Text Appearing Before Image:
ails, with a red bandanna always streaming at the end. We saved ourpennies for re^ls of real linen line, and a boys standing was reckoned by the length of hiskite string. We didnt merely run across the lawn, flapping a weak-ribbed bit of Japanesepaper behind us. We went up on Bare Hill with kites which stood five feet high and sentthem up until they were specks and almost pulled us off our feet. Once, indeed, I waspulled quite off mine, and sailed fifty yards with my boots dangling face high above theground, till a companion grabbed me by the heels. I wouldnt have let go if Id beencarried fifty feet aloft! Ive never experienced any sensation so delightful since. We were not solving any problems of aviation then, but we were experiencing its ro-mance. Now the problems have been solved, and every boy is familiar with aeroplanes.But where is the romance ? Where are the stilts and kites of yesteryear ? After all, thegreatest man is not he who solves a problem, but he who invents one! (12)
