Ten years ago a proposal to fiy

would have seemed :hardly less praet-
icable than a suggeestion to- day that
a flight ought to • be arranged to the
moon. The thing seemed absolutely
beyond the pale of possibility. The
airplane at that time was still a
novelty, although it had been seen in
many parts of theworld, but it was
regarded by all except a handful of
enthusiasts as something little better
than a toy, something of not much.

1909, Lows Bleriot, a French-
man shook the warlct by flying
across the English Channel, and
thereby his name became immortal.
It iso true that the distance he tra-
veled was perhaps• 'twenty miles, the
trip taking forty minutes. The feat
was accomplished at dawn. The ma-
chine used was a monoplane, a frail
thing that cost only $2,000 - to build,
and of n type that would now be as
obsolete as the .. things we used to
call horseless-carriages. Neverthe-
less, the feat was a daring one, and
•only a bit of luck enabled Bleriot to
land safely in Dover, for after the

on February 16 1 nel, for Hubert Latham had tried
the trip ,. six ' days earlier and had
fallen into the sea a few miles from
'Calais, the cause being that his en-
gine went cold. Shortly afterward
Latham tried again and got within
sight of Dover only to fall again.
Whether he lived to make the flight
like so many thousands , of others we
do not know, but if so he would
think no inore of it than a Toronto
rian thinks of motoring to Hafhilton.
A fortnight afterward he would be
unable to remember what in particu-

made - a record -breaking flight
through the air. .The next year they
built a motor which they attached
to their plane, - and dumbfounded
humanity, by remaining . in the air
for fifty-nine seconds. It was prob-
ably after this trip that the first
prediction of flying across the At:
lantic Was made.
The Wright brothers had master-
ed the underlying principles of fly-
ing, and the only thing that stood
between the' fifty-nine second flight
and the forty-nine minute flight was
a suitable engine. To -day all that
stands between the existing record
and the fifty-nine hour flight is the
problem of an adequate engine -
that is to say a .light enough and
strong enough engine -and a suffi-
cient supply of fuel. In 1905, the
Wrights had found an engine that
was considered a wonder in those
days, Tan with it made the first ini-

by the coheeion of the water against

The dream of man. flying like. a
bird is one of the oldest dreams of
the human family. Leonardo da
Vinci, painter, sculptor, engineer,
and one of the greatest all-round
geniuses the world has seen, was
convinced of the practicability of
flying, and drew up plans that for
long passed as scientific to show
how it might be done. He had no
scheme but that men might be pro-
vided - with artifical wings that
should be operated by the shoulders•
just as the birds operate their pin-
ions. Of the hundreds who dis-
cussed the subject from the begin-
ning of the sixteenth eentury till the
beginning of the twentieth, few bad
any other conception of flying than
that 'elaborated by do Vinci that
represented in the balloon. It was
the gasoline engine that made mod-
eln flying possible, and any limita-
tions that are to -day unposed upon
it are due also to the engine.
