was finally posted to Her Majesty The Queen asking that It be put In a bomb shelter Weeks went by with no word then we got the news that all the parcels shipped overseas for our men the forces had been lost at sea Torpedoed by the enemy In those days our ships had to be convoyed overseas because of enemy submarines I well remember a ship with 300 nurses being bombed the rest of the convoy being helpless in giving aid So that was why my quilt did not reach its destination I had said as I posted that quilt Now If the enemy gets my quilt there will be a one woman war with me and Mr Hitler It was at this time that a notice hadappeared In The Herald from The lions Club who had been collecting fats In a little shed at the rear of what is now Sienkos Shoe Repair but they found that the shed had also become a breeding place for rats and regretfully announced that they were forced to discontinue their effort Since had a huge basement 120x30ft Idecldedtoplckupthe challenge and wrote a poem with this title Song of Victory as usual the Editor published it with a hang this in your kitchen Next the teachers at school took up the challenge It was written on the blackboard and the children copied It down and took It home to mummy It worked 1 had fats brought in via pop bottles babies Pablum boxes etc even in quart baskets was 1 a busy woman Next came word that Andy Clark bad given my poem top spot on his Sunday morning broadcast and of all things a telephone call from Claire Wallace news My Sundays till Evensong at St Georges Church were spent In melting and straining the fats
