ENCOURAGING AIR “SENSE” There can be no doubt that the next few years will see even greater advances in the progress of civil aviation than has been witnessed during the past decade. Already in America and Europe the aeroplane has become a feature of every day life —it plays a recognized part in commercial activities and the ‘■‘air sense” of the ordinary person has been developed to a very large extent. New Zealanders have so far had but few opportunities of cultivating the “air habit” but if the objects of the Aero Club Art Union are realized—as undoubtedly they will be—a great step forward will have been made. The Government, realizing the importance of the projects of the club, have lifted the ban that has existed against art unions to enable the club to raise funds to provide more machines, gear—and most important of all—to purchase and equip an aerodrome. That so deserving a cause will receive the support of the public is assured —especially when the chancee of winning more than one hundred valuable prizes are also offered as an inducement.—l2/10/29.

No longer need the complications and difficulties of moving to another town worry you. The New Zealand Express Company is ready to take over the whole job—packing, transport, and unpacking at the other end. Expert packers are employed, and the most up-to-date weatherproof pantechnicons used. Your goods arrive on time and in perfect condition.— .Advft,
