THE NORTHLAND ECHO 51 wonder if the hidden one wasn't an iron claw. Enter Mussolini Mussolini: Mr. Chamberlain, I just had to see you,before I left. You see. Hitler has been forcing my hand and making demands on me. Chamberlain: Really. From the conver- sation I would never dream it. You appeared to be so friendly. Mussolini: On the surface. On the sur- face, that's all. Oh Mighty Caesar, pardon my seek- ing aid, but the day has come when I must get help. Can't you understand Mr. Chamber- lain? Chamberlain: Yes, of course. I under- stand. You were thinking that WE should go against GERMANY? Mussolini: Exactly! Exactly! How did you ever think of it? Chamberlain: Oh, things come to me like that you know. It's the English kind of mental telepathy. We always can tell what the other fellow is thinking and then we just beat him to it. Mussolini: Oh, is that right? - Chamberlain: But don't look so wor- ried, Benito, my boy. Mussolini: Oh, I'm not. I just thought maybe we had better postpone any arrangements until later. Chamberlain: Yes, a very good idea. You run along and mind your P's and Q's and let the 'old fossil' take care of things. And, he will. Mussolini: Yes-Well, good-bye and remember, I'm your friend. Chamberlain: Yes, I know, I have two great friends like you. Nice fellows. Exit, Mussolini Chamberlain: 1Leaving the stagel flaugh- ingb Cha, hai My English sense of friendship has been seriously strained.

And false friendship will not open it, so as to take anyone else into its folds, Exit Chamberlain lEnter News Boyl HEXTRA! EXTRA! Hitler invades Balkans, Mussolini in turmoil, Brit- ain stands firm.
