The holidays

1 Jan 1940

82 The Holidays All through our childhood there was magic in these words. As we grew older "the holidays" were looked forward to throughout the working year. But today ... the German armies have over-run half Europe. Thousands have fled from their bombed and burning homes. Invasion threatens our Island. We must put aside all thought of going away for holidays until this war is over and victory is won. So let us speed up our war effort. Let us lend our "holiday money" to the Nation. Put every shilling into National Savings (Savings Certificates, Defence Bonds, National War Bonds, Post Office and Trustee Savings Banks).
