It delivered practical advice which was to improve their fate. Different literary compositions, old and present, were published. Thanks to its educational supplements it substituted school education for children who were deprived of Polish school after the transportation to the USSR. The magazine also tried to assure the constant the link between Poles exiled to the USSR and countrymen in other countries of the world.
