And they are anxious that the U.S.A.R. shall not be confused with other aero clubs in New York and other cities, which appear to be striving for existence along lines made famous by certain characteristics peculiar to the female inhabitants of Kilkenny.” 〔“Aeronauts Perform National Defense: Serve to Help Uncle Sam in U.S. Aeronautical Re-Time of Need.” ''New York Times'', January 22, 1911."〕
