He Has to Make the Sur
face in the Air He
GIides Upon

He finds no surface in the
air to glide upon except as he
makes it for himself, and his
voyages are made at continually
changing levels. The air is all
around him and its currents
may assail him from any direc-
ton; accordingly, he must rem
der himself familiar with all
their vagaries and be prepared
to take advantage of every
popularity that they may pre-
sent. The man who loses his
life in advancing our knowl-
edge of the ways of the air is a
martyr to as worthy a cause as
was ever offered to the spirit
of heroism.

The AeropIanist Is a Fish
Rather Than a
Sailor

One great difference between
the navigation of the water and
that of the air must never be
lost sight of-in the first case
the navigator travels on the sur
face of the element that bears
him; in the second, he travels
through and in the midst of that
element. The aeroplanist is
rather fish than a sailor. But
his machine has no buoyant
bladder, like a balloon or fish,
and must depend upon its mo-
ton to support it. Possibly if
Sir William Ramsay's reported
discovery of a gas 10 times
lighter than hydrogen proves to
be a reality aeroplanes may
hereafter be furnished with sup
porting bladders, which will not
be too cumbrous for use, like
the gas bags OF today, but, IN
the meantime, the machine must
be developed along its original
lines, which exclude any sup
port except that furnished by
the reaction of its planes on the
air.
Therefore, to turn a somer-
sault with an aeroplane and to
make it describe vertical curves
and circles in the air is not an
idle amusement for those who
like to risk their lives in hare
Drained adventure, but a very
practical method of developing
the art of aerial navigation. The
air man." unlike the mariner,
is not navigator in two dimen-
sions only, but in three. He has
to deal with cubical space and
his evolutions are performed up
and down as we'll as to right
and left.

= THE CITY HORSES =
By WILLIAM F. KIRK

nATIENT, plodding, bravely toiling,
Slipping on the icy grade
i Where the devils pot is boiling
In the city that he made;
Straining at the thoughtless urging
Of grim men as dumb as they,
Where the traffic's tide is surging,
See them on their weary way.
Sick and sore, but uncomplaining
At their humble, dreary lot;
Wet and cold when it is raining,
Dizzy when the sun is hot;
Over pavements hard and endless
See the city horses go,
Till removed, all still and friendless,
To the graves they welcome so.
