So far as I know there Is no ai cum to of Budiug the range of an aerowav of plane in motion. The popular hooting at a flying machine seems to be that of firing shells in a large circle, using the machine as the center, and then closing in until the aeroplane is dead in line. There is the uncertainty, however, of knowing when to time the shell to burst, and, so far as I can see. It seems to be pretty much a matter of luck. 1 heard an average quoted on tbe number of bits to the number of shells fired, and the figures were one hit out of every 3,000 shells. 1 cannot vouch for tbe accuracy of this statement, but I do know that the number f bits la surprisingly small. The . falling of tbe shrapnel from these shells which buret in tbe air is : tather dangerous, as I can show by aarratlng an Incident which happened to us. We were out hi a car near a village called Brandbook, and we noticed aa we came along that a German aeroplane was coming directly toward aa and that It appeared to be follow-la- g the road. Onr guns ware playing on it, and tbe shells seem-s- d to be bunting mighty doe to It Before It attained a point above us It tamed at right angles and made off toward tba German lines. We continued on our way, and a little farther on wo came to where an empty auto was standing In the middle of tbe road. We stopped and looked around for signs of the occupants, but could find none. When we had been there about flve minutes an officer and the driver of tbe car showed np and said they had been forced to take refuge in a dugout on account of tbe falling shrap- t I anti-aircra- ft anti-aircra- ft anti-aircra- ft nel. Holes where pieces of shrapnel bad entered the ground were to be seen all around, and we tried to dig some of the pieces up. We dug down ten inches and not reached them, so we gave t np as a bad Job and went on to camp Ibis will show that these pieces of shrapnel are not to be sneered at as being harmless. Another favorite stunt with aeroplanes la the dropping of hundreds of steel darts on bodies of moving troops nr even on towns or tbe men In tbe trenches. These darts are four or live inches lb length and have a sort of four pohjted tall. They are extremely sharp and are heavier at the point than they are at tbe taiL This causes them to fall point down. It has been proved that one of these darts dropped from a great height would. If It struck a man on horseback square on the top of the head, past through the length of a man's body, through tbe saddle, through the horse's body and disappear Into the ground. 1 have seen darts that have been dropped, but I have never been where they were falling, and I had no desire to be bad either. There was a German who pulled the greatest little game of bluff on us. We were at a village called Rbeningbelst when this fellow came over, and everybody remarked at bow low be was dying.

It was one of the nerviest things I ever saw. He saved himself by the chanre of running through oucflre. for when he was so low he was ouF of ruge of the guns. Air raids do not always prove as dangerous as they sound. About three or four days before I left the front we bad a dock of twenty-thre- e German aeroplanes over our camp, and they dropped bomba for nearly fifteen minutes. Everybody got under cover, and tbs total lost of Ufa caused by the raid on mule. If this were always case , the Zeppelins and Avatlka would have to go out of business.

I will never forget the last day I spent. at the front It seemed to me that the Germans must have put up a Job on me, and Just at the moment I was sure that 1 was coining out of It all right and that the war was over for me they were trying to get me. I was ordered to report with my car to one of our new offleeis. I did so, and we left for the firing line. When we reached the divisional signal office we left the car and mounted our horses to finish the Journey. We got to a place culled Krustadt and stayed there about half an hour. I hitched my horse to the gate of au old deserted bouse and went over to one of our ammunition columns to see if 1 could get some hot tea. When I came back about fifteen minutes later 1 found my poor horse down with his front leg gone A shell had exploded in the yard of this bouse aud had blown his leg clear off. There was nothing for me to do but to shoot him and put the poor beast out of his misery. I bunted around among the different units lu the vkiint.v until I found another horse, aud then I went up mid We visited reported to mv officer some of our batteries and came back to Krustadt. told me that be would not need me during tbe afternoon, but to meet him at 5 oclock that evening. We bitched our horses to a tree, aud the officer went off. Very goon after he had gone some more officers came along and hitched tbeir horses to the same tree. Altogether there were six tied to the one tree. I went over to the Royal Engineers place and proceeded to make myself at home. 1 was feeling happy, for I knew that this was my last day at the front, and I wag hoping to be home for Christmas. Of course I told everybody I met all about my good luck, and we were having a regular little farewell dinner, ouly we had tea Instead of champagne. After It was all over some of the boys went away, and 1 proceeded to make myself comfortable on a couch tbe fellowa had built up in the corner. I had been there about fifteen minutes when for some reason or other I got up and went over and sat down by I hadnt been off that the brazier. ouch three minutes when a shrapnel shell burst directly over the hut, and I should say fully twenty pieces came through the root.
