Rules have been laid down for the coming and going of airships, and a field for land machines and water space for seaplanes have been laid out. A large aeronautical convention has already been held there. Every city in the United States will have a landing-field and hangars for airplanes, as well as mechanics to care for them.
After purchasing some fresh fruit and groceries for their aerial larder, the little party betook themselves back to the landing-field, on the way passing numbers of pretty little houses which stood in the midst of beautiful gardens filled with tropical plants. As they neared the field, they saw that quite a crowd had collected since their departure.
The landing-field official announced that the Clarion's flyers had left not fifteen minutes before for Freetown, Africa. And upon investigating the helium valves in the wings of the Sky-Bird, our boys found to their dismay that fully a third of the pressure was gone, indicating that an equal quantity of gas had escaped in some manner.
Undoubtedly the huge square boxes which some of them carried aboard so easily upon their heads contained tea, for which Ceylon is famous. The person in charge of the landing-field here was a Mr. Young, an American clergyman connected with the local Baptist mission.
"It encouraged me to hope that she cares for me a little that your coldness bowled her over so completely." Mrs. Barry looked at him helplessly, and this time when she put up her napkin she touched a corner of her eye. "We stopped at the landing-field at Townley and had our talk," he went on. "And she seemed refined?" Mrs. Barry's voice was a little uncertain. "Exquisite!" he exclaimed.

We shall not see the business man flying to his office in the city from his country estate unless some landing-field is built on the lower end of Manhattan Island as has been proposed.
A few minutes later, they were circling the town to locate their landing-field which was to be marked with a large white letter T. Seeing it on the second turn, they swept down amongst a curious and half-frightened throng, and taxied to a stop. To their relief and gratification, they found that their rivals had not yet appeared.
He knew how her voice would sound and her eyes would smile. "Thank you, Pete. Thank you, good little Pete." He gazed up at the scudding clouds and his troubled soul grew quiet. The Palace Ben, taking an occasional look around at his passenger, flew directly on toward a landing-field. Their destination had hardly yet interested Geraldine.
The hold-doors were closing. The object dumped by the control-building went off. It was a chemical-explosive bomb, but its power was adequate. The wall of the building caved in. Flames leaped crazily out of the collapsed heap. The landing-field would be out of operation. The last car skidded to a stop. The two men in it ran for the boarding-stair of the cargo-boat.
Giddings's answer. "I have always entertained the greatest respect for this gentleman's honesty, if he does differ with me politically. But I must admit that since this thing has happened " "Sh-h!" warned Bob suddenly. "Here comes Mr. Wrenn now!" It was as he said.
