English girls are at work somewhere in Midlands in factory given over to making of camouflage aeroplane covers. These are of very strong material similar to that used in construction of aeroplane wings. Covers act as a protection against all weathers, and envelop nose, engine, cockpit, and fuselage of machines. Girls were, before the war, employed in wellknown car factory, but they have since been detailed to this important R.A.F. work.
