Fold the blanket, making the seam, formed by bringing the two ends together, run on the under-side along the centre of the doubled blanket, not on the edge.

"You can wait," said he to the driver.
The butter had been bad she must speak to the matron. The sterilizer in the operating-room was out of order that meant a quarrel with the chief engineer. Requisitions were too heavy that meant going around to the wards and suggesting to the head nurses that lead pencils and bandages and adhesive plaster and safety-pins cost money.
