Hauling a seaplane ashore after U-boat hunt.

distinguish people, but white flash from
the destroyer followed by quick electric
blinking, was translated by the observer
into hearty greeting.
"Hullo! Glad to see you!'
We answered in kind, then flew On
down the long lines Of ships that rode
the shining sea, each with white feather
astern, plumed above with black smoke.
First the destroyers, slender as a lance;
next the broad decks of big tramp; on
over ship after ship we sailed till tho
graceful shape of the converted yacht
passed beneath.
Up there the sun shone with a golden
effulgence unknown on earth. As it were
in great silence. for that was the effect
produced by the tremendous noise, we
shot back and forth circling and recircling
the feet When we swung out on the
tanks it would break up into small de-
tachments-to resolve once more into
long, straight columns as we wheeled
ahead or astern.
At intervals the observer had Owed
down into his cubbyhole and we would
see only his back above the wireless re-
ceiver The interest that lad took in his
work was fine to see. Always he was
busy as a bee-now up, now down;
sweeping with his binoculars the sea be-
low; signalling our eonsort or the de-
stroyer; his face all swollen and purple
from the bite of the wind, but cheerful
and happy as a soaring lark; q good
average specimen Of our fine sailor breed
Writes Radio Message on Slate.
He presently bodied up holding slate
on which he had chalked q radio just re-
ceiyed. 1t was not from the convoy sail
ing so quietly under our protecting
shadow. 1t came hurting down the
meridians, perhaps from the Mediter-
ranean, more likely from up the English
Channel.
ENEMY ships in sight"
With the German fleet bottled up in
portf 1t seemed absurd. At the station
that night the commander insisted that
he must have misread the call. But l am
not so sure Of that, for the very next
day the Paris papers came out with
description of Tip and run raid made
by German destroyers in the English
Channel
Submarine quite near" a second ran.
This undoubtedly came from distance.
Nevertheless, the thrill of it tautened our
nerves and stimulated our scrutiny of the
waters for the forty miles we escorted the
convoy across our sector.
A red pennant streaming below tho
golden fish belly of eur consort gave the
signal for home, and down the streaming
path of the low sun between blue sky and
gray green sea we roared on, great birds
homing from afar. Once our pilot paused
to circle an object that looked like a con-
ming tower and proved barrel, and this
gave our eonsort lead of two miles.
She was flying higher than we, and as
l watched her against the sky there came
one of those incidents that gave rise to
the rule that plane must never fly alone.
She wavered like duck shot In mid air;
the next instant swooped down on a long
nose dive and alighted with great white
splash in the sea. She was sitting when
we came up, wings outstretehed like .
winded gull thirty miles from home,
Twice we circled about her TO make sure

On the transport that brought us
across the above question was asked
whenever two young fellows whose khaki
suits had the blue and gold shoulder
straps of naval Lieutenant appeared on
deck. The explanation that they belonged
to the United States Naval Aviation Ser
vice, moreover, invariably produced the
following exclamation:

confess to sharing the general Igno-
rance, and when an opportunity opened
for me to visit certain of our air stations
in France 1 jumped at the chance to
remedy it.
War, like poverty, makes strange bed
fellows, and I found my first station in a
little coast town surrounded by peaked
stone houses gray with age and menaced
BY fat belied windmills that shook long
wooden arms from the distance. Than
the contrast between our loose trousered
sailor lads and the wooden shoed French
peasants there could be nothing more vio-
lent. But here it is all on the surface.
The station, with its hangers and bar
racks, sits on the edge of stone quay
from where the big seaplanes take the air
like giant flying fish. Its neatness, order,
the impression of well oiled machine
running efficiently and without noise that
l obtained at first sight was largely ex-
planned by the fine team work in evidence
at the officers open conference to which
l was invited the following morning
Based on Democratic Theories.
First the mail was read aloud and each
paper discussed before being handed over
to the particular officer in whose province
it came One communication revealed at
once the sound democratic principles
upon which our naval policies are based
and the interest its officers take in their
men. 1t called for all enlisted men under
20 to be given an opportunity to take
an examination for admittance to An
napolis; the best hundred to be appointed.
Bombs and machine guns, sights, ranges,
bomb practice, tactics, conveys and sub
marines bristled through the latter part
of the talk Outside the sun was shed

quaint old town. could see through the
window fat windmill reckoning serenely
for us to come out and enjoy the air. 1t
was gristing its wheat as in the peaceful
years that were past. 1t was all so lovely
and quiet the war seemed very far away
till the commander began to read q report
from another sector.
1t set forth how two planes from that
station had sighted submarine on the
surface the preceding day. While they

manGuVred 10 get between II and the sun
to permit accurate sighting Of their
bombs it Submerged little late, how
ever, for swooping low the planes dropped
all four of their bombs, scoring two hits.
Like wounded whale coming up from
deep soundings with the harpoon still
bedded in its vitals, the U-boat reap
peared, its stern and coming tower under
water, however, bows pointing up at an
angle Of forty-fve degrees. Evidently the
imprisoned crew were making desperate
efforts to right it, for the blind steel head
raised and lowered and raised again from
frothing whirlpool churned up by the
screws.
Another bomb would have made a quick
end, and while one plane flew swiftly
away to fetch more the other lowered
above the great steel creatures death
agony. 1t sank, but rose again-this time
belly up like a dying fish, its port side
exposed throughout its length. But in
the terse language of the report: "In all
that time the coming tower failed to rise
above the water"
Mental Agony of Crew Severe.
1t would be easy to dilate on the mental
agony of the crew desperately battling
for dear life amid the acid fumes Of
capsized battery tanks-but of what
profit Sufficient that after a last furry
she rolled over and went down, carrying
with her to the bottom full complement
of four officers and forty men.
A couple of weeks before had visited
the Lusitania graveyard in a green church
yard in ireland. Our Consul there had
shown me a picture Of one great grave
with its rows of tiny collins, and if | had
felt disposed toward pity the memory Of
the damn themw that escaped his lips
would have stihed the last conjunction.
The Boche was reaping as he had sown.
A convoy had been reported as ap-
preaching our sector while we were in
conference and at its close the commander
asked: would you like to take flight"
Would II A flight in the war zone
guarding convoy against U-boats
Five minutes thereafter 1 emerged from
his Office clad in quilted, fur lined flying
suit and woollen boots, a full fedged
aviator as far as appearances go.
The planes were already launched, for
they fly always in pairs under strict
orders never to lose sight of each other.
With their golden fish bodies under the
wide stretched wings, barred by the red
and blue flying circles, they looked like
gay aquatic birds.
The sailor lad who filled the dual role
of observer and wireless operator was
ALREADY crouched in the cubbyhole in the
birds thick beak. Lest the wireless fail,
however, we took with us a small basket
of carrier pigeons to bring back word Of
the ever possible disaster.
The messages are written on thin paper
The sun. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1916-1920, 1918-07-21

and stuffed into tiny capsules strapped to
the pigeons leg. Sometimes the birds
pick them out, to provide for which posi-
bility one inventive genius suggested that
carriers be crossed with parrots with
view to delivering the message orally.
The basket with two pigeons was slowed
close to our feet Just forward Of the
pilots seat, where we could release them
with touch, two bombs hung in bracket.
The other plane, our consort, also car
ried on her bows quick firing swivel gun
that shoots a small explosive she'll She
was already spinning around the harbor
warming up her engines when we came
out, and while we followed suit the Off
Ger pilot delivered short lecture on the
clocks that indicate levels, air pressure
on the engine, propeller revolutions, and
had me peep into the cubbyhole, where
the observer crouched over the wireless
sender. After we rose he would let down
his aerial through small hole in the bot
tom, whereafter we should be in constant
A deafening roar as the propellers in
creased their beat to 1000 a minute,
dash of smarting spray in the face, the
sudden rise of bitter wind that quite
blinded me, marked our getaway. In
few seconds the great bird SCARED 500 feet,
then headed out to sea on long, sus-
tanned flight.
The day was cold in any case, and that
fierce wind chilled to the bone the flesh Of
my face. Soon it settled into numbnezs;
then, as my eyes grew accustomed to the
goggles, saw, far beneath, a line OF
white surf lace stretching along scanned,
black rocks, toy lighthouse in their
midst, golden beach; beyond all, dull
green plain scored with yellow roads that
led through toy hamlets past miniature
windmills and churches.
Very quickly all this vanished. There
remained only the sea, gray green through
a golden haze, chased and fretted with
tiny wavelets, across which we chased our
own shadow toward the indefinite hori-
zon. I had always thought Of gulls as
flying swift and high. But down there a
flock foated like bits of feather fluff, al
most stationary by comparison.
Can See U-boat Sixty Feet Down.
Rising out of his cubbyhole, the OBJ
server now began to sweep the waters be-
low with his binoculars, searching for
submarines. From plane the dark NOV
ing mass of a U-boat can be detected
sixty feet under the water, and though
so small, mere pinheads, mines are some
times seen.
Up there, with the roar Of engine and
propellers in ones ears, conversation Is
impossible. Though 1 shouted ct the top
of my voice for an experiment, I could
not hear myself. Sign language obtains,
and following the pilots finger / pres
emily saw, first, fleet of red sailed boats
that fish in security under protection of
the patrols; then a large ship. From
stem to stern she lay exposed to our gaze.
Just as though she were etched on the
water.
The convoy, however, was not in sight.
We swept about on a twenty mile circle,
and as We came roaring down the opposite
shore there suddenly emerged from
golden haze a number of vessels with
destroyers in the lead and a converted
yacht behind. We were still too high 70

he a do his share toward winning
the war. He has been called upon cor

men, but his latest effort is most
novel. He has purchased a knitting
machine and now in his spare time
turns out from three to five pairs of

open challenge that to- any nan in
