Already have daring men of the air pierced the blue vault of heaven to astonishing altitudes, al­ ready have they dashed from metrop­ olis to metropolis with a speed rlval- Ing the fastest express train, already have they leaped over mountain ranges and crossed bodies of water h separate nations. If the prog­ ress is to be as great during the next three years, then. Indeed, will marvels have been accomplished beyond any- thing of which today we permit our- selves to dream. T Qtìr o/ramjtxjos accomplished In aerial navigation, ts it too much to say that even greater discoveries will be msde and applied In the near future? Where shall we place the limit upon an age which has produced a machine that talks and sings, which propels loaded cars up and down hill by means of an In visible fluid, which takes protographs through solid substances, which has Instant communication by wire be­ tween the most widely separated con tlnents, which has made conversation possible between New York and Chicago and which thinks nothing of sending wlreles messages from land to vessels hundreds of miles away at sea? After all, is a certain and safe passenger and freight service through the air more improbable to our near future than was the automobile and the electric express train to the future of the man of the oxcart and the pole propelled flaiboat? The balloon Is the elder brotbber of the aeroplane and Its discovery was tbe cause of fully as great a sensation. Compared, however, with the later air craft.
