The condition of the fruit will have much to do with the quality of | the product. Berries should be gath- ¢red in shallow trays or baskets and| not in deep vessels which allow them to be bruised and crushed. They should be uniformly ripe, sound, and as larg possible, After the berries have been sorted carefully and washed lightly by plac- ing in a colander and pouring water over them, instead of immersing them im water, pack as closely as possible | without crushing. This can be done better by putting a few berries into the jar, pressing them gently into plece, and proceeding layer by layer, than by nearly filling the jar loosely and then trying to press them down, Fill jars full of fruit and cover with hot sirup.

Inotead, he held the nose of the machine to- ward the ground, Boon it became apparent that the pilot had reconsidered, for I noticed that we were swinging back over the foe's lines. As we neared the ground 1 saw that some of our men wer engaged in consolidating parts of a position they had taken, The men in the trenches waved their helmets at us, and just then a volley of bullets came up through the os, making a noite like @ snare mas they split the canvas, After that we headed for general head- quarters, where, on making my re- port, I once more relapsed into un- consciousness. When next I was consctous I found n the field dreasing station, » bandaging iny head, and id me that my skull had been fractured by a bullet. I was wriven the anti-tetanus treatment, and five d r was an inmate ‘of a hospital on the French coast, the stitution in question being presided over by the Duchess of Westminster, I was operated upon twice and each time pieces of bone had to be re- moved, I was unconscious the greater part of the time, One morning I awoke in another place and learned upon inquiry that I was in @ hospital in Bngland and that within a fey days I would have to undergo another operation, “rhe next time T came to my. senses I had been operated upon, but found that I 1 neither hear, see nor talk. I was very weak and seemed unable to think rationally, ‘The slightest effort 1 made at reasoning caused some of the factors which I wished bring into relation with one another to recede from my grasp, With my senses of sight and hearing gone, I had to rely entirely upon my sense of touch, I could feel the nurses doing things around my bed, but aside from that no external im. pressions came ta me. For two weeks that continued. My ved bad meanwhile been placed against the wall in a ward known as the Turner Ward. I felt that windows and doors had been opened for the purpose of alring the room. Sud- @enly a door near me was shut with a bang. I did not hear that bang, of course, but I fait the vibrations of it, which caused mo tv jump, and as I did this I saw of a sudden two rows of beds on eituer side of the room. A nurse Was coming toward me, The sano instant my powers of speech returned, As I looked at the thought came to me that po: was mistaken in all this, I had Broped about in the darkness so long that [ was now doubting the very things I beheld. “Are you wearing a white apron and a blue dress?” I asked the nurse, Instead of answering my question, the woman ran off, and I heard her call a doctor, Within thirty minutes I was once more on the operating table, When the effect of the anesthetics left me, I was indeed grateful to di cover that the senses which had de. sorted me for a while were still with me.

PON my discharge from the hospital I reported to the gen eral in charge tn England, and he, after reading the report of my case, advised me not to fy any more. It took considerable plead- ing on my part to induce the officer to retain me In the service For the time being I was to be seat te @ wohool of instruction, where I Was to be initiated in the art of oper- ating a machine myself. ‘The course I was to take included the theories of aviation, construction of machine fight rigging, operation and general flying and mechanics as applied to air Motors, To this were added moteoro- logy and physics, bombing, and such things as wire splicing and the other Uttle odds and ends one has to know in order to keep an airplane in good trim.

After passing my examination, I was sent back to France to learn practical flying with the Royal Naval Air Service Squadron. I was gratl- fied to find that it did not take m long before I could handle a ma- chine, On my second flight I tried my best to break the squadron's altitude record, which was then 11,000 fect. up for nearly two hours, and Jevation of 10,500 feet went the revolution co. . That did not worry me, however, The engine showed no sign of hav-~ ing been Impatred and kept on run- inter. ning. 1 decided to clin some more I was quite a way above th cloudy in the eternal blue, when all of sudden the engine stopped. Well, that made lot of difference, There are no places in the air to which one can throw an anchor, so there was nothing that could prevent my coming down suddenly. T tried to locate the trouble, but found that keeping the machine on &n even keel would occupy me en- rely without giving any attention to the motor, I began to dive.

I was through that bed of dense and damp mists before I knew what had hap- pened, but I had sense enough to keep iy eyes open for the aerodrome or some other convenient spot on which to land. Just how I would land worrled me conmiderably, I wanted to do as little damage as possible, There were hundreds of machines in this aerodrome, Many of them would b standing about the ground and others might be on the win Fortunately, no machines came into my path.

Leaving Paris in the direction of our aerodrome one han to fy over & forest which offers no oppurtunitios at all for landing.
