I finally had to telephone the Commanding Officer of Mitchel Field, and as he didnt know me, all he could say was that an officer by the name of Lieutenant Scott was supposed to be on the way to Mitchel from Kelly. Anyway, I still dont think I looked even then like Pretty Boy Floyd. My arrival at my new station was the start of a hectic time for the Air Corps.

If you have over-draper- y a power machine and have learned to use the attachments there is quite a saving in making your own frilled curtains, dressing table skirts and bed valances. If you do not have a power machine or the use of one, by all means buy your frills. Sometimes an extra pair of curtains makes a skirt for a dressing table with very little waste. Curtains that are ruffled all the way around may often be split for bed valances. Also, it is possible to buy ruffled material by the yard. Avoid skimpy fullness. NOTE: Here Is news for homemakers.
