SOMEWHERE IN' FRANCE—Jan.
14.—The anti-aircraft barrage is to
day the most dreaded enemy weapor
which the airman has to face in his
flights over the lines. In the midst
of a sea of bursting shells, the air
plane bobs up and down like a ship
| In a violent storm. The concussions
| which the shells make in bursting
produce a swift succession of air poc
kets and air bumps, and it is abso
lutely impossible to keep a machine
I steady through them. Meanwhile
j there is the strain of knowing always
| that the next instant one of the thous
| ands of fying shell splinters may reach
J a vital spot in either machine or pi
lot.
Yet it is not possible to avoid fly
ing through a barrage at time. The
latest type of anti-aircraft guns can
place a barrage as high as 23,000 feet,
and it is not practical to turn about
and try to climb over the barrage.
It takes a very highly specialized
scout machine to climb to 23,000 feet,
and the heavier machines cannot
achieve that altitude under anv cir
j cumstances.
| The longer the airman desitates to,
1 run the barrage, the longer he is ex-1
I posed to the fire. Anti-aircraft gun
nery at the front has now reached a
point where the range is calculated to!
a nicety almost instantaneously by j
processes of triangulation and, there
fore, the flyer who hesitates is lost. I
The only thing he can do is to take
his chance, just as a ship at sea takes I
a storm and accepts its chances of!
weathering the gale.
Next to the barrage, the most fear
ed of the ground defenses is thej
“cluster.” This is a group of six anti-j
aircraft shells, sent up togetheF„s»nd!
placed just ahead of the machine,!
with one shell aimed to burst the tip j
of the fuselage, two on each side of j
It. two on each side just ahead, andj
one farther and directly ahead.
The side-slip is the favorite protec
tion against these “clusters.” The an
ti-aircraft gunners get their range
nowadays so accurately that the
slightest move out of range is fairly
certain to get the machine out of
danger way—unless the gunners have
anticipated this move, as they some-^
times do, by placing another cluster
at the most likely spot for an expect
ed side-slip.
The side-slip is produced by tipping
the plane down slightly, and while
flying ahead, slithering over sideways,
and down thus changing the range
without seeming to do so, for the gun
ner looking up see as much of the
machine as before and is justified ia
estimating its height to be the same.
In reality the machine is a little to
one side and several hundred feet low-|
er as the result of his skillful side
sup.
Below a height of 5,000 feet anti
aircraft guns cannot be used to ad
vantage, but machine-guns and rifles
provide equally dangerous enemies. A
machine-gun playing a stream of 500
bullets a minute is no mean foe, even
though the bullets are not explosive.

New pay has been found on Boob
creek, Tolstoi district John Runkle,
who has been working a lay on a claim
on the first tier of benches opposite
3-b creek claim, on ground owned by
Dave Strandberg, discovered the pay.
Ten pans were taken from the last
dirt of a 70-foot hole, producing in all
50 cents. The pay is from five to six
feet above bedrock. The gold is coarse
with 30 feet of gravel. This is thought
to be the continuation of the Boob
creek pay streak, 3-b creek claim hav
ing been thoroughly crosscut without
anything having been found. The only
ground that has produced pay on this
creek is the Grier fraction and the
upper 400 feet of 2-b. creek clean,
both owned by Riley and Monier.
