{ i { i : ES Posters like the one above which has been appearing on walls and buildings all over Bel- gium are striking evidence of the preparations that the underground organizations of occupied Europe are making to play their part in the coming invasion of the continent. The plans which the military leaders of the United Na- ' tions are making call for an intensification of sabotage, guerilla warfare and organized re- sistance to synchronize with the attack on the continent. The people of the occupied countries . are experienced in this kind of secret, deadly warfare, have fought it five years. In Poland and Czechoslovakie, in Holland, Denmark and Luxembourg patriots have risked their lives to fight the invaders in their midst and put a spoke in the wheels of the Nazi war machine. Coordinated with the strongest invasion force in history and armed with smuggled weapons . they will carry the Battle village and railroad yard, home and factory. ‘The Hour Approaches’ And A Secret Army Intensifies [ts Fight _ Behind the Enemy Lines of Europe into every In the ‘Greek mountains and the mountains of Crete hard-bitten fighters like these have harassed the Axis with many surprise raids.

Here in Oslo an eager crowd gathers in front of a house where two quisling informers have been executed by Norwegian patriots as an ambulance arrives to remove the bodies of the spies. sSabotage is a powerful weapon, particularly when it is directed against Nazi transport and communications.

From Pillar To Post (Continued from Page One) afternoon train on Saturday, or possibly by bus sometime during the evening. So I sally forth and work on the butcher, parting with sixty-five red points and bearing home in triumph a roast of beef the size of a young calf, a roast which the butcher has been saving for another customer. Nothing but beef will do for the visiting English, beef naturally ac- companied by Yorkshire Pudding and buttered asparagus. Hands a- cross the sea, the good neighbor- hood policy, and all that sort of tosh. Saturday night brings no Bilge- waters, and we view the ice-box with alarm. Not that we are physically incapable of dealing com- petently with sixty-five points worth of roast beef, but we regret such wholesale squandering unless strictly necessary in the cause of hospitality. At midnight we get a long-dist- ance telephone call, some what fuzzy in character because of the connection or because of the night- club. The Lord and Lady Bilge- water have been unavoidably de- tained, but they still hope to spend at least one night in Wikes-Barre. I reply with considerable asperity that unless they can arrive in time for Sunday dinner they may as well settle down to a steady round of night life in New York. That there’s a sinfully large roast of beef waiting for the oven. The comeback to this ‘is that roast ‘beef makes excellent hash and that warmed gently with a brace of dropped eggs nested in a slight depression, a serving of hash makes a wholly desirable Sunday night supper, a Monday morning breakfast, or even a Monday noon lunch. - With plenty of coffee, of course. But I detect signs of weakening, especially when I describe a de- lightfully browned exterior, crusted delicately with salt and pepper, and a rare and lusciously pink interior. On Sunday at eleven A. M. I give up and philosophically shove the roast in the oven. At noon we get a telegram from Easton: “Warm fatted hash. Will arrive at one-thirty,” The guests installed, we discover that since their last visit Lord Bilgewater has taken up card tricks, bone-rolling, and legerdemain. He is a living exponent of that slogan, “The hand is quicker than the eye”, and he states with pride that he has recently become an accredited member of the American Associa- tion of Magicians. While I stir the beef gravy with, one hand, I choose a card with the other. It is always the card that Lord Bilgewater expected it to be, and it is baffling, leading to lumps in the gravy. While I remove the baked potatoes from the oven, Lord Bilge-| water slips a rope around my capa- | cious waistline, tying it securely, and inviting me to step out of it| without disturbing the knot. I tell. him to go and play games somewhere else if he ever expects any dinner, and with a yearning backward glance at the roast he drifts off to astonish the baby with vanishing tricks. After dinner he engages td make a small glass of White Horse Scotch completely disappear. Having seen Lord Bilgewater make White Horse Scotch in somewhat larger glasses completely disappear on several former occasions, I am not too sur- prised. But it appears that this time the White Horse will disappear entirely by magic instead of by the ordinary or-garden route of down- the-hatch. He holds the small glass in his hand, palms it adroitly, and it is gone.

Another expert pass, and | here is the small glass again, empty. | I sniff suspiciously, but there is no haunting fragrance, no telltale spot on the floor. The Adams Apple is quiescent, the face a mask of in- nocence. Lord Bilgewater offers magnifi- cently to perform the trick all over again. He refills the glass, once more palms it expertly, once more returns it empty. This happens six times. Lord Bilgewater’s eyes are becoming somewhat glazed, but his hand never falters. The level| of Scotch in the White Horse bottle is falling steadily, and Tom eyes it mournfully. It is ordinarily kept in the cupboard under the china closet for medicinal purposes only, and in case a snake should sneak into the house. I can see that Tom thinks a snake has already made the grade. I suggest that Lord Bilgewater demonstrate some card tricks in- stead of palming White Horse in- definitely, and he regretfully riffles his patent deck. While he explains the intricacies of the deal, I unob- trusively remove the White Horse.
