the cost of living has risen 30 per cont since the war and it takes planning to make a pre-war in- come, or one that is much less than pre-war, feed you and clothe you as well as before.

CHILDREN HAPPY

The same problems confront those who have taken in evacuated children, although a rise in Gov- ernment allowances for youngsters over 12 has helped them. e children are all happy in their new siirroutidings. They have taken to country life in a manner which proves conclusively the country is child's natural habitat When they arrived here last September, von could distinguish them from the villagers‘ children by their white faces and strained eyes. Now they're so healthy, strong and roev-eheeked you cannot tell them apart.

Half the time they probably for- get. the reason they are here. ‘rhere are no visible reminders of war for them to see. No sandbags around the churches and schools, no air |raid shelters. The blackout only means drawing the curt-sins for in the country it is always a blackout after dark. If ti: weren't for the newspapers and the radio we should "feel as 1f we lived in another

world.

We have only once sighed for the blackout lights of London. It was after a particularly hard ses- lsion of trying to keep the weather out of doors. 'I‘hen we feli- a wove of nostafgia for that modem flat where keeping simply warm meant liwiddlino something on a radiator ‘or switching on an electric tire; lnot as at our farm. heaving coal and lugging coal oil all day and half the night. Aside from that Lvou can have London. I'm staying evacuated.
