I'm not going to say anything more
about your home I'm going to talk OF
their homes and you may draw the
comparison for yourself II you want to.
There are three kinds of homes In
Belgium, the one In the comparatively
undestroyed city that the German
tried to keep for himself; the home in
the shelled and fired village, and the
home In No Mans Land. Oh. yes.
there are homes there. But wait. we
cannot be omnipreseut: we must visit
one place at q time.

they advertise. There's the house to
which we are going-that one where

doors of their homes. So far you have
seen only one side OF the door-the
outside. But the people are expecting
us and we go into the drawing room.
You must not notice that the doors
have no knobs. They were brass and
