GIFT AEROPLANE
(Bt TELEGRAPH.—PRESS ASSOCIATION.)
GISBORNE, 30th May
Mr. J. R. Kirk, president of the Overseas Club, through whose agency a sum of £2309 was raised for the presentation of a. Henri Farman biplane to the Admiralty, to be called after the Poverty Bay district, has been advised that when a flying machine bearing the name of any district is destroyed or ceases to exist, it will be replaced by another bearing, the same name. The district presenting the aproplane to the War Office will thus continue to have its name always associated with the air service.
