Enmity of Gamin The Brussels gamjn is one of the most spirited of Europe’s little vulgar ‘boys, and-he is not taking the German occupation lying down. One of his favorite amusements when there is a German in sight is “Going to Paris.” Tt consists of doing the goose-step, but not marching—only making time. And if you ask him why he does not march ke explains with glee: “Pm goi to Paris: that's why I'm not moving!” He lets himself go, needless to say, in in- scriptions chalked on the walls. One of his ciieckiest and therefore one of his fayorites is “La Belgique est fermee a cause de I'agrandissement!” (‘“‘Bel- -gium is cloeed . for extensions!”)— Manchester Guardian. Soctking Silence.
