“If you want to imagine -what this war is like,” says an English correspondent in a letter received in Auckland, “remember the last one —and then forget it. Then remember the ‘jitters’ of September, 1938, and forget those, too. Then get a quiet acceptance of the fact that we are in a war, after all, and that we will, definitely, win it. Add to this a splash of apprehension as to what the air raid will be like when it comes, and you have the atmosphere of the new war. The normal opinion is that Hitler has got to be stopped, that we are the only ones really able to do it, and so it has to be done.”
Lovers of art pottery, fancy chinas, crystalware and glassware should inspect the new season’s stocks if useful articles and novelties now showing at B. Dixon's Ltd., Tainui Street. The selection is large and varied and the prices reasonable. You are invited to inspect these Christmas gift goods at your leisure.—Advt.
