The hospital at the Port is a quiet place these days compared to its wartime bustle, ,but none the less efficient. The Senior Medical Officer or as the boys know him, the SMO, is Wing iCommander G.

At present the surgery and other cases requiring specialist attention are sent in to Westminster Hospital in London. The station hospital is equipped however to handle emer­ gency and crash cases and have one ward and an operating room ready for that purpose at all times.

General concen­ sus of opinion seemed to be that it was a good idea that would have been a lot better if held at the port away from the other attractions at the Bend. Quite a few airmen hailing from large cities are making the discov­ ery that amateur entertainment can be more fun -than professional offerings. To wit, their attendance at Strawlberry Socials. An airman of my acquaintance hitch hikes to London about three times a week to see his light-o- love.

V I How d©eS at help Some may not realize it but there is hardly a job that doesn’t depend in some degree on chemistry. It often provides the raw material or is a vital element in product treat­ ment. In many cases the finished article is entirely chemical. Chemistry’s contributions to the home and individual are countless. Chlorine purifies the water we drink. Textiles are chemically treated to give them wearing qualities. Chemi­ cal fertilizers mean bumper crops. Chemistry produces paint, tans leather. As "Cellophane” it protects things we buy; as nylon or plastics, it serves us endlessly.
