NEWSPAPER DIES WITH WAR
The trench newspaper died with the
end of the world war, but in England
and France today there are not a few
soldiers who, although naturally Joy
ous at the thought of peace, betray a
degree of sadness because of the die
appearance of these famous tittle pub
lications.
Editors and reporters were sought
■cut to serve the occasion from all
ranks and conditions. * Typewriters,
; papers and pencils were spirited frem
i somewhere, arid the trench papers
were produced, In most casee,on the
firing line.' They had to ovsrcome in
numerable difficulties. Laughing at
death and destruction, it was their
mission to lighten the task of the
'fighting men.
' But now the little papers have been
scrapped. Editorial offices in the
shape of dugoute, bell tents and bro
ken-down huts were stripped with the
signing of the armistice, and the
Squlo, Rocket and Patrol remain only
as memories.
It is said of one of these little pub
i ((cations on the British front that not
ohe of the original editorial staff liv
ed to read the last words of the pa
: per they brought Into being. Men came
■nnf went; but the paper was preserv
ed Until the last.
