WHY MAN LEARNED TO FLY?

onward and upward instinct for
getting places, now had millions
OF years momentum and has been
gaining ever since.
BY evolutionary transforma-
tons certain fish developed into
amphibians, such as toads and
salamanders. forms of life that
hesitate between being either
aquatic or terrestrial. Yet from
the stock of these amphibians
arose the giant dinosaurs that
numbered and plunged and
wrecked their environments.
From this reptile stock there
were derived lighter creatures
that spread skin, as if between its
enormously elongated little finger
and arm, and used this contriv-
ance as a sail or wing. These
creatures received the name
pterodactyls. They were really
flying lizards.
From such clumsy pioneers
evolved the modern birds and out
Of the same reptilian stock
sprang little fuzzy. warm-blooded
mammals. Great forests grew
and in them prospered the ances-
tors of monkeys and apes. and
man sprung from that fuzzy
stock. Their hind feet could
grasp a limb so firmly as to let
the front pair tinker with any
thing that seemed interesting.
The apes cousin, man, came
down from the trees, but he never
ceased tinkering and monkeying
with those front paws Of his until
he achieved his ambition 10 fly.
Alas, he seems TO have achieved
not the wings Of an angel, but
Of the devil
Fully as much as the bird, the
insect has been an inspiration for
man to fly. II is seen as help
less. slow-moving grub on the
land or a wriggler in the water.
Then, after a brief retirement
from the world, il bursts forth I
with the gorgeous wings Of a
butterfly, the gloating song of
the mosquito or the mosquitoes
enemy, the dragon fly.
One Of the best examples of
winged envy is the vulture, lazily
soaring and circling as he studies
the ground with telescope eye
for signs Of a dead or dying
animal But all the while he
keeps a jealous watch on other

trance 20 a bay. he could beat
his fellows, skirting the shore. In
a crude boat, he could beat the
swimmer. The man on horse
back was so much superior 20
the foot traveller, that he was
the envy of all others until motor
vehicles made the horse obsolete.
The fastest train or steamboat
can always charge the highest
fare. Even though the passen-
gers enjoy the scenery and regret
the trip is over so soon, they
would not think OF wasting their
time on a slower conveyance. For
some busy persons time is indeed
precious, but TO others IL not only
has no value but most of their
energy is devoted to passing the
time away.
These time-killers are just as
eager TO take the crowded eX-
press rather than the more COM
Portable local because they feel
they must save a few minutes of
their worthless time.
The real reason, deep down in
their subconscious minds, is
that billion-year-old prompting
wherever they may be going, TO
get there before the other fellow
has eaten all the food
II sends the little boy 20 the
ice cream party carly and he
knows il.

be seen at the four points of the
compass. AS long as these dots
which represent other vultures
remain visible. he keeps on
searching the ground beneath.
But let one Of those dots
vanish and he will instantly start
Tapping at top speed in the di-
rection of the disappearance. He
knows his brother vulture has
found carrion and descended TO
the feast. In a few minutes half
a dozen envious vultures have ar
rived and more are on their way.
Most flying creatures are envi-
Gus of one treasure. the only
thing they know-food.
Man, besides food, needs
clothes, shelter and fuel for
warmth and cooking.
II this were all he would have
little need for wings. Instead Of
these few the treasures he will
fight for have become almost be-
