SCHOOI. Nl,-XG.-XZINl'Q OI-' SIiI.WYN HOITSIQ SCHOOI, A FLIGHT WITH RICHTHOFEN AND THE FLYING CIRCUS Ted jones was a lflight-I,ieutenant in the Royal Air Iforce. He had just landed from the dawn patrol in a Sopwith Camel, a single seater lighting machine, much used in the Royal Air Force. Ted was lying on his bed, reading some letters, which he had just received from home, when he was interrupted by an orderly, who told him that the Major wanted to see him. Immediately Ted put down the letters, went to the lNIajor's quarters, and in fifteen minutes he was ushered into the otlice. The Major was still busy over some papers when Ted entered and saluted, soon, however, he looked up and told him to draw up a chair. He then informed Ted that one of his spies had just arrived from across the lines and brought back some very important news. The Major handed Ted a piece of paper, which read like thiszf HBUAIII BRITISH .IIRIJROME .1'To,4?o lVElJ1VE.S'IJ,IY MORNING: FO UR GUTII.-l.X', IVITII SI I' .II,B.ITRO.S'.X' .N'CUL7'I'.N' .IS E.N'CURT.N' .IND FIVE OF THE RED NONEIJ FUKKERS IVHICH RICHTHOFEN ll'ILL LE.ID. Ted and all the others turned in early that night so as to be lit when morning arrived. Ted awoke at half.past three. He quickly dressed and rousing the others ran over to the hangars where his bus stood. First he overhauled his twin Vickers, and putting in some extra belts of ammunition, filled the gas tank and saw that his engine was right. .-Xt half past four all the engines were running smoothly, and in ten minutes Ted took off, the others followed, and getting into formation they set otfin search of the enemy. Ar tive o'clock they encountered the enemy, Ted shot a green light from his verey pistol and his squadron spread out S into fan-wise formation. They were now up about eighteen thousand feet. The enemy had not seen their approach and at another signal from Ted the British planes dived 100 feet below with machine guns firing and then zoomed up under German planes. Two .-Xlbatrosses fell out of formation and one big Gotha went down in a stream of flames, then it was every man for him- self. Ted picked out a red-nosed Fokker, pulled back on the joy-stick for height, and then, just as she was about to stall and fall into a spin, he shoved his nose down and firing his machine guns as he went, dived upon his enemy, and after two hundred rounds the enemy plane burst into Hamesg the air was alive with roaring planes, some falling, others still struggling to obtain supremacy. Rat-a-tat-tatl Ted felt a sharp pain in his right arm, and it hung loosely. He looked back and saw a German Fokker with a red nose coming towards him,then he fainted. YVhen he came to, he found that he was joy-rushing down at a terrible speed. llneonsciously he pulled the stick back and eased oil' the throttle, and shoved her into a glide. He must have fainted again. All this time the Fokker was buzzing around him. Seeing that his enemy was hit, he approached within fifty yards and looked at Ted, who had just recovered consciousness again, but the German instead of attacking, side- slipped and headed back over the lines. Ted landed at his aerodrome about an hour after he had taken off. He was told that all Gothas were driven down in Hames and that only one Albatross and two Ifokkers had returned home, and that only two of his pilots had been killed. DoNALD GALLOWAY
