OPTIMISTIC VIEW
OF SOLDIER BOY

The following copy of a letter re-
ceived by Mrs. Frank H. Adams of 5
Church street, of this city from her
sister who in turn received it from
her son, Stephen F. Claf1in who is
with the British Royal Flying Corps
will be of interest to many for it is q
fine example of just how optimisticNare
the boys who answer the call in the
proper spirit.
British Royal Flying Corps,
Toronto, Canada,
Sept. IS, 1917.
Well, mother, have been up in the
air" at last, and believe me, the first
to my dying day. To go soaring
through space, in and out of cloud
with the earth like a colored and
patched map thousands of feet below
and to look out and see nothing but a
few wires and square feet of cloth be-
tween you and the ground, with a
roaring engine in front and all
eternity of space stretching around
and below, and then to have the err
gine shut off and to dive down until
the earth rushes up at you like a close
up on a movie screen, then to straight
en- out and go up and up into the clear
air and sunshine, with a 100-mile wind
blowing past you and the upturned
white specks of the faces below l3ok-
ing up at you. there is no experience
equal to it in this world or the next
believe.
1t is as if a whole new life. with in
finite possibilities, and unknown fas-
cinating things to be discovered, were
opened to you.
We are not flying officially vet. /
went out to the flying ground and by
pulling a few wires got one of the
lieutenants to take me up If wae
ever in doubt-no more. / think if
knew certainly I would be killed in a
month, I wouldn't miss the chance Ia
go on and have a plane of my own.
An hour of flying is worth years on
the ground. I hope to get up again
this week and if I don't, believe me if
will not be my fault.
