By making their creations, they end up with items at a fraction of what similar but factory-finished items cost. On top of that, their NEX privilege en- ables them to acquire the raw materials at significant savings. If the Sew N Save bug hasn't bitten you yet, it's probably because you haven't seen the current selection of fabrics, patterns, supplies and notions. Why not stop by today? Not short-sheeted What is happening, says a linen buyer, is that sheet mills have been quietly changing the information on their packaging of sheets and pillow- cases from "size before hemming" to "finished size." The change does not mean that the sheets are being made smaller. Rather, the idea behind it is to reduce confusion. The markings for fitted sheets, however, remain unchanged. George Washington Birthday Sale Feb. 17 and 18, the Navy Exchange will honor George Washington with a special birthday sale. Many items will be offered at a considerable savings to patrons, including baby items, men's wear, women's wear and children's wear. In the Main Store, you will find specials on jewelry, table cloths, convenience items and electric drills. Don't miss out on this savings.

If you are tired of London and just going on a short trip, the perfect town to visit is Cambridge. This lovely and historical town is just an hour's drive by car or train. A partial list of places to see is as follows: Kings College Chapel: Henry the VI founded this college in 1441 when he was just a teenager. The Perpendicular Chapel is not only the crowning glory but also one of the architectural gems in England, inherited from the Middle Ages. Although started in 1441, it was not completed until the 16th century. Peterhouse is the oldest seat of learning in Cambridge and was founded in 1284. It is located on Trumpington St. Ask for permission to enter at the porter's desk. Trinity College: Located on Trinity St., it was founded in 1516 by Henry VIII from a number of smaller colleges. For admission to the college, apply at the porter's desk. Some other inter- esting and historical sites to visit include Emmanuel College, Queens Col- lege, St. Johns College and St. Mary the Great Church. For an evening of fun, there is the Arts Theater. Almost all the leading stars of Britain have performed here at least one time. The entrance is on Pears Hill. Perhaps the cinema is more to your taste; the Arts Cinema usually has three performances a day. A number of charming shops, boutiques and antique shops are dotted around the town. Heavy clothing suggested If you go, be sure and take heavy clothing because the hotels, and bed and breakfast guest houses do not all have central heating. The guest houses are mostly located on Jesus St.; if you go by train, check your baggage and start knocking on doors. One more word of caution, a good pair of walking shoes is a must! A number of good, inexpensive pubs and restaurants are available. Try a "Plowman's Lunch", a traditional lunch in the countryside, consisting of deli- cious bread and cheese, with a glass of beer or ale. Located about three miles from the city of Cambridge is the American Mili- tary Cemetary on trunk highway a-45 to St. Neotes and Bedford. Taxicabs are located at the Cambridge Station. The cemetary was established on Dec. 7, 1943, the second anniversary of the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor. This site was selected because of its scenic beauty. It covers 30.5 acres and was donated by the University of Cambridge. Designed and landscaped by American architects, 3,811 military are buried . If you are going to London, an alter- nate route exists apart from the usual taxi and train. For two pence, you may call Morley's Gray Coaches at 224225 or 224226. The cost, especially for a group, can be inexpensive. One person is recommended to take charge of collecting the money, and to inform the driver of the pick-up and drop-off destinations. With plenty of room for your luggage, the trip takes about two and a half hours, with a short lunch stop. The driver may take three routes: if you are traveling on a Sunday, the Petticoat Lane route should be avoided because it is almost impossible to get through the traffic and will delay your return trip.- The driver will pick you up in London at one designated place—to be deter- mined by the group. School lunch menu For the week Feb. 13-17 the school menu from the Naval Station Food Service Division will be as follows: Monday: cream of mushroom soup, ham- burgers or cheeseburgers, French fried potatoes, Boston baked beans, pear salad, orange jello, chocolate pudding and des- sert.
