That was the actual number of customers served in our store on Christmas Eve our record for a single day. How many we served during the Christmas bazaar we have not been able to compute – but they seemed as numberless as the stars in the Milky Way. We are grateful to everyone for their tolerance in this difficult time. In 1940 we shall continue to supply everything to wear and everything for the home under one roof on the same principles as before. In the days before us our resources and buying facilities should prove to the greatest value to our patrons…….. For we shall use them to maintain this firms policy of London’s lowest prices always.

Farmers wishing to retain young key workers should apply to the County War Agricultural Executive Committee for form NS 100A to be filled in and returned by next Monday week. Applications only in respect of men who have registered but have not yet been called up. Men between the ages of 20 and 27 years are liable to call up. Agriculture is almost a completely reserved occupation but any of military fitness complete exemption is out of the question. There may be a postponement of 6 months where the young man is essential to the farm an no substitute can be found. Therefore farmers who apply must still look for substitute labour. There has been some reluctance to use alternative sources of labour on farms e.g. the WLA. The difficulty is that they have limited skills. It is possible that young men will be released to agriculture, those who leave school at 18 before they are liable for military service. Christmas / Entertainment / Evacuation Kemble Pantomime Trip Sunday School children, day school children, evacuees , parents and friends numbering well over 100 paid a visit to the Empire Theatre Swindon on December 27th to see the afternoon performance of Cinderella.

He was bound over for 2years under the supervision of a Probation Officer and is to receive treatment. Blackout Round About the Countryside by Ralph Arnold A long article on the Black-out includes the following points:- even a small light can illuminate a lot, countrymen are used to creeping about in the dark; town people are appreciating the stars for the first time; street accidents are common e.g. a dog walking to heel suddenly chasing a cat and knocking down an elderly pedestrian. There have been numerous household accidents with people moving around in the darkness rather than risk showing a light. Still it will make us appreciate the long Summer evenings. National Savings Since the National Savings new campaign was launched £1,500,000 has been saved every day. ARP Voluntary Cars Gloucestershire Emergency Committee agreed to pay insurance on volunteer’s cars and ½ d a mile while on duty.

What you have to do. Put your name and address on the counterfoil at bottom of the meat page of the Ration Book NOW. Write on the inside front cover of your Ration Book , the name and address of your butcher. Take your Ration Book to your butcher and let him write his name and address on the meat counterfoil and cut it out. If you move to another district take your Ration Book to the local Food Office an the new district. The numbered coupons must not be cut out yet. This will be done by the butcher when you do your shopping after meat rationing begins. If you have registered before Christmas this registration was unauthorised. You may let it stand and it will be effective. Or if you wish you may register now with another butcher by recovering the counterfoil from the butcher who holds it and taking it to the butcher you now choose. You are free to use any butcher. You must register not later than Monday 8th January. Evacuation / Christmas / Entertainment Entertaining Evacuees Letters to the Editor Dear Sir – It has occurred to me that during this Christmas season much might be done by simple hospitality by entertaining small groups of evacuees two or three or more if there is room in your house. I entertained three in my home on Boxing Day and found it was greatly appreciated. I have discussed this with several since one of whom suggested I should write this letter.

It seems fitting that I would develop a dissertation topic on suntanning in sunny Santa Barbara, where students literally live at the beach. While at the University of California, Santa Barbara (UCSB), I have had the fortunate experience of learning from and working with several remarkable individuals. First and foremost, my advisor Bruce Robertson has been a model for successfully pursuing both academic and curatorial endeavors, and his encyclopedic knowledge has always steered me in the right direction. Laurie Monahan, whose thoughtful persistence attracted me to UCSB and whose passion for art history and teaching students has been inspiring.
