Here . . not only in the field is the world's' only telephone link with Newfoundland. This picture was taken in the over- seas telephone room of the Montreal. Johns, Newfoundland circuit, Bell Telephone long distance centre in During a telephone conversation through this Montreal-St. voice echoes are eliminated and a "special inverter' makes the voice current unintelligible to anybody who might attempt to listen in with a radio set. A conversation be- tween any point on the continent and New foundland must pass through this control terminal equipment. When Silence Was Golden This is the story of a little Norwe- gian girl, told me by her father, Lieu- tenant Eric Petersen of the Norwegian Air Force: "Gerda was only eight when the Germans first came to Norway. They killed her mother, I went away soon after to edit an underground paper in enother city. The work was too dan- gerous to have Gerda with me, so I left her with my friend Knut. Two years later I was brought back by the Gestapo--to a sentence of death. When Knut told Gerda, she just bit her lip and asked if she could see me. They obtained a permit and she came to the prison. "At the moment when the guard un- locked my door to take me to the visitors' cell, the warden summoned him. Telling me to go directly there, the guard left me alone. As I walked toward the end of the passage, I saw two visitors just leaving. I followed them casually. The guards supposed I was merely another visitor for I was still in civilian clothes. "When we came to the anteroom I saw Gerda sitting tensely on one of the high benches, her toes pointing to- ward the floor, her hands gripping the edge. For a minute I lost all hope. She was too young, had too much needing of her father, to realize that she mustn't recognize me. "She leaned forward eagerly, start-, ed to smile. I looked straight at her and winked ever so slightly. Her eyes opened wide. I was sure she was going _ to speak. Then she put her hand to her mouth and bit it hard! -. smarted, but I walked on. -- My eyes "Gerda stayed in that prison for three hours after I left. The guards discovered I had gone in about an hour, but told her nothing. Every once in a while she would trot soberly up to them and ask please might she see her father now. When they final- ly told her visiting hours were over, she kept up the game and cried bitter- ly. "Gerda went home to Knut and said that the warden would not let her see me, nothing more. The Gestapo ques- tioned her three times, but couldn't trap her. "Knut, aware that something had happened, soon heard that I was gone. It was time for him to leave, too, so he smuggled Gerda to England with him. Not until they were both com- pletely safe did she tell Knut the story. 'It was easier just to make be- lieve I didn't kno,' Gerda explained." --Helen Adams Frame in "This Week" Foreman--Say, my good man, that fellow there is doing twice as much work as you are. Toiler--Sure! I keep telling the poor sap, but you can learn him nothing. Mrs. Himes--Hasn't your husband any hobbies? Mrs. Grimes--No. He has rheumatiz a good deal, and hives now and then, but he ain't never had no hobbies. Friend (visiting)--Why did you take an apartment with such a small kitchenette? Bridegroom--Well, keep it quiet. The kitchenette is so small I can't get in there to help the wife with the Mother Shipton's Prophecy London, England, 1448 (Reprinted by Request) A House of Glass shall come to pass, In England, but alas, War will follow with the work In the land of the Pagan and the Turk; And State and State in fierce strife Will seek each other's life. But when the North shall divide the South. An Eagle shall mouth. Carriages without horses shall go And accidents fill the earth with woe, Primrose Hill in London shall be And in its centre a Bishop's See; Around the world thoughts will fly In the twinkling of an eye. Waters shall yet wonders do, Now strange, shall yet be true; The world upside down shall be, And gold found at the root of a tree; Through hills man shall ride, And no horse nor ass be by his side; Under water men shall walk, Shall ride, shall sleep, shall talk; In the air men shall be seen In white, in black, in green; Iron in the water shall float As easy as a wooden boat; Gold shall be found, and found In a land that's not now known. Fire and water shal] more wonders do, England shall at last admit a Jew; The Jew that was held in scorn Shall of a Christian be born. Three times three will lovely France Be led to dance a bloody dance Before her people shall be free. Three tyrant rulers shall she see, Three times the people rule alone, Three times the people's hope is gone. Three rulers in succession see, Each springing from a different dynasty. Then shall the worser fight be done, England France shall be as one. --(Contributed by a Mirror Reader) build in the Lion's 25 - 40 and 60 watt Inside frosted ] 5c Each Phone 460 HYDRO LAMPS Hydro Shop ----3 Sonny -- What is daddy? a pedestrian, Daddy--It is a person with a wife, daughter, two sons and a car, Those Old Shoes May last a long time after we have repaired them.
