The main trouble so far developed
with the dirigible balloon is its un.
wieldiness in a wind and its liabil-
ity TO injury because Of the light
materials OF which it must be con-
structed. As the gas, container must
be of very large size to provide the
necessary buoyancy. the cost of the
dirigible is heavy. and the cost of
operation, owing TO the great amount
of gas used, is also heavy. Never

may eventually be overcome. Just
as it is possible that aeroplanes may
yet be built with power enough to
raise into the air considerable
weights and thus become available

all OF the world, unconscious of the
great joyous universe outside and all
around that might be hers, IL she
would walk out into it.
She wants "a really good time"
she says. but she doesn't specify
what is her idea of a really good
time. But as she is young and full
OF life. one can imagine that she
would like to go 10 dance, wear a
pretty frock and dance every dance
on the program; or be taken 10 the
theater by an exceedingly nice young
man: or be one of a jolly little picnic
party. A desire for all such things
is natural TO youth. and under right

what then shall she do? Shall she

nothing, and cut her on still further
from pleasant acquaintance and
friends. Rather, she should, like the

can be extracted even from her pres

times.
