roads leading to Metz were crowded
with Lorrainers on their way to the city
to raise their voices there for Marshal
Petain and for France. People unaccus-
toned to any tongue other than the Ger

had been chained during the night and
into them had been put band with this
inscription; "Sic transit gloria mundi.'
