I don’t know’ how to , make that sound, or how to spell it,' but there isn’t a boy of five years old or more who doesn’t spend at last part of each day imitating a machine gun, or an ack-ack gun. as 1 he "mows down” his friends, his cats and his dogs. Warfare, patterned after t h e f sketchy knowledge which small boys; j have of what is going on in Europe and the Pacific today, has become 1 the schoolboy’s favorite game. Dig- j ging foxholes has taken the place of biulding huts, shooting toy guns is i considered more fun than throwing balls and “dive-bombing” anything in sight is a thrilling pastime. Even before he is old enough to read the newspapers, a boy of today gets a thorough education in warfare. Lynchburg.
