    Safe From BombsIt was past midnight and the air raid sirens began to wail all over the

    city. This warning meant that there was going to be an air raid from theenemies.

    A little boy was woken by the siren. He ran quickly downstairs to his

    parents. Together they ran out into the garden towards a door half-buriedin the earth. They hurried in and closed the door behind them and soonthey could hear the drone of aeroplanes overhead as they hid in the airraid shelter. They could feel the earth shake as bombs began to fall.

    In the shelter, the little boy was tucked into bed by his mother. Next tohis bed was a little night-light, just in case he was afraid. He didn't likebeing in the shelter, even though it was a safe place to be. It was both hotand stuffy with water leaking from the walls and ceiling. Sometimes he hadto stay there for hours.

    Many families built shelters in their gardens. Those who didn't had to

    run to public shelters. Many spent the night in underground railway stationsjust to be safe from the bombs.

    During the Second War World, which began in 1939, there werethousands of air raids. Towns all over Europe were destroyed by bombsand hundreds of thousand of innocent men, women and children werekilled.

    The Enigmatic ManIn the 1870s, there lived a man of honour and one of the finest

    gentleman England had seen. He was Fogg. He had riches but nobdoyreally knew where he accumulated all his wealth for he certainly kept a lowprofile of himself.

    Fogg had never been seen at a bank and his name did not appear inany of the clubs in the country. Neither had the Port Of London everaccomodated a ship owned by Fogg. He was not a businessman nor washe a manufacturer or a farmer or a merchant.

    He spoke as little as he possibly could and his silence made him seemall the more mysterious. He was not extravagant but he was not a miser.

    Whenever help was required for some noble or useful cause, he wouldgive generously and often anonymously.No one had a better knowledge of the map of the world than Fogg. No

    matter how remote a place was, he seemed to know all about it.Sometimes, with a few brief, well-chosen words he would correct theremarks made by others about places and events in other parts of theworld. Strangely, he was always proven right in the end.

    As far as people knew, Fogg had neither wife nor children, which isnot unusual for most honourable men. But the unusual thing is, he had norelatives or friends. He lived alone and no one ever entered his house. For

    all these reasons he remained an enigma to those who had met him.

    The speaker was Mr Thomas. The place was a typical schoolclassroom. Mr Thomas' tone of voice was inflexible and dictatorial. At the

    "It's my friends who always call me Sissy, sir," replied the little dark-haired girl in a trembling voice. Her large brown eyes fixed upon MrThomas, barely daring to blink.

    "Then do tell them that you should not be called Sissy anymore.""Yes, sir. I shall do that.""Children, you must all understand that we are each given a name.

    This name must be respected and no one should make fun of this name ofyours. We must address each other politely and changing someone's nameis definitely not the right thing to do. I want you to bear this in mind.Understood?"
