After five years and four months
of savage existence under the Ger
mans, Warsaw, the first capital OF
Europe to fall before the victori-
GUS armies of Adolf Hitler, has
been freed.
During the years since Hitler
plunged the world into the present
conflict. Warsaw has Withstood two
long and bloody sieges. On Sep
TENDER 27. 1889, the city fell to
the Germans after 20 days of epic
resistance during which the Nazis
released their total war; against
the ancient capital high on the
west bank of the Vistula.
On August /, 1914, Polish patriots
within the city, fired by the ap-
proach of the Russian army, rose
in revolt against the Germans. The
Russians failed to break through
the Nazi defense ring around the
city and for 60 days the Polish
underground fought on with sup
plies dropped by Allied planes. FL

nounced his partisan forces had
surrendered.
The futile, bloody uprising
caused serious political repercus-
sions among the Allies, which Ger
man propaganda quickly utilized.
Before the Polish capital fell to
the Germans in 1899, more than
60, 900 persons of whom more than
half were women and children had
been killed by Nazi dive-bomber
attacks and heavy artillery bar
RACES. Some 100000 other civilians
were wounded.
Nearly half of the city's 20,650
buildings were wholly or partly de-
stroyed.
An Associated Press correspond
ent who entered Warsaw three
days after it fell wrote:
WARSAW is in ruins.
There is scarcely an undam-
aged building in the center of the
Polish capital. At least hundred
fires were burning in all quarters
of the city. Most of the buildings
had been Quilted and only tiny
wisps of smoke arose from them"
But down through the centuries
Warsaw had felt the heavy hand

strength to rise again.

flogged till he told the womans name.
Messalina then had the woman killed.
On the other hand more than one
lover who seemed oVerflattered by
her need of him was poisoned before
morning. She knew how to keep men
in their place.
At last she went too far even for
her husbands astonishing patience or
wilful blindness. She bestowed her
affections on a young man called
Gaius SiliuS, and her madness took
an unexpected bent toward conven-
ton. She insisted on public wedding,
and invited a number of guests.
The Emperor was at OstIa just
then, but the news reached him and
he came home. Gaius and others
present at the marriage were gra-
ciously permitted to choose the method

Nessalina, the Emperor didn't know.
But the commander of his guard
saved time by telling Messalina to

A A ESSALINA was said TO be the

HVA Rome. Some allowance might
be made for her on the ground that
she didn't live in a wholesome time.
She was the wife of the Emperor
Claudius, who was no model of virtue.
He was the fitting predecessor of
Nero. Perhaps Messalina was misled
by bad example, but this excuse has
to be stretched thin to cover her
terrific record.
She came of a distinguished fam

and it is fair to add she was probably
insane. On one occasion she envied
beautiful garden belonging to a prom

persons to swear that the garden
owner was plotting against Claudius.
When the garden owner had been ar

a little poison in the wine cups of the

Neither can a lot of other GIS

Just across the river from Luxem-

fraterniZe with NaZi civilians, but
they could look-and their dream girl
was an eyeful.
The first time they saw her, she
came out the back door of a farm
house. She was dressed in filmy
white outfit. AT distance she
looked like a ghost, but through BIZ
nocularS she was solid, in the tech
nical and colloquial sense of the word.
In the moonlight her long, blond
hair fell about her shoulders like
spun silver.
She walked alone, and didn't seem
to be quite sure where she wanted
to go. The flashes of Yank artillery
and machine guns didn't seem to
bother her. She drifted through a
shell pocked field, back and forth, for
ward and backward. Now and then
she stopped.

The machine gun chartered and
little puffs of earth sprung up around
the woman in white. For dramatic
instant she held her ground. The
next burst, studded with the fiery
streaks of tracer bullets, almost
ripped the shoes off her feet. Then
she ran for a patch o. woods.
The gunner didn't like the idea of
banging away at an unarmed woman,
but he had his orders and kept his

The next night, about twilight, she
appeared again and went through the
same seemingly aimless maneuvers.
This time she circled silently to the
south. She seemed uncertain of
where she wanted t. stop.
The boys were making some salty
cracks about what the girl was up
to, and how charmed they'd be TO
meet her socially, when an officer
from headquarters arrived at the
front line ION the double"
Where's that woman, now?" he

A machine gunner pointed her out
