JUNE WEEK FOLKS
ENJOY SEAPLANES

June Week visitors 10 Annapolis
are finding a pleasant and thrilling
diversion added to the usual order OF
things in the flying station across
the Severn River The aviators who
have the planes al the station are do
ing a rushing business every day in
taking passengers for short hops over
the Chesapeake and Annapolis.
There are at present two planes
at the station, and both are in the
air most OF the time. Many of the
June Week folks go to the station
every afternoon for flights. the later
hours of the day seeming TO be most
favored Ly those who wish to try
the air for the first time, probably
because the ceremonies at the Acad-
emy have heen run on a morning
schedule.
So heavy has the air business be-
come that the flyers are taking up tw /,
passengers for each fight, both of
the planes being of proper size for
carrying the extra person.
Together with the increased busi-
ness in carrying passengers for short
trips. reduction in passenger rates
has become effective with the two
planes. Two passengers are now
taken for a flight for fifteen dollars
The former price was fifteen dollars
per passenger.
Something extra attractive has been
made in the course of the flight by
the arrival of the midshipmens sum
mer practice squadron, and the sight
seer is. on every flight. enabled to
look down upon the battleships.
The operators OF the planes declare
that the location beside the Severn
River bridge is one of the best in the
country for making take-offs and land
ings with passengers aboard. The
beach is OF good sand. and for half
a mile in front of the runways the
water of the Severn is unbroken. The
spot seems TO present extraordinary
possibilities as center for seaplane
living
