The natural solicitude of mankind,
for the health and happy-headedness
of the aviator, has been manifested
here before, not so much as a pay-
ing of dues or prayer for safe pas-
sage, as a recklessly ill-concealed
Just as in that underlying case, of
a glance knocked sideways by an un-
discovered cause, we encounter the
aviator under duress again, and pon-
der his vulnerability to this fate.
Take a demonstrably credible aviat-
or, and make an utter hazard of
his haircut, belch fumes from his
face, while bleaching out its tex-
tures and concealing its ornaments.
And still men clamor to go flying.
