your mother so happy; they're grand!
The salesman hustled away to wrap
Up the diamonds before his customer
could change his mind and lose him
his commission. While he was gone.
Ivy was murmuring:
Funny. isn't it? I came in to buy
my mother birthday present, too.
Poor mamma (accent on the second
syllable) = all her life she's been
dreaming about diamond ring from
Pelletier's or one of the other fashion
able stores. Silly of her. wasn't it? She
might aswell have asked for the moon.
She's never seen this place, but back
home - in Wisconsin - she'd read
their advertisements in magazines and
point out the things she'd buy if only
she could. But she never could, never
even hope for anything from Pelle-
tiers.
'And I'd say. You just wait,
Mamma. some day I'll be rich and I'll
load you down with their old dia-
monds.' 1t was just a family joke.
But it was never a very funny joke to
me. Poor mammals fingers would look
funny in diamond ring. They're all
-coarsened with working themselves to
the bone for her children.
"Well, one day left home and came
East to get rich quick. Funny. how
easy that looks from Wisconsin! But
I've been saving what pennies l could
spare and at last l thought l had
enough to get at least a ring lit up
with teentsy-weentsy chip chip of
a diamond in a Pelletier box to send
to mamma. But the cheapest ones
they have are far beyond me, and I've
Just found that Pelletier's won't sell
anything on the instalment plan. Poor
mamma! Poor me! But why should l
bore you with all this?"
Nicky was not bored and he never
suspected the real Why. He would have
been glad to toss Trina's friend
solitaire for her poor old mother. but
that would have looked ostentatious
and insolent. However, he could say:
Don't you worry another moment.
I'll tell these people to let you take
what you want and give you all the
time you want to pay for it,"
Ivy managed to restrain her cry of

Troops Cheered

The drill, in Harms Park, lasts
from $3.50 p. m. to 1918 p. m. and
concludes with a march around
the park while singing German
songs, principally "Ich HIATT Einen
Kameraden" q Had a Faithful
Comrade) Three "heils" for the
Bund, Hitler and the Vaterland
are given at the close.
The following night I attended
the weekly public meetings at
Bund headquarters and see the
pomp and pageantry of Nazi Ger
many unfolded in a sound movie
of the annual party congress at
Nuremberg. The picture was
taken on September 5, 1885, and
starts with the arrival by plane of
Der Fuehrer Adolf Hitler at the
Nuremberg airport. The audience
of about 400 men and women ap-
plauds loudly at the sight of Hitler.
The film swings into action with
the marching and singing of
thousands of colorful troops and
the hysterical waving, cheering
and saluting of many more thou
sands of men, women and children
who block the space on both sides
of the parade.
Storm troopers, steel helmets,
officers. flags and banners all pass
in splendid and gay procession.
Der Fuehrer stands at attention
in front of an official auto man.
ned by high ranking officers. Hit
Ter shows a wiStful smile as he
extends his right arm repeatedly
in salute. His face becomes seri-
Gus during later highlights of the
film.
The military splendor of the day
serves as an introduction to the
spectacle by night with flaming
torches Illuminating Nazi flags
and powerful floodlights bringing
to life enormous sWaStika emblemS
on walls and pillars. The steel of
helmet and gun catches the rays
of light and casts glittering re-
Elections over the entire scene.
Grandeur Is Secret
Time and again the camera
focuses on a single face-usually
a German youth-and the ecstasy
in his eyes, the taut lines of his
face clearly reveal a mind immune
to all except Der Fuehrer and his
symbol of might, the swastikA.
The audience sits Spellbound
throughout. I must confess that
even I, sworn citizen and former
government officer of the United
States, feel deeply moved. Here.
I think, lies the secret of Ger
many's SucceSs-in Germany and
America-the emotional appeal Of
military grandeur.

AROUSED TO TERROR
The two earlier raids occurred
between 2 a. m. and 1880 a. m.
Sleeping Cantonese were aroused
to terror as Chinese anti.aircraft
