Civil Aerodromes.—It was decided to support the Memorandum prepared by the Civil Aviation Section of the London Chamber of Commerce on the subject of safe guarding of aerodrome sites. Portrait of Lord Wakefield.—At the request of the Royal Aero Club, Lord Wakefield, one of the Vice-Presidents of the Club, has kindly consented to sit for his portrait, which will be hung in the Club. Capt. Oswald Birley has been commissioned by the Club to paint the portrait. Air Touring.—The Royal Aero Club has under considera tion a proposal to issue credit carnets for the supply of fuel to British air tourists while touring abroad. The proposal has received the approval of the F.A.I, and will come into operation very shortly. ARMORIAL BEARINGS AND THE AIR A S far as we are aware, aeronautics **• have been introduced into armorial bearings for the first time in a coat of arms just designed by the College of Arms and officially granted to the Heston and Isleworth Urban District Council. These armorial bear ings—shown in the "illustration—are officially described as follows: — " Tierce in Pairle Azure Sable and Gules in Chief Two Wings Conjoined in Base Argent, to the Dexter a Cross Bottonn6e Or, and to the Sinister a Lion Rampant Guardant Per Fesse of the Last and of the Fourth, as the same are in the margin hereof more plainly depicted." It is worth while noting that the lion was taken from the arms of Hounslow Priory, which was one of the first suppressed by Henry VIII, while the cross was taken from the seal of the Monastery of St. Saviour and St. Brigit of Syon, the only Eng lish house of the Brigittine Order which was founded in 1415. In view of these circumstances, it is rather pleasing to find that Heston has been given a pair of wings in recognition of the airport, and the approval of this coat of arms by the local authorities clearly shows the local attitude towards the airport— perhaps a rather striking instance of a point of view which may well be taken as an example to other districts. It is obvious, of course, that its air activities have put Heston on the map of Europe in a way that nothing else could have done, and it is to be hoped that traces of the original foundation of 1929 may survive as long in history as the traditions of these nice sounding old religious institutions have done. 530
