A 'iontract for 110 motor vehicles, valued i t. nearly £75.000, lias been obtained by a Coventry firm from Rio de Janeiro. We cannot go on indefinitely talking about "aviators" or "aeronauts," and the "Times" suggests "airmen," on the analogy of "seamen." No doubt it will come, to that, or to "fliers," or something as simple, in the end. But what about "aeroplane"? If there is one thing which universal experience shows it is that no vehicle can keep more than a fragment of its name when once it becomes familiar. The mono-syllable serenely has it—"'bus," "tram," "cab," "van." "Taxi," "hansom" and "growler" have their two syllables, but very easy ones. It seems an abolute certainty that the flying machine will become simply the "plane."
