My yell wag drowned by the impact of its huge body against the ars and I was hurl ed headlong among Safe! I got off lightly with a broken arm and shoulder." The narrator of the next story spoke as follows: "While waiting for a train on to go into the waiting room There he told me that his only son had been killed in the great war but the boy's mother be- lleved each year that hs would return at Christmas time, Ke- cently she had become blind and helpless and the ony craving she had in the world was to fae her boy near her. She had forced her husband to meet each train, For the sake of his wife the hus- band on seeing me hac deter- mined to stage a bold deception. I was, he sald, of similar physi- que and age as his own boy go he pleaded with me to take his son's place. I finally agreed and on the journey listened to a reci- tal of the part I was to play.

In my immediate vicinity were some repulsive- locking witches murmuring in- rsntations round a cauldron sup- posed to be full of hell-broth. At 3 a.m. the costumes were doffed ing dress. The host shouted 'to hades with everything and every semblaj ce of spookdom was thrown at me.
