ENGLAND CAN HAVE IT!
"There never has been, even in our blackest days, any doubt as to our winning the war," writes an elderly woman, living in England, to relatives in New Zealand. "In every letter I get someone says, he is sorry I haven't evacuated to New Zealand. I wouldn't be out of England now for a pension. It is part of my bones, and whatever happens in the coming months, my. only regret would be that I have only my life to offer my country. Believe me, so think 99 out of every 100 people in England today. You speak of running to shelters. Unless compelled (when at the depot for instance), I never go in them; neither do I get out of bed to go to the basement. This may all be wrong, but I can't be bothered, and there are thousands the same."
