The cut at the right shows the general con struction. The wings are here shown in semi closed position. They are made of tough paper, supported by light metal stays on hardwood dowling, and fold up like a fan. A light spring holds them steady when . in spread or open position. The Monoplane is shot into the air by means of a strong sling or catapult, furnished with each outfit. Note the cut at the left, showing ita operation. The wings are closed, and by means of the sling the Monoplane is shot high into the air, reaching a height of 100 to 300 feet. The air resistance holds the wings in closed position until it has reached the top of its flight Then the wings automatically spread open and the Monoplane spirals gracefully to the ground, close to the. shooter's feet It re mains in the air a minute or longer and lands with out injury, as it comes down gradually to the earth TheJoyTQy Soaring Monoplane Provides wonderful sport, not only for the children -bat for tha grown-ups, as well.
