Rom where I sit ... ly Joe Marshi
Bert Loses the War
Single-Handed
Bert Childer's house burned
down last week, and the only
good thing that came out of it
was it cured him of swearing.
Bert just couldn't think of
words to fit the occasion, so he
just gave up.
Eert admits it was his own
fault. Started with a field fire
which he thought he had under
control, and when he turned his
hack a minute for a breathing
spell, the fire sprung up twice as
fierce. By the time the firemen
arrived, there wasn't much that
they could do.
From where I sit, there's a
moral in Bert's experience. A lot
of us feel we've got the fires of
this war under control... that
we can relax a little, .maybe let
up on buying bonds, donating
blood, or fighting inflation.
Just like Bert lost his fight
against the fire, we can lose this
fight against our enemy if we let
down now. Because war, like
fire, is never over till the last
spark is extinguished.
