DISTRIBUTION OF CUPS AND PRIZES BY LADY MONTAGU OF BEAULIEU Sunday Flying IN connection with the Hampshire Air Pageant l>eing held on a Sunday, Mr. O. E. Simmonds, Chairman of the Pageant Committee of the Hampshire Aeroplane Club, has made the following reply to the joint letter of protest sent by the Bishop of Winchester (Dr. Woods) and the President of the Hants Free Church Federation (the Rev. H. T. Spencer) regarding this question. He states that the pageant has been specially arranged at an hour that will not interfere with morning or evening service. There is one chutch in the vicinity which holds an afternoon service, but it would appear possible so to arrange the services that, on that Sunday, the service might be held-in the church in the evening. The object of the Hampshire Aeroplane C. he adds, is not commercial, but is to familiarise the gu> public with flying, and to create an air-minded iw " The pageant is our great appeal to democracy, ana su is the only day when the appeal can be practically uni\ Wednesday is possible for one section, Saturday lor an - but Sundav for all."
