Newspaper article about Kenneth Endt's model airplane

When Kenneth Endt, 12 years old, 1057 Morton street, grows up he probably will be an aviator or a builder of airplanes.

Kenneth, who is a student in the Bonsall Public School, Mt. Ephraim avenue and Lowell street, has completed a replica of Lindbergh’s famous Spirit of St. Louis. Kenneth has called his model Pride of Camden. The plane is on exhibition at his home and is eyed longingly by all his boy friends.

The model is two feet long. Kenneth built it in manual training classes in school. It took him four weeks to build the little model.

“I want to be an aviator like Lindbergh when I grow up,” Kenneth said today, “and I want to make my own airplanes. I’ll bet if this airplane was big enough, it would fly. Some day I’m going to fly across the Atlantic Ocean and maybe I’ll take a trip to the North Pole. When I go I will take my sisters, Grace and Al[?]a, with me.”
