But very soon dear friends, wen have to go back home The best of a1i the places Wherever you may roam.

Boom! Boom! Boom!
Those three bombs were a good bit
nearer than the last one had been.
Hank to that now!' cried Mrs. Bow
Ter; and the couple did not stand
upon the order of their going.
Poor old things! Jock felt glad they
only had a few hundred yards to go
before they would be safe in Trafal-
gar Square Tube.
AS for him, he began leaping up
the steep bare stone steps of the IRON
rallied staircase. There were five high
stories. but he was in fine condition,
and he felt, while he was finding his
tiny keyhole, as cool as a cucumber.
AS he pushed open the door, he
struck match, and shielding the tiny
quivering flame with his hand, he
walked forward into his living room,
and found the coat for which he had
come up again. Then he blew out the
match, put the coat on, and went across
to the one window. From there he
stared down at old Father Thames, the
one thing London can't black out.
Maybe it would be best to wait a
few minutes? The barrage had died
down as suddenly as it had begun
That meant dogfight was going on
above the clouds. Pleasant to be down

Jock knew he owed a whole week S
honeymoon leave to the Royal Flying
Cross he had received today at Buck
ingham palace from the hands of the
king. The honor had pleased his squad
ron leader, it may be whispered, more
than it had pleased himself, for owing
to the royal investiture his wedding
had had to be put off "a hours.
At times, today, Jock Benson had
felt half frightened at the thought
that alone, among millions of young
men, this terrible war had brought
him good fortune He was now &c. and
as he stood there, staring down at
the ghostly looking gray waters of the
river, he recalled the past.
Queer thing, life! Three years ago
he had been a Woodworking partner
in a not over-successful business, with
flying as his one hobby. And he had
done a crazy, at the time it had
seemed an irreparable, thing! Pity be-
ing akin to love, he had married a
