TRANSATLANTIC AIRCRAFT

Nine years ago. at Fort Meyer, Va.
just across the Potomac River
from our national capitalize
writer witnessed the first public
flight of a man-carrying airplane
that the world had ever seen, the
machine being driven by Wilbur
Wright, one of the now wOrld-fa-
nous brother-inventOrs. That first
little plane was crude and imperfect
and would now, as compared with
present day aircraft, be fit only for
the museum or the junk pile; how
ever, the event marked the opening
of a wonderful era. Prior to that
first flight a few persons in differ
ent parts of the world had had
visions of our modern airplanes, but
the worlds billions looked upon
such persons as idle dreamers and,
if the present-day work-or-fight
laws had then been in force, these
so-called Missionaries would doubt
less have been arrested as Migrants
and thrown into Jail or drafted in
to the army.
During the first five years after
the original flight. airplane progress
was slow and unsatisfactory but,
since the great war started, devel-
opment has gone forward by leaps
and bounds. and accomplishments
have been so great that now moth
ing surprises us. Recently, in New

Of the country airplanes. singly and

accomplishments as the successful
establishment of new aero-postal
lines here and in Europe, the recent
62i mile nonstop flight of a large
group Of Italian planes across the

The State Fair at Louisville OPP
ened this week with promise Of
a large attendance and with unusu-
ally good exhibits. The attractions
this year are of high order, with
especial attention TO things military.
Attendance at the State Fair is more
than luXury-it is a means of in
struetion and inspiration TO every
one who goes with eyes to see and
ears TO hear the many notable
things which have been assembled
by the management for the benefit
Of their patrons. In the matter OF
national resources, Kentucky is one
of the richest states in the Union.
We are just beginning to develop
these resources; there must be no
setback: we must not allow sections,
less favored by climate and nature,
TO surpass us in production in the
future. The interests of the city
dweller and the farmer are identical,
and the State Fair brings Louis
willie and Kentucky together in a
way that all other devices have
failed TO do.
