"As a (icrnian I inn happy that

Dr. Kekener and his ship,

Many now look ami wilder,
seeing an airship fly over. Once
they looked and wondered, the
more ignorant shouting, '"(let

tomobile. Now, more than 20,

and take tlicni as a matter of

Soon the airship will he n i

Once that was n matter of
theory. Now it is a matter of
fact, lien from bos Angeles,
in a hurry, fly 250 miles to this

talk with their father, stayed
half an hour, and flew hack in

Dr. KcUener's flights, four
times across the ocean, and his

possible service to flying every
