the basket and watched the plumb-line
index of the drag rope as it showed
how fast the balloon was moving and
in what direction over the mathemat-
ical maze of green fields and brown
roads and spots of houses far below.
For unless we looked at this drag-rope
index we had no sense of motion at all,
our horizon was so vast that we had
nothing by which to judge the motion
of the balloon.
Back over Huntington Park we went,
almost straight above the field from
which we had ascended twenty five
minutes before. Then We were treated
to a lesson in aeronautics that was new
to us-the jockeying of the balloon pilot
with his big machine, so ready to am
swer his beck and call if all is well, and
so treacherous if the elements of the
air are hostile.
