The Echo? I don't know what to think. You see, we don't read newspapers much at school. Some of the masters do. And a few chaps in the Fifth--swank, of course. But speaking generally we don't. Prefects don't. No time. (TRANTO: How strange! Aren't you interested in the war?) Interested in the war! Would you mind if I spoke plainly? (TRANTO: I should love it.) Each time I come home I wonder more and more whether you people in London have got the slightest notion what war really is. Fact! At school, it's just because we are interested in the war that we've no time for newspapers.
