A Doughboy's Ambitions and How They
Worked Out

Ambition has been walked into life in the
Ambition to better themselves in life to do some-
thing better than they ever did it before; to do
something which requires more skill and intelli-

service. He had a soft job" He went to work

day night on a orty-eight-hour fight,
is believed to have been struck by
lightning.
wreckage Of the airship, which was
Of the nonrigid type and which had
been engaged in observation work
near Cromer for the mine sweepers,
was washed ashore at Cromer yester-
day.
The airship exploded and crashed
into the sea in flames a half hour
after midnight Tuesday morning.
Second Explosion Seen.
According to eyewitnesses OF the
disaster, a second explosion took
place as the aircraft was falling into
the sea, where the mass Of wreckage
doated on the surface and burned for
some hours afterward.
There was a heavy thunderstorm
raging at the time, and the SUPPOSE
ton is that the NS-11 was struck by
lightning.
The dirigible, which was one Of the
smaller type, was built to carry a
crew Of ten or twelve persons, but
according to the latest reports there
were only two officers and FIVE men
aboard at the time OF the disaster.

remaining in the air on one occasion
for more than four days and covering

which was undertaking a trial in
