Pope Pius XI publicly praised Herr Hitler for his stand against communism; hence the German bishops withdrew their opposition to the dictator.

Bernard (Ben as he is called most of the times) is busy picking some wildflowers, Jacqueline is on the way to show her selection to her grieved little brother Kees, Marie expecting her 4th child (Frans) and Antoon is enjoying his cigar, I’ll bet it was an Ajebo his own brand.
