ELIZABETH TIBBLES

is the author of this article, one of an occa- sional series entitled, "Women in Wartime.”

TT was a short, official- looking printed post- card. It did not. interest me much as it lay on the mát.

But then it's difficult to he very interested in any- thing when for three months your only son has been reported ""Miss- ing, Believed Killed," when the little desperate hope in the one word. "Missing" is beginning to fade at last..

He Is Prisoner of War

You begin to have all sorts of weird suspicions: You read sinister meanings into the most innocent remarks.

Last autumn, for instance, I was convinced for a time that although he was obvious- ly writing his own letters they were being dictated to him.

They just did not sound like Ted. He who had been mak- ing me a special allowance out of his army pay and who had. always been such a thoughtful was writing for huge son, quantities of foodstuffs and I picked it up, barely cigarettes he knew I could not glancing at it.

Strange words caught my eye-STALAG XXA, Germany.

Then I read the mes- sage that has brought nothing but sorrow to hundreds of wives and mothers but. which I had never even dared to hope

for.

"He Is Well"

All it told me was that Ted was a prisoner of war, though someone in the busy offices of the International Red Cross had found time to add in his own handwriting the three words, "He is well."

How he came to be taken prisoner I-shall-not- know until the war is over and won, for that is, one of the things a prisoner does not write about, one of the many questions that cannot be answered for months, perhaps for years.

The hardest thing of all is that it is almost impossible to imagine the kind of life he is leading in Germany, and to write to him without mention- ing the war-or even the weather until it's out of date.

afford to buy.

He even naked for some of the things I knew he did not like.

Suspicions

One of my letters told him. that we had moved to another address. I never thought of and. the fears

suspicions which that might put into his mind until months later I got his reply.

"I hope there are no bomba near," he said, "and that the old home is still standing."

no

But then I had never spoken to him about air raids. I had idea how much news of home he was getting.

Even now

know. I do whether he gets his news from official German bulletins, or from the Swiss and American representatives of the Inter- national Red Cross who visit the camps.

What a welcome those neu- tral visitors must get from hundreds of British Tommies starved for news of home!

Who are his friends? What does he do with himself all day? What. does he get to cat? How does he spend his leisure time?

These are the questions I aak in my letters to Ted.

Jig-Saw Puzzle

Only a few of them get an swered. But gradually, letter by letter, I am beginning to

get a shadowy picture of his life. It's rather like piecing- together the bits of a jig-saw puzzle.

.

Now that spring has come he will be going to work on the roads-heavy work for a lad who has never done that kind of thing before, but I'm glad all the same.

I could tell from his letters written during the long win- ter months that the idleness was worrying him, that time was hanging heavy on his hands, !

His last letter was full of good news. He has grown to 5 feet 10 inches and weighs 11 stone again-at first he had gone down to nine stone.

And the Red Cross food parcels are getting through regularly after all these months of delays, though they are arriving in bulk instead of as parcels for individual pri-

soners.

Another World

People are full of sympathy for me because my only son is a prisoner of war. Yet I think I speak for hundreds of mothers who had mourned their boys as dend when I say that, so long as he has enough to eat and clothes to wear, I am not worrying about Ted.

It's strange to have your son living almost in another world, but I think of those thousands of other boys who will never come back, and I know then that I am lucky.

I may have to wait months, perhaps even years, but one day Ted will come home.
