FUEHRER

The following story emanates from Berlin.

A German commercial firm had been doing badly. Their agenta were not guting order's and had so li.tle to do that one sat in the office, writing.

His employer asked him angrily what he was doing. why he was not seeking busi-

ness.

"I'm writing to Herr Hitler." the agent replied, “telling him that if he wants any more ter- Etory he can have mine."

WOODEN

CROSSES

How the World War changed a young French student who joined the Army, full of patriotism, into a brute and bully is the story of "Wooden Crosses," now at the Alhambra Theatre.

Instead of being willing to die for his country the young student learns self-perservation and mocks rt those who are willing to take untold chances. He becomes ob- sessed with the idea that the Vic- Rothschild" toria Cross will not be his but that he will eventually have nothing except a "Wooden Cross."
