The British Broadcasting
Corporation has kept busy in-
forming the peoples of other
nations on the progress of the
Allied forces in North Africa.
As is its habit, the BBC is do-
ing a whale of a good job. Its
news broadcasts have number-
ed eighty-seven daily, each
lasting ten or more minutes,
and they are in nineteen dif-
ferent languages. German,
Italian and French broadcasts
are made especially strong.
That they do reach some of
these enemy peoples—if the
French can be called enemies
—is revealed by protests from
those countries, and by the
fact that programs to counter
those of the British have been
initiated.
When the history of this war
is written, it will be recorded
that the radio played a major
part in its winning, that psy-
chological warfare proved al-
most as effective as that
waged by machines that dealt
death. From the outset, the
Germans knew the power of
the radio and even while they
exercised it for the dissemina-
tion of lies, they feared it so
much as a possible dissemina-
tor of truth that they prescrib-
ed dire penalties for any of
‘their people who dared to list-
en to a foreign broadcast.

Finish each day and be
done with it. You hare done
what you could—some blun-

crept in. Forget them as soon
as you can. Tomorrow is a

and with too high a spirit to
be encumbered with your old
nonsense.—Emerson.

“I Get It”
Don’t ask me—if I have it—just say—"Send It down”
And you—will surely—get It—if it is in this town—
Cause I—sincerely—want to get—the things—my cus-
tomers need—
And searching for—what I don't have—is part of—
my grocery creed.
Fresh meats—1 do not—keep In stock—but buy them
out—I do
And I give them—personal attention—and guarantee
—the best for yon—
So regardless—what your wants may be—in a first-
class pure food line—
Yon can get—exactly—wbat you want—by calling
Number Nine.
