staerinn an Asronlana.

The driving of motorcar demands
a fair measure of vigilance and nerve,
but by the general consent of those
who have tried both forms OF amuse-
ment it is nothing to the steering OF an
aeroplane. From the point of view of
personal daring and initiative the new
est method of travel finds a closer par
allel in the early human feats of tam
ing the horse for riding and learning
to sail boat than in the invention
OF the steamship or the railway en-
CINE. The prominence OF the human
element in the new pursuit comes nat
urally out in the concentration of Pop
ular interest even more in the ''6. ring
men" than in their machines. When
railways and steamships were new the
absorption OF public attention in them
was immense. But the machine then
dwarfed the man.-London Times.
