Hodgson, honorarylibrarian of the Royal Aeronautical Society, gave a most interesting lecture about the history and romance offlight. Mr. Hodgson is an acknowledged authority on the subject and, with the help of slides made from old andrare prints, he covered the ground in a most fascinating manner, starting from the days when Daedalus succeeded inescaping from Crete (though not so his wretched son Icarus) down to the present time. The occasion was that of an appeal organised by Kathleen, Countess of Drogheda,on behalf of the British Red Cross Society and Order of St. John Hospital Library. A most laudable object, andthose who can spare books for the library should send them to the library at 48, Queen's Gardens, London, W.2.Mr. C. R. Fairey, as President of the Royal Aeronautical Society, introduced the lecturer, and in doing so he drewattention to the recent award made by the Society to Mr. Hodgson. An award earned by years of loyal workand taking the form of an Honorary Fellowship. 242
