Frank MCGrath Offers so
Acres North of Town.
TWO-STALL HANGAR TO
BE BUILT AT ONCE
Local Aerial transportation Com
pany Also Contemplating Early
Purchase of DeHaviland Plane
of Capacity of 1875 Miles an Hour.

Frank McGrath of Amity, owner
of the S0-acre tract three miles
north of town has indicated his
public spirit and good sportsman
ship by leasing his S0-acre tract of
farm land to the Holly Airline
Transportation Co. for an aviation
field. Mr. McGrath was just about
ready to plOW up the field for
crops when apprised by members
of the company that the tract
ideally met their needs for a school
and the landing of airplanes which
will be passing Holly in the near
future. Pilot George Puflea of
the company says that this tract is
in every way the most desirable
that could have been found here.
Now, that the field has been Sc
lected, the erection of a 2-stall
hangar will be erected as soon as
materials can be assembled and me
chanics secured to do the work. A
committee to solicit funds for the
hangar will probably be out in a
few ays to raise the necessary $3.50
to defray the cost of the building
materials. A portion of this money
is already on hand, the same being
surplus from the Fourth OF July
celebration.
The hangar will doubtless be
completed during the coming
month and everything in readiness
for the instruction of students in
aviation by Get. lst when Plot
'fuffea will open courses OF instruc-
tiOn.r. Already inquiries are being
received by the Airline Transports
tiOn Co. and it is not improbable
that from Is to 25 students will be
enrolled at the opening of the
school. This number will doubt
less be materially increased after
the school is Thoroughly under way,
since the demand for efficient air
pilots will be unlimited from this
time on and as new aerial trans
pOrtation companies are organized
throughout the country.
The Holly company is already
planning on the purchase within
the next few months of second
airplane to be used in it's school,
but more especially for crOss-coun-
try passenger service. This new
pane will probably be a De Havi-
land and capabe of speed of 125
to 1876 miles per hour.
Many local people who have
been inclined to look upon the Or
ganization and operations of the
Holly Airline Transportation Co. as
chimerical or visionary are quite
likely to be greatly surprised be,
fore the first of the coming year
rolls around. And winter cold is
not a barrier to aerial navigation
Pilot Puf1ea says, 1--WE pay little or
no attention to winter. We can fly
as rapidly in winter as in summer
and we will be just as glad to carry
people on cross-country flights
during the coming winter as we are
now" Continuing, Mr.. Puflea said
I'VE are going to show you in actu.
al practical demonstration all that
we advertise to do: we are going to
teach young men to fly, and we
are going to carry those who wish
to make long trips, safely to wher,
ever they may wish to go, whether
it be Denver, Kansas City or Chi
cagO, or anywhere else"
