Gun followed him and they
stood erect and looked around
them. Flares had been lighted on
the landing ground, and they could
see dark figures moving about.
! They listened intently.
The noise of engines came from
the air, rapidly drawing nearer and
nearer.
"Hulio" said Tommy suddenly.
That's queer!"
"What is?"
They're not coming back at all
at least, not yet. There's only
one plane coming, and it's a much
smaller one than either of those"
The sound of the engine drew
nearer, and presently even Guns
comparatively Impractical ear told
him that Tommy was right.
Over their heads the plane made
two or three circles, and then de-
scended.
"a good landingw commented
Tommy. THAT fellow knows his

the flashing of electric torches, and

was impossible to recognize any,
one. But, by following some of the
flashes, Gun could see that a small
party of people-four so far as he
could make out-Were moving to-
ward the living quarters. Presently
they disappeared through the
small gate.
But before that happened Gun
got something of a shock, for sud-
denly a voice said, extremely loud
ly, so that even at that distance
the words came quite clearly to
him:
well. thank goodness we're
here at laSt!
Gun gave a sharp exclamation.
whats the matter?" asked
Tommy.
Didn't you hear that voice."
Gun asked. There's woman in

"Well! Women do fly sometimes,

The crew left the plane stand
ing, her nose pointing to the north,
and went back into the yard.
Shortly afterward they reappeared,
this time pushing out another ma
chine.
There you are" said Tommy.
There's our old friend again"
And so it was.
Men were busy about the planes
until darkness fell, and Gun and
Tommy cursed because they could
see no more. They had, for the mo-
ment, even forgotten their ration
of bread and water.
They remembered it later, and
sat and ate it while they watched
faint lights moving about the two
planes. The lights We're, however,
so faint that they could distinguish
nothing. Then, just as they had fir
ished eating, there came some con-
fused shouts, which sounded like
orders and responses, and then the
sudden roar of first one engine and
then another.
They listened family as first one
machine and then the other took
off. There came some faint cheer
ing, and then the sound of the en-
gines gradually fading as the two
machines zoomed upward and out
ward into the darkness.
They're flying together and, so

I wonder what the game is-an eX-
