No
Surprise
But
Important
...
The
fact
that
there
was
so
little
element
of
final
surprise
about
the
occurrence
may
have
had
the
effect
of
making
us
fail
to
appreciate
the
importance
of
our
capture
of
Naples,
the
largest
city
which
has
been
taken.by.
our
side
so
far
in
this
war.
The
enemy
is
not
giving
up
cities
like
Naples
for
any
other
reason
that
he
is
obliged
to
do
so,
either
from
the
standpoint
of
immediate
or
long
range
military
exigency.
There
may
be
no
very
serious
defence
of
Rome
and
the
retreat
of
the
Nazis,
with
little
more
than
rearguard
action,
may
well
go
much
further
north
than
that
in
Italy.
However;
we
may
count
on
a
real
enemy
star,d
somewhere.
We
cannot
expect
the
going
to
.continue
as
easy
as
it
has
so
far.
Our
losses
in
this
.campaign,
and
there
Jiave
been
losses
we
realize,
have
not
been
anything
like
we
may
yet
expect
to
suffer
before
it
is
over.
We
are
justified
in
feeling
satisfaction
in
how
things
are
going
so
far
but
we
should
be
prepared
to
face
further
and
greater
shocks
J
and
sacrifices.
Of
one
thing
we
may
be
sure
this
j
war
will
not
be
won
in
Italy.
That
is
not
where
thi!;
enemy
strength
lies.
DICKENSiAN
CHARACTERS
The
men
of
the
forces
and
the
women
too,
to
say
nothing
of
the
lady
friends
are
appreciative
of
ntertainment
of
a
high
class
order.
This
was
amply
demonstrated
by
the
acclaim
that
was
accorded
that
great
Dickensian
character
por-trayer.

in

Capitol
Theatre.
Captain
Armitage
wanned
up
his
show
with
a
quantity
of
good-natured
banter
at
the
opening,
.when
he
circulated
up
and
down
the
aisles
to
get
at
the
audience
in
a
personal.
Informal
way,
dispensing
some
factual
Information
about
the
life
of
Dickens
as
he
did
so.
The
Internationally
famous
entertainer's
program
was,
of
course,
featured
by
his
Dickensian
portrayals
