BALLOONS THEN AND NOW

We read that Macon is to have the
largest balloon school in the coun-
try All, the changes wrought by
the widely-known whirligig of time /,
Back more semesters than we would
care to say when we were just wee
slip of lad, there was no such thing
as balloon school. We used to see
balloons at the county fair, but nei-
theI they nor the spangled bedigh,
persons who went up in them knew
much about schools. When every
thing was ready and the red-faced
yokels who had volunteered to hold
the guy ropes were told to turn
loose, the balloon went scooting up
and scallyhooted around in the cir
cumambient hither and thither, to
say nothing of Won, seemingly wher-
ever it darn well pleased. The beau

There was nothing else he could do.
Before the day of parachutes all he
could do was hang on and let her
ride. Then, when parachutes were
invented, he'd cut loose when he got
ready and come sailing down on his
own hook. We figure that in all we
have run something like three hum
dred and seventy-odd miles to see
where these intrepid gents landed.
Mostly they'd be gone before we got
there, but there was some satisfac-
tioI in locating the exact spot where
one hit the ground and looking at
that. We don't know why, but there
was. And once, we remember, a par
achute failed to open and we stood
around and watched the crowd pry
the unfortunate aeronaut up out of
the ploughed ground with fence rails.
That kept us awake something like
a month on stretch, or, anyway, it
seemed that long, because every time
we'd close our eyes we'd see it all
over again. And we didn't exactly
enjoy 1t. But now or so they tell
