for the Italian front, via Rome.
On the platform beside the sleep
ing car stands an odd collection of
persons. A tall. splendid looking man
in tennis clothes, and a tall. hand
some woman. are chatting with two
elderly ladies'. About the group,
standing at respectful distances are
five young men, holding their high
silk hats in their hands and looking
very hot in their frock coats.
The conductor blows his horn The
two elderly women bend their knees
to the tall graceful woman and to
the tall man. The young fellows with
the silk hats do the same and kiss
the womans hand You pile into the
sleeping car, following the distin-
guished tall couple and off you start
for the Italian front.
That's the brother of the king of
Greece" the conductor tells you. later
in the evening. when he collects your
ticket. That's Prince George. He
was an exile from Crete. you know
until Venizelos got out of Office. and
now he's going back again He US
ually travels in a private car but
there are no private cars in war time
and so he's travelling with us"
In the morning well get a news

and a secretary are in the car. It's
just the same as if you were travel
ing in a private car with Prince
George.
There isn't any dining car on the
train. on account of the war. Prince
George looks as hungry as you are.
He's standing out in the aisle, look
ing at dreary mountains.
Finally, we come to a station;
there's coffee there, in big thick cups
and war bread. The valet goes out
and gets some for Prince George.
After everybody has had coffee and
bread. standing up in the narrow isle
you think it's time to commence.
You go to the secretary. who's sit

of the window and tell him who you
are and what you want

doesn't say this but he looks it. He
goes up the aisle and talks to the
prince; he comes back and tells you,
The prince has nothing to say"
You explain to the secretary that
you didn't take the trip just because
the prince did. You tell him you are
on your way to the Italian frontier
and that you thought you might as
well interview the prince as not. see
