Dr. Greth was reticent when asked his opinion of the result of yester- day’s test. “In a large way,” he said, “I was pleased and confirmed in my belief that my scheme of navigating the air is practicable.

He may have been capable of handling the steering apparatus with which I have equipped the machine, but the motor evidently bothered him. “When he reached a certain altitude he found a lower temperature and pressure than is present on the earth. Students of aerial navigation could have found a remedy for such con- ditions, but an untrained man facing a fall of 1000 feet is likely to lose his head. As a result the cold air and the pressure generated by the motor caused what is called a ‘freeze’ in ure.” ————eee. Young ladles should dress well.
