LOVE AMONG THE CLOUDS

look down, so fascinated by the view
thus suddenly revealed, as to be
instantly forgetful of the great height
at which we scared. In the clearer
light her cheeks appeared flushed,
and | marked the firm grip of her
hands on the rail. Whatever of fear
had partially unnerved her during
our swift flight through the dark,
had apparently vanished in the ecstasy
of this supreme moment. She felt the
thrill, the happiness of air mastery,
the delight of conquering space, of
looking down on the little earth as
though she dwclt in a higher realm.
Such JOY is not the gift of all mortals

courage and character, it belonged as

to equal that which was now revealed
SO varlegated, so combined of beauty
and grandeur, so gorgeous in coloring

my eyes wandering from object to OBJ

We were so little, so insignificant,

through the veins.
How can | reflect that picture to

the misty clouds of early morning

great waves of smoke as they swept
to north and south, while through their
rays of the sun. Through this widen

onto the restless waters of Lake
Michigan, blue and green, except for
the Dreaming Of crested waves, but in
the distance sparkling with myriad
colors as the morning light played
across their surface, tingeing it with
crimson and gold, silver and purple,
melting away finally into dull gray.
This riot of tints intermingled in dazzl-
ing protusion, fading out, or Frightening
with every instant, yet ever circling to
a wider horizon. Not for moment
did they appear the same Here and
there in that wide expanse of sea were
vessels-mere toy boats at that dis
tance-some of them shapeless blots
on the dazzling surface, others out
lined IN clear perspective, with even
their tapering masts silhouetted in
the bright light, and volumes of black
smoke hanging in clouds above their
stacks. To north and south and
west all was water, restless, heaving.
