Show The Sound of Shrapnel. Have you ever heard shrapnel, by any chance? No? Well, it sounds as much as anything else like a winter gale howling howl-ing through the branches of a pine tree. It Is a moan, a groan, a shriek, and a wail rolled into one, and when the explosion ex-plosion comes it sounds as though someone some-one had touched off a stick of dynamite under a grand piano. And it Is not particularly par-ticularly cheering to know that the ones you hear do not harm you, and that it Is the ones you do not have time to hear that send you to the cemetery. Scrib-ner's. |
