There is a certain amount of mad- ness in the desire for bicness now evident in so many cities. Why should a city have a million inhabitants?

Are these the qualities and the distinctions sought by the larger and more ambitious Canadian cities? Are the rulers of our cities trying to produce mean citizens or clean citizens?

Consequently There Is No Feeling of Dizziness or Giddiness, and After Rising 3 Few Hundred Feet There Is No Sensation of Speed. Comparatirely few persons can look down from a great height without a creepy sensation running through the nerves and chasing down the spine. and one would naturally think these unpleasant symptoms would be in. tensiï¬ed if one were to rise several hundreds of feet in the air in a flying machine. But that idea is a mistake. according to Mr. Charles C. Turner in an article in the Pall Mall Maga- zine. in which he tells how beginners are taught the use or the aeroplane and describes the sensations of flight. ‘ He says: “The manner in which a course of flight lessons begins depends chiefly on the weather. it it is ï¬ne and calm a pupil is at once taken out for pas- senger flights. sitting behind the teacher or beside him. according to the type of machine. and having noth- ing to think about except the novelty of his experiences and the new sweet in which he sees familiar things. “His ï¬rst flight is a great event in the career of the pupil. and when it is over he is anxious for the next Bis estimate of the diflculties that lie before him is more modest. and he is ready to besiege his instructor with have gripped them quite so hard. for he soon found that the motion at the . machine was not in the least disturb ALL SENSE 0F HEIGHT LOST. 1115. “To start it a mechanic stood behind ' to main plane; ant} gave the propel- n - ‘_.J†SAILINB IHE AIR. $3309.53; 032‘. ’éé‘a‘éï¬aoua'mr and making the machine vibrate.
