ports that the Hemlock and Green Noun

HOW SHIPS GET LATE MAIL
Airplanes Used to Overtake Liners and
Drop Bags While the Vessel Is
Travelling.

Experiments have proved It entirely
practicable to deliver belated transat-
lantic mail steamers at sea by air
planes.
The ship may have taken its depar-
ture several hours previously, vet the
flying machine with a speed of 100
miles or more an hour, can easily catch
up with it and put the mail aboard.
A plane of the flying boat" type is
used for this purpose, and the water
proof mail bag is held in a chute on
the side of the hull. The aviator flies
over the ship and the rigging en-
tangles long line dropped from the
plane that has grapple tails on its end.
This line is attached to the mail bag,
which, when the grapple tails catch,
is ierked out of its chute, falling into
the sea.
1t is then an easy matter to haul
the mail bag aboard, While the steamer
continues its uninterrupted voyage.
