in a quarter of an hour this morning the anti-aircraft batteries stationed here spotted aeroplanes for which they could not ac- count.
Less than ten seconds after the blue-goggled man in one of the two sand- bagged observation posts had loudly shouted "Plane!" the guns werd manned.
I have seldom seen anything so quickly done, says a corres- pondent,
Five seconds later the barrels of those guns were following the course of a distant speek that was black against the white clouds towards the south.
Not until the planes had been Identified as friendly, or until-in one case it was out of range and ' hnd thus flown into celestial ter- ritory guarded by other batteries, did the men relax and return to the eldkitchen from which the alarms and called them,
DRY DUG-OUTS
The batteries which guard us here have been placed so that each corn- munds a completely circular range of visibility it would be hard to match In any part of our own country.
Around the emplacements the men have dug homes that will be theirs during the daytime until peace shall come again.
One of the dug-quis is called "Dirty Dick's," and a notice says that Tips are accepted here!"
Burled beside them, so that only their painted noses stick above the ground, are the complicated mecha- nisms that make the guns so accur~- ute.
Modern anti-aircraft gunnery is dicthted by a kind of mechanical "senior wrangler" that costs £3,000.
It is called a "predictor." It takes Into account such factors us speed and distance of enemy aircraft, direction of flight, direction of wind, height of target, temperature and all other factors that influence the pre- eise trajectory shell.
The battery 1 saw comes from Scotland, and most of its crew are Glasgow men. About half of them were Territorials.
JUST FOR FUN
And an enthusiastic crew they are., too.
When they first saw one of the German planes that was shot down the other day they loosed off at it just for the fun of the thing, even though it was far beyond their
range.

IN THE continued absence of a new "Tipperary" it has evi- dently become necessary to invent one.
At any rate, N.A.A.F.I-the Navy, Army, and Air Force Institutes have decided that all entertainments given to the troops at home and abroad shall be introduced by n song called "We must all stick together.".
It is suid to have a good to the enemy com-swinging tune and to have won the approval of Sir Seymour Hicks, the Controller E.N.S.A.

We must all stick together,
All stick together,
Never mind the old school tie.
United we shall stand
Whatever may befall,
The richest in the land,
The poorest of us all.
We must all stick together,
