MIXED.
“Even in the A.I.F. there ’ are some mixed types.”—S.M. Herald.” Take Romeo 0. Smidtkoffvitch, An Australian of the third generation, though actually born in N.Z., he has a lot of Sqptch caution, some Irish wit, a touch of English phlegm, and plenty of British courage. He has had German measles, done a good deal of Russian about, is a Turk to his womenfolk, likes Spanish onions and Swedes, and Dutch cheese, has one eye of Belgian glass, and being a bit laze, is inclined to * Pole on people who will let him. He took French leave from the camp, would not Dane to excuse himself, and that proved his Finnish. He’s mixed, all right. * * ♦
