I SUPPOSE I'm an

Your goal is a hundred miles: twenty minutes, or, with a following wind, even less than that; and for twenty minutes-a breath or a life- time in an airman's existence -you have opportunity to test your armour; to try a few quick tricks, perhaps, to make sure the ship is as always. as ready to your hand, eye and heart, as a blood horse about to start-for-the-Derby.-

machine, giving it an roar of power, a thickened vibra- tion, an eagerness that is like the straining of hounds on a leash..

But you don't think-until after- wards the swift impressions regis- tered on your brain are developed, like a sensitized plate.

AIR-LIFE to-day is all anti- elpation and almost grudë- ing retrospect. There is no pre- sent; because, the present flows past you at three hundred miles an hour; to become a blurred past before you appreciate its existence.

If you have listened to a broadcast describing enemy savagery and atrocily, you pro- bably, start your patrol with a fury of haired · blizing, Inside you; an Incoherent determination to square the deal with the murderous Iun.
