with excitement. It was a first
rate dilemma. Ruth would not
come without DAM and Mrs.
Brown would not leave without
Ruth. Just then DAM, aged five.
appeared, smiling brightly at Mrs.
Brown and that settled the matter.
She took the two of them.
The weeks that followed proved
exhausting. The pair were little
more than 'savages and education
had to start from scratch-Or, as
Mrs. Brown soon discovered, from
somewhere far below. Ruth, aged
seven, and DAM, aged five, had
the habit of hiding their belong
ings, shoes in particular, and ex-
plain that they were needed FOR
wandering. They ate as if there
never was another meal, they re-
fused to undress at night, "darl--
ness is dangerous" in short they
were the haunted little beings
Europe had made them. Ard no
habits are harder to give up than
those formed by danger and fear.
But finally patience, pity and
understanding succeeded. After a
few months the children were al
most normal. It was then that it
happened. Mrs. Brown, to keep
the pair quiet, had given them an
old photo-album containing the
usual family pictures. Chattering'
and laughing they were turning
the pages Suddenly silence
fell. Mrs. Brown looked up. The
children stared at a picture, open
mouthed, trembling-and then the
girl screamed and DAM broke
down Historically. They kept
pointing at the picture, both cry
ing as they had never cried be-
fore; and out Of their sobbing
came one word "Mummi' over and
over again. There was Mummi,
on that photo, standing near Mrs.
Brown. Mrs. Brown also began

trembling. "Mummi" was her
sister 4!
In a place like Palestine where
everything is SO mixed up, cOinci-
dences like the above are bound
to occur. They 60 to show that
everybody here really is the guard
Ian Of his brother, that every ship
that comes In gives hope to all,
that a lost dear one might have
escaped hell and reached heaven.
The scene shifts to Rata, a de-
tention camp in southern Pales-
tine. The deteainees are mostly
members of collective settlements
and have, considerably, been de-
tanned collectively. There were no
charges against any one of them
and while they have been released
some time ago, without trial, the
reason for their arrest has never
been given. Among those thous-
ands kept behind barbed wire were
many ex-Soldiers-a of them vol
unteers And among the ex-soldiers
were many ex-officers, some of
them with many decorations.
1t was a sweltering hot day in
August and the detainees were sit
ting or strOlling about, trying IL
kill time and boredom. They were
an Odd-lOOking lot, having been
dragged from their homes without
even a change of clothes. COnse-
QuentIy, holt of their belongings
always adorned the lines-the
complete outfit consisting of khaki
shirts, shorts and underwear. You
could wear either the former or
the latter, or crOss-breed them, If
you liked a change of clothes.
Ex-Lieutenant David was stroll
ing about, looking across the barb
ed wire, across freedom. He mad
been here for six weeks, had read
all of the two books available, ha6

Responses were numerous ana
the prospective parents were care
fully chosen. Among the eligi-
HES was a lady from Petach
Tikvah, whom we shall call Mrs.
Brown. Formalities over, Mrs.
Brown was given an opportunity
to get acquainted with the child
rem What she wanted was a girl,
preferably of school age.
There were about twenty OF
them playing among the other
children. They came from all the
hide-outs of Europe and few Of
them owned even a name. 1t was
