The time is at hand now for Oma-

to visualize; to dream futures for
aerial vehicles. No longer is the
airplane to be an occasional attrac-
ton in Omaha. 1t will soon be part

ring in competition with the auto
mobiles, street cars and heavy sleep

The J. T. Stewart Motor company
has entered the airplane business in
earnest and bears the distinction Of
being the first Nebraska firm 10
sell airplanes. Not only is it the
first to enter the field, but it is frst
to make sale, as two planes have
already been purchased by the Ora

carrying service and exhibition
fights.
Plan Regular Trips.
soon these planes will be making
regular trips to Kansas City and
Chicago
Commercial activities will soon be
figured in terms of airplane time.
Money, mail, passengers and busy
business men will be seen fitting
from point to point high above the
buildings.
The practicability of this method
of transporting money and mail is
evident at a glance. The annual
