This man (UPPER LEFT) came to the country penniless from Nazi territory. For the first time in many days these refugee ’children (UPPER RIGHT) -were given a taste of normal play under trained super­ visors when they -arrived at the Bruenn Camp with their parents. Continuous streams of refugees from Germany and Austria still flee across the border into Czechoslovakia. One large camp has been established at Bruenn to care for them until some scheme for finding them a permanent home can be devised. Most of them come to the camp without money.

Were I to know that I was going to die, what would I be thinking. About the time I sold Joe Hawkes the \ horse that was going blind. True he had pulled the same trick on me, some few months before.

He was lying in the hospital cot, and it seemed to me as the sheets outlined his form that he was only a shadow of his former self. The re­ sult of two months of sickness. I had called to see him, and the subject of sickness was completely avoided. We talked about everything from the weather to the crops and Mrs. Ed Hine’s new baby. Then at last his voice sort of rasped out in a whistling way and his bony hand puckered the sheet up into a knot . . “It ain’t so serious, Hank. The doc­ tor doesn’t say much about it, and I figure if it was real serious he would tell me.” Yes, Joe knew and I knew, that doctors are quiet about such things. It was serious! Silence sort of crept in then! That very quiet and strange sort of stillness that pinches you away like to sit down and think that we’re going to die. I couldn’t help wonder­ ing what my thoughts would be like if I were going to die! Would I be sorry for some of the nasty and spiteful remarks that'I made on occa­ sions? But like everybody else I side­ stepped the issue and made some ex­ cuse to leave. Here was Joe Grant, and the last time I saw him he was considered the strongest man on the Cmcession!

I tried to speak once or twice, rubbed an imaginary cinder out of my eye and then heard my voice away off some place say­ ing . . . “Shucks, no! I expect you'll* be back on the concession in time to take up the taters.” He smiled! It was only a mechan­ ical motion that moved the faded cheeks that were tanned a deep-brown only a few weeks before. Of course I couldn’t read his mind, but I expect that he was^thinking just how much he would like to be back on the farm. For a moment, there was* a light in his eyes, almost as if he had a vision of his home . . . and how Fall was a mighty lot different on the farm than it was in hospital. Therc’d be apples to harvest, and silo-filling, and neigh­ bours dropping in for a chat . . . and then he remembered and the light went from his eyes. The conversation drifted back to other matters but it was hard to keep your conversation away from the thing yon were thinking. Death shoudn’t be such a terrible thing to think of!
