"Farmer Boy Builds Flying Machine"
Walter Moldenhauer, a farmer boy near Granton, Clark County, is at work on a flying machine of the monoplane type. The parts are now about ready to be assembled and he recently received a four-cylinder 16-horsepower gasoline engine to furnish the power for the flying machine.
Mr. Moldenhauer is quite a mechanic, having already built a motor cycle and an automobile for his own use.
