GROWS IN A

TORTURED COUNTRY

The apparently suicidal

road which Rumania has A Picture of necessities of life. On top

taken has two main causes,

her geographical position between Germany and Russia, and the extra- ordinary ignorance of Rumanian public opinion.. Long before the Germans. took physical control, their pressure by threats had produced such a censor- ship that the country had very little idea not only of what was going on in the outside world but of what even its own leaders were

doing. The Rumanian broadcasts from London were, and still are, about- the only source of authen- tic news..

The appalling political massacre which has taken place recently shows the influence which Nazi methods have had on this

tortured country and the lack of any real control of the violent elements in it. Those men who were kill- ed were many of them men who knew too much about the Germans' plans.

The events in Rumania which have followed the Germans' loud declama- tions about the benefits of their new order in South-East Europe, have

But in Rumania, everywhere, is increasing evidence that this "new order" is going to be one of the most important factors in destroying Nazi Germany. Already the confusion which has re- sulted from German in- trigue is producing that dislocation of business and traffic which is most up- setting for the Germans.

The fear of Germany is growing steadily in all classes to bitter hatred. The magnificent fight

which the Grecks are mak- ing, the reports of British

successes which are filter- ing through, help to en- courage the suffering Ru- maniaus.

Private Life of a Private: Further Extract From the Diary of a Journalist in the Army

RUMMER - BOYS have

gone down in history as

a tough bunch. They hop from wheel to perilous wheel

of the War Machine and cover themselves with glory.

They are familiar with bayonets before they have learned to handle a safety

razor.

They are children of the storm.

It ኒና። rather shocking, therefore, to see a drummer with a glum face, sitting by the stove in the hut where we were rehearsing for the Camp Concert.

Behind him, two drummers -one with a cut knuckle, the other with a swollen lip-were indulging in sarcastic com- mentary,

"Curly's in love!" "That's it. Curly's in love with a Naffy girl."

Curly said nothing. He shrugged his shoulders and stared at the stove.

A huge Corporal with a mouth like a break-back rat- trap and the eye of an execu- tioner-a gaunt, grim, leather- "faced veteran of many cam- paigns, who for some dark reason is known as "Bears-

IT was obvious that Bears-

breath. also, knew the meaning of gloom; of the peculiar, brief, sudden gloom of the soldier, who, committed to the Army for many long years, occasionally thinks of soft beds and white table- cloths.

He took his pipe out of his mouth, and said: "Sup, son? Browned orf?" Curly did not

answer.

"Lost yer tongue, son?" "No," said Curly.

Then wassup?" "Nothing." "How old are ya, son?" "Sixteen."

"Sixteen when?" "To-day." "So that's it," said the Corporal; and tamped down the fiery ashes in his pipe with an insensitive finger. "Wan- na see ya ma an' pa. That it Curly shrugged.

"Get 'ny birthday presents, son?" "Nup."

"Dad in work?" "Nup." "Ma?" "Sick.".

"Life ain't all wine-gums and doughnuts, ya know," said

Bearsbreath. "I'm all right," said Curly.

BEARSBREATH left the

hut, and then returned. "Eeyar," he said; and dropped into Curly's lap a quarter- pound slab of nut-milk choco- late. "Many appery turns."

"Ta," said Curly.

"Alf a mo," said Corporal Bearsbreath; and fumbled un- der his blouse. "Like this?" He held up a canvas belt with money-potiches in it.

It was easy to see that this belt had gone

with him through all the vicissitudes of his hard forty years.

It was encrusted, from end to end, with dozens of glittering regi- mental badges and numerals.

Old soldiers treasure such belts, which often represent all that they have to show for a lifetime of soldiering.

Curly said "Coo!"

"I downnnit. You can 'ave it," said the Corporal, and stamped out of the hut.

"Let's look!" cried the two other drummers. "Let's see.”

"Ain't it a smasher?" said Curly, laughing and sulfling at the same time; while the Lad from the Elephant and Castle, wide-eyed, said: "Wot on earth como over ole Bears- breath?"

"Other children may cry but like my laxative-that's because mother gives me Castorla-it tastes so good! mmmh!"

DO YOU FORCE YOUR CHILD TO TAKE A LAXATIVE?

Does your child net up every time he has to take a lax- ative? Do

you have to force him to take it? Such scenca are apt to shock his entire nervous system. Children should get a laxative that fantes good one they take wili- inly! But not an adult laxative. A child's delicate system needs a special laxative-one that's mild, gentle and SAFE.
