
And then there is the name for the
machines themselves. The simple torn
flying machines confuses aeroplanes
with drigible balloons. The descrip-
tion heavier than-air machine" to
dlfferentiate between an aeroplane and
an apparatus supported in the air by
a gas-bag. is altogether too awkwrd for
everyday use. "Aeroplanc" has no

spect, aircraft" or "aerocraft" is de-
cIdedly better. "Sky-craft" Is frankly
poeticaI The new word that is want
ed must have a ring of poetry in it
and be practically descriptive as well.
In talking of the places where aero
planes lie when they are not in use we
have begun to adopt a French word
hangar. 1t is terribly ugly. Aero
plane garage" is clumsy. Air she'd
suggests nothing in particular. An en-
deavor to merge the words "air" and
garage" has produced a monstrosity
-'airase." Shed" by itself. Is dis
tinctly derogatory. 'Aero-dock," a
much more reasonable word. Is usually
associated with dirlgiblc balloons. and
not aeroplanes. Here. too, a new
word will be wanted before country
sportsmen begin to have a shelter for
their aeroplanes next door to the gar
ages of their motorcars. > -
The new sport is not coming; II Is
here. Trailing in its wake is curious
medley of words. many of them mean
ingless. Rapidly some new vocabulary
must be forged. The wonder of the
new sport demands it.-Harry Harper

THE BIRD-MAN.
Taking another leaf from the note
book of the racccourse. the words
"aeral jockey" are now occasionally
used. But the term Is an ugly one.
There is something vulgar about it,
and there is really nothing practical to
commend 1t. Also. as II founded upon
come the terms "aeroplanlst'' and
"aerialist." Neither seems to hit the
mark. The former. which is very ex-
tensively used, Is awkward. Such
words as horseman and seaman lead,
to the word "airman,"
which has been utilised more or less
tentatively of late. But this. again,
seems rather 'out of the picture" Then
moulded upon more or less familiar
words, we have the term flyer" This,
curiously enough, was adopted here
and there by Frenchmen during the
Rheims week of flying. Their own
mean robber as well as a flying man,
fusions between the two, This led
them to use the English word, which
they pronounced "1ai-eur" And in
this connection. there must not be
forgotten the simple description fly
ing man." This suggests the bluntneSs
of the axiom, "Call a spade n spade"
But one cannot help feeling that the
word is used merely for want of a
better one. new word Is sadly want
ed-a word that gives one some sort
of a mental picture of mans conquest
