ACCIDENTAL DEATH

... .' By GEORGE BETTANY. JUST in case you don't know it, said the middle-aged sergeant of the Home Guard, with a sort of patient bitterness, this weapon is known as the Sten gun. The magazine holds thirty-two rounds, and the calibre-- but no, that's much too secret. Only me and two million others know that. He paused to give the laughter time to subside.

MOTLEY NOTES: Mapcraft

... MOTLEY NOTES. By ALAN KEMP Mapcraft. I thought my geography was coming along nicely, but it is always getting jolts and set-backs. No sooner had I mastered the latitude and longitude of Omsk and Tomsk, and grasped the strategic significance of Minsk and Pinsk, than I found it all wasted. Now I have to perpend how and why Czernowicz comes to be Cernauti (which seems to me quite unreasonable), ...

... P(uiM,h!0!i- By JOYCE DENNYS. MY DEAR ROBERT-- Doctor Rival, much to everybody's disappointment, is one of our friends, and he sometimes drops in here on his way home of an evening. A few nights ago he was sitting by our fire while he and Charles were engaged upon one of those sardonic, disillusioned conversations which doctors are so fond of.
