Chicago.-That aeroplanes will be

within a short time was the prediction
made today by Alfred Moisant, head
of the Moisant Aviation company, dur
ing a conversation with regard to the
lessons of the Chicago air meet.
There is not the slightest doubt In

of the registered and special delivery

aeroplans service in the postal depart
ment. important mail which now is
compelled to walt or the train sched-

destination, provided, OF course, the
points wee not toe far distant to be
reached during daylight hours.
This is only one OF the possible
ties for the aeroplane demonstrated
by the Chicago meet. which served
to teach lessons not only to the flyer
and manufacturer Of aeroplanes. but
also to the promoter OF AVIATION meets.
