EFTS HOLIDAY QUIET
|WITH FEW ON STATION
“|TO WELCOME NEW YEAR

* With a bright new year ahead,
(No. 24 EFTS has plunged back
into harness after the return of
its staff and students from holi-
day leaves. Half the station had
taken five days off at Christmas

Year’s on the grounds. All so-
cial activities were at a stand-
still at the school itself, while
airmen and staff celebrated the
season elsewhere. Only a skele-
ton group remained to carry out
essential work on Christmas Day,
though training was resumed for
a part of Jan, 1.
Special Holiday Dinners

An indication that*most of the
student pilots at the school were
visiting outside this area Christ-
mas Day was the report that not
all the invitations to dinner pro-
ferred by Abbotsford residents
through the Hut and YMCA sup-
ervisor Harvey Orr at the station
found recipients. For those few
who remained on station over
either holiday, however, there
were special dinners of turkey
and all the fixings.

The officers’ mess, the serg-
eants’ mess and the airmen’s
canteen were quiet spots on New
Years- Eve, with only a few
choosing to greet 1944 sanely,
listening to a radio pealing out
the news of the end of the old
and the beginning of the new.

From the flying school came
the only report of motor acci-
dents in the M-S-A Area, how~
ever, as two officers were admit-
ted to the station hospital for in-
juries suffered in separate road
crashes during the period.

e@Dry Coffee Makers
Glass coffee makers should —
be dried thoroughly before
heating. This acts as break-
age insurance. Clean coffee
makers with soap and wat-
er and rinse. Keep electric
units out of water.

eDirt in Rugs
Dirt embedded in rugs and

carpets wears them out too |
quickly. Going over the rug
with the vacuum cleaner
for a short period of time |
two or three times a week
is better than using if once |

Accidents at home can be
prevented with a little fore-
sight. Dark stairs should be
finished in light shades.
Cellar stairs particularly
should be painted with an
edge of white to increase
their safety.

Brooms Last Longer

To make a new broom last
longer, soak it in hot strong
salt water before using it.
This toughens the straw—
makes it more durable.

“weapon of war” — designed to aid victory by keeping the
home in constant repair. “Make it do” is a popular theme at
present—and it stands good for two reasons: the curtailment
of spending directly helps the war effort by helping to ward
and, second, there are so many |
that it is worth while repairing
what you have, saving the money to buy new and improved
articles when they are once more available.
