NV first lesson was taken from Ora

equipped with an Anzani motor, for it
upon the market, and it was probably
fortunate for me that my machine did
not have the greater horsepower de-
veloped by the later type of engine. AT
that time we did not have the wingless
machines which are used now in some
aviation schools and which keep man
running along the ground without the
power to rise until he has become thor
oughly accustomed to his new vehicle
and the operation of the controls has be-
come instructive.
T learned as did most Of the men who
have made a success of the work. The
controls were explained to me and j
which the machine operates. I knew
what to do to make the monoplane go
up down or steer to right or left, and

serve my balance-that is. | knew them

Then Grahame-W explained to me
that BleriOt always has a tendency to

KING SOL0MON'S MINES.
They May Have Been the Ancient Gold
Workings at Rhcdesia.

They May Have Been the Ancient Gold
Workings at fhodesia.
Rhodesia. that province Of British
Africa lying between the ZambeZl and
the Limpopo rivers. has considerable
deposits Of gold. The ancients mined
and carried away enormous quantities
of the precious metal, but under the
scientific mining systems Of the pres
ent day their operations will be greatly
surpassed.
1t has been thought that Rhodesia
was the ancient land of Ophir, the land
Of the mysterious king Solcmon's
mines," but this theory is strongly
combated by some investigators. The
ancient gold workings are the basis of
modern workings. For every ten
square miles Of Rhodesia, it is stated.
there was one ancient mine-that Is.
there are $4,000 old workings-which
means that a stupendous wealth was
dug out Of the earth before the days OF
Cecil Rhodes. Much of this wealth
must have gone to the north and east
1t was probably wrought into the
crown of the Queen OF Sheba and hlled
the Golfers of Solomon.
The ancient smelling furnaces are
said still to be of easy recognition.
They are sunk into the floor" The
furnace blowpipes are made of the
finest granite powder cement. and the
nozzles of the blowpipes are covered
with splashes of gold. The Innings OF
the holes are covered with specks OF
gold. When the first lining became
worn by the heat fresh lining OF &C.
ment of an excellent quality. which
has outlasted time. was smeared round
on top of the old lining. 1t Is said
that one can take an old lining. split
off the layers with knife and ind
gold splashes in abundance.
The tools of the ancient workers
which have so far been discovered In
clude a small soapstone hammer and
Furnishing stones Of water worn rock,
to which gold still adheres. There are
evidences that the ancients carried on
an extensive industry in the manufac-
ture of gold ornaments and utensils.
