The purpose of the club, as set out in its Incorporation papers, is to advance the interest In aeronautics In Cincinnati, to foster the interest of those engaged In the art of aircraft, and popularise and study the science of aviation.Several of us felt that Cincinnati should have some representation in aeronautics and as we had a personal Interest in the sport we decided to organise a club for that purpose, said Secretary Freeh. “We tried out one home-made aeroplane several days ago. but the wind was bod and It was wrecked We will wait now until nice weather and will keep at It. With one number In the Blerlot school we expect to make good progress after he returns and takes practical charge of the'aeroplane flights. Holt and Mueller are both experienced balloon men and will have charge of that department. We expect to have aeroplanes flying over Cincinnati at frequent Intervals before the summer is over.”The club is In reality the successor of the Cincinnati Aero club, which was organised several years ago. That, however, was organised only to promote an exhibition and was not a permanent institution.lt;■Iere116stvsolUatof180bet*86180pr«FiATTORNEY WILLIAM J.
