PRIEZ POUR LUI
A refugee recently arrived from Britanny states that in every vil- the lage church, at the end of service, the priest says simply to the congregation; "Priez pour lui" -pray for him. Every head is bowed in prayer for the success of General de Gaulle. If an irate Nazi official calls on the priest to explain who is "lu" the priest replies that he may be anyone, for everyone has someone they pray for.
