Two moments there are, how
ever, when the eye tells the racing
airman some tale of speed.
The first Is when his machine,
gathering speed from a stspdstill

till its pace is sufficient for its
short, stubby wings to bear It
through the air; and the second
comes when, reducing the power
Of his great engine, he nears the
