we have other records. John Will
kins, one of the founders OF the Royal
Society and Bishop Of Chester re-
ports, writing in 1910. that at about
the time Of the Confessor, "a certain
English monk called Elmerus" flew
from town in Spain distance Of
more than furlong. at the begin
ming of the sixteenth century an
Italian alchemist undertook to fly
from the walls of Stirling Castle to
France. He had equipped himself
with wings worked by wires. He
fell and broke his thighbonc-an acct
dent which he explained by asserting
that in his wings had been some
feathers Of barnyard fowls which had
an affinity for the ground; whereas
If they had been made entirely Of
eagles feathers. they would have
been attracted by the air.
Leonards da Vinci about the same
time approached the subject in a
more scientific spirit and his note
books contain several sketches OF
wings to be fitted TO the arms and
legs.
The next real step in aviation was

shaped as the picture shows it.
Whether it was filled with heated air.
like the Nontgolicrs of n century and
a half later, or whether it was filled
with gas is not known. Whatever
the lifting power, the fact that it was
steered and propelled by planes
shaped like fins entities it TO he
classed as an acroplane, and the first
one of which there is any record that
actually flew.
At the end OF its flight it seems to
have turned turtle, spilling its pas.
sengerS and putting an end TO similar
experiments for many years TO come.
At any rate, although the idea OF
machine made by man which would
rival the birds goes back centuries
before this, the Flying Fish" of the
French inventor was the first ac.
tually to fly. And, although its end
was disasterous, the fact that it did
fly and the knowledge that it had
flown made it inevitable that some
day man would be able to ny without
certain disaster.
The descent Of the improved arco.
plane Of today is direct from this old
crude and hazardous conception of
1916 and this year therefore is the
.hrec hundrcdth anniversary Of mans
conquest of the air.
The earliest aviation legends give
us Pegasus, the winged horse,
Medca's dragons and Deadalus. We
have winged men in both Egyptian
and Assyrian bas,rclicfs. Later on

sound theories since the Flying

and so would rise. TO these globes
he proposed to attach a boat with
sails. But the globes collapsed.
The next interesting development
OF the flying machine was an aerial
boat invented by DR.. l.. de Gusman,
who was a chaplain Of the King OF
Portugal, in 1909. De Gusman ad-
mitted his Indebtedness to the Franch
inventor OF 1915. but he made his
model in the form of a bird.
After this came period Of flying

that Of Restif dc la Bretonne, who,
in 1871. made short flights in the APP
