“FERRY HOIS'
HAVE PERILOUS
AERIAL DUTIES
Somewhere In England.—Several
American airmen have recently been
put on duty as special “ferry pilcts”
between England and France This
is very important work, consisting
mainly of taking new war airplanes
” | over the Channel in all weathers
to points where they are needed at
j the front. The task is not difficu"
j ir f-re weather, but in btd weather
| it is sometimes very difficult and
dangerous. Whether the weather
j is bad or good, the machines needed
at the front ust go without delay.
On a recent day, chilly ».'j io
scure, one of the American “f^.-y
men” was ordered to tak> a new
, scout fighter to an aerodrome close
to the front line in Northern France.
The clouds were so low and the
haze so pronounced that the far end
; of the flying ground was barely
visible- The pilot thought he might
scrape through by flying low and
chancing possible engine trouble.
After he set off, he found mat
ters even worse than he thought.
At 200 feet, objects below were
scarcely visible; at 300 feet he could
see nothing. He made a circuit of
the aerodrome, and might have land
ed again, except that the American
pilots have a distaste for admitting
that anyhing is impossible.

He rose to 350 feet and was en
veloped in cloud. It was now too
late to land, for he had lost the
aerodrome, and if he were to come
down to look for a good field he
might hit a neighboring cliff or fac
tory chimney. The only thing to do
was to keep on his compass course,
and climb up above the clouds, and
after flying for about half an hour
to glide down gradually through
them in search of a landmark.
At 3,000 feet he found himself
above the clouds and in the midst
6f' bright morning sunshine. The
half-hour passed and the pilot had
to make up his mind to dive back
down through the clouds.
The luck suddenly decided it in
the shape of a small gap in the
cloud, through which he caught a
glimpse of the green fields of France.
Without hesitation, he shut off his
engine and dived through the gap.
By good fortune the clouds here
were higher than on the English
side, but it was raining hard.
He switched on the engine again
below the clouds and sailed along
at a comparatively low altitude
through the rain, picking up land
marks by which he chose his course.
Thence it was comparatively plain
sailing, and in a short time landed
at the depot aerodrome and housed
his machine.
Chisana residents who have oc
casion to visit the raiload town
of McCarthy claim that prices there
are like mountain sheep in the Chis
anana district. When anyone comes
along they climb higher.
