Not, of course—to. please the lune guid—that they should sing their retrain in any vengeful spirit, but rather that they should do so in a perfectly Christian spirit merely rebuking. evil without. com= mitting it themselves. "For the children will probably not be allowed bonfires, nor fireworks in the nightly blackout, and all that It will be possible 10 do. will be to take the "dowdy, fantastic Mgure" to the nearest lamp Post and. there perform those final rites which were so defily carried out in days gone by by the famous Jack Ketch, "Yes, the Guy will have to be hanged this year, unless of course he is burned in the light of day, wholly unsatisfactory proceeding $0. far' as the youngsters would be concerned. - Perhaps after all the lamp post would be belter, for then the guy could' be Jeff hanging like the felons were at Tyburn, a reminder of the man who delights in larger fireworks with which to slaughter children, though after all there is. great deal to be said for the bonfire, even in the day time, for then the kiddies could dance round it and chant their glee as they see Hitler getting littler in the Mames.
