A London Letter

THE WOM: — By Our Dew

London, Sept. 18.

Perhaps the most marked change that the war has wrought is in the censors' attitude to the doings of Ki Queen. Last aut itor who lad had the ten publish that their Majesties had been seen driving in London would have been sent to the Tower at once and probably had his head cut off the same evening, No one except the censors knew why, any more than they know now why papers are not merely allowed, but are actually encouraged to chronicle the Royal doings. It is whispered that the King. and Queen. kicked: strongly against the secrecy in which their doings were shrotided, But of course this cannot be stated for certain or the rs. Six girls at once came!
