dove through the cloud expecting to

went up in the clouds again. drop
ping my wheels, out now and then
to be sure was still headed in the
direction of that coveted balloon.
Soon 1 was right opposite it and TAX
ing a quick look around to see again
if any Boche were hanging around
DelOW, mace a QUICK turn ana nedQ-
ed straight at the balloon.
Not a Shell
Not a shell had broken around
me yet, as had done the stalking
trick fairly well, but Just then I
discovered my telescope sight was
very dirty, so much so that 1 could
not see the balloon through it. How
ever being some distance away neld
my fire, but not for long, as 1 had
been told to start shooting at quite
distance, as the special gun l had
would not burn its object at close
quarters. Finally beginning to shoot
and correcting my aim by watching
the flaming bullets. The first batch
went all around the balloon. Quick
ly making the correction let another
bunch go and some of those hit the
mark. That balloon was getting to
be quite a biz mark by this time.
Gollyi 1t looked as big as q barn.
Big yellow and glistening it looked,
as it swung from its moorings und
right on its top was a black cross
which reminded me of a porous
plaster on a sore stomach, for it sure
was one far and bulging sausage.
Hard Luck
Every bullet was hitting now, but
the doggone thing wouldn't burn. II
made me mad, for not only was l
getting mighty close to that sausage.
but unhealthy close to the ground
