Personalized Services plant?
Have you stopped at the Navy Exchange
Personalized Services lately? If you
haven't, why not stop in today and see
the beautiful plants and fresh-cut
flowers, arriving weekly?
Lately, an assortment of breath-taking
geraniums, easy-to-grow philodendrons
and fast-climbing ivies have been re-
ceived, along with an assortment of
fresh-cut flowers. These plants or
flowers will make a perfect Valentine's
Day present for your loved one.
A plant will last for months, or NEX
will prepare a flpral arrangement. Be
sure to stop by Personalized Services
and check out the plants and flowers
from Reykjavik.
Black Magic potting soil and macrame
pot hangers are in to hang your plants
in style. If you have a plant that
needs to be repotted, you'll soon be
needing extra soil to transfer that
plant to a bigger pot. And, should
you have a plant that is flowing all
over the place, why not get a hanger
and display its beauty in your window?
These hangers are available in assorted
colors. Hurry while the supply lasts.
US flower gift service
Do you have a loved one or special
friend in the states who has a birthday
or anniversary coming up? The Navy Ex- ,
change offers flower gift service to
the United States.
You may order floral arrangements
and sometimes live plants for these
special occasions through Personalized
Services, Bldg. T-19. Orders should
be placed two to three weeks in advance
to ensure prompt delivery on that spe-
cial day.
Check Personalized Services for its
assorted arrangements offered through
the flower gift service.
NavSta patches
Naval Station Keflavlk patches and
assorted iron-on patches are now availa-
ble at Personalized Services. These
patches are in great demand and are fast
sellers. Pick up a patch now.
Clothes project your Image
Keep your winter wardrobe up to your
image. Visit your NEX laundry/dry
cleaning and tailoring facility where

Estee' Lauder reminder
The Estee' Lauder "Gift with Purchase
Promotion" is now underway. NEX is
sure that you will be pleasantly sur-
prised with its free gift with any $6.50
or more purchase of any Estee' Lauder
New births
products. This gift is a kit of five
items that has been named "Great Origi-
nals". It is available only through
Estee' Lauder and is valued at more than
$17.50. For mpre Information, see your
Estee' Lauder Beauty Advisor Sue Dehne
at the Navy Exchange Main Retail Store.

Driftwood luncheon specials
The Driftwood Cafeteria is trying to
please your hungry appetites with its
luncheon specials.
Jackie will make your favorite sand-
wich: Corned beef, pastrami, turkey,
roast beef or ham.
On Wednesdays, Debbie stirs up a
specially priced spaghetti dinner.
And, on down the line, you can find
Mary in charge of the ice cream deli-
cacies. Choose from a creamy milk
shake in a variety of flavors, an ice
cream sundae or a slice of pie, topped
with a twirl of vanilla ice cream.
Be sure to stop by the Driftwood
where service is its business.
Sew and save
Customers of the Sew N Save depart-
ment actually save money in at least two
ways. 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.

TOURS &
TRAVEL
by Madeleine Grimsley
The C-118 will make several trips in
February to Mildenhall, England. 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
