There was a respite from operations today. The introduction of daily news summaries, copies of which were distributed for the first time to all the messes today, provided a new and welcome feature of camp life. One of our cypher officers, 2/Lieut. Newman is taking these news services down from DAVENTRY and copies of his summary are read at the breakfast table so to speak. This news has proved to be much ahead of the daily newspapers and is all the more welcome for this reason, as the latest world events continue to prove of considerable interest to all ranks.
